Guides
Practical guides to the studio: what each model is good at and how to prompt it, what each finishing tool does to a file, and which to reach for when.

Tools
Vectorize1 credit
Turn an image into an SVG you can actually edit
Vectorize converts a logo, icon or flat illustration into real vector paths. What it is good at, what it will quietly ruin, and when to draw the vector instead.
Remove background1 credit
Cut a subject out onto transparency, properly
Remove background returns a lossless image with a real alpha channel. What it handles cleanly, what hair and glass do to it, and where the cut-out goes next.
Upscale1 credit
Upscale an image without inventing detail
Crisp Upscale raises resolution and sharpens what is there. Where it belongs in a pipeline, why you generate small and enlarge last, and what it cannot recover.
Restore photo3.5 credits
Restore an old or damaged photograph
Restore photo repairs scratches, tears and faded colour with FLUX Kontext. What it recovers faithfully, what it reconstructs, and why that distinction matters.
Extract frameFree
Continue a clip from its last frame, or reuse it as a reference
Extract frame saves the first or last frame of a clip as a PNG, free: the start of the next shot in a chain, a reference that carries a look, or a poster.
Add subtitles5 credits
How to caption a short video: pick a style, clear the safe zone
Which caption look suits a short, where to put the words so TikTok and Reels do not cover them, and how to get a transcript worth burning in.
Join clipsFree
Join short clips into one continuous film
Join clips concatenates up to twenty of your own clips into one MP4, optionally under music and a voice-over. Free, agent-driven, and it appends nothing.

Two pictures, fifteen seconds: the first-and-last-frame method
Make the opening frame and the closing frame yourself, hand a video model both, and let it fill the middle. Most models take a last frame. What it buys.
Which image model to reach for, and when
Twelve image models, from half a credit to twenty-one. What each one is for, where the resolution setting changes the price, and when the cheap tier is right.
