Quick start

From zero to your first planned costume in a few minutes.

Create an account

Tap Start your quest, it's free on the home page, or go straight to consprint.com/register.

Fill in your name, email address and a password (twice). ConSprint is free, so there's nothing to pay and no card to enter.

ConSprint picks up your timezone from your browser and starts you on US dollars. You can change both in Your account.

Verify your email

We send you an email with a link. Tap it to finish signing up. Until you do, ConSprint asks you to check your inbox.

Try the sample quest

A brand-new account shows an empty dashboard with two buttons: one to start your own quest, and Try a sample quest. The sample is a ready-made plan to poke around in. Mark steps done, log time, change anything. Delete it whenever you like.

Plan your first build

1. Tap + and fill in the quest: its name, the character, your con and its date, and your budget.
2. Add the big pieces of the costume as missions (helmet, chest plate, cape).
3. Break each mission into objectives, and those into steps, each with a time and cost guess. See Missions, objectives and steps.
4. Set how many hours a week you can put in, and ConSprint tells you whether you'll finish in time. See Schedule and pace.
5. Add what you need to buy to the Market.
