What to watch out for
The free trial is limited, and full use needs a paid plan, and pricing can change over time. Generated frames need review and adjustment, and complex scenes may not match your vision exactly, so plan to iterate. Because it relies on generative AI, results can vary between runs. As a hosted tool, availability can vary, so export important storyboards and confirm current terms on the official site before relying on it. When quality matters, export a small draft first to confirm the result before producing the final file. Generated suggestions are for reference only, so verify anything that affects professional judgment or important data.
