Features, improvements, and fixes shipped to fluos — newest first.

Newest first. Every release is tagged so you can scan for what matters.

  • Feature

  1. Release 46Latest

    10-minute exports and faster switching between videos

    Export videos up to 10 minutes long, download exports your teammates already made, and come back to a video that finished building while you were away without waiting.

    5 changes1 feature
    • Feature
      Exports can now be up to 10 minutes long, up from 5. Longer videos get more time to render, so they no longer stop partway through.
    • Improvement
      If you leave a video while it builds to start another one, its workspace stays ready for 15 minutes after the build ends, so switching back opens the preview right away.
    • Improvement
      Updated the video engine with 73 new blocks and components for the agent to use.
    • Fix
      An export no longer fails when a video clip runs past the end of the composition.
    • Fix
      Downloading an export that a teammate already made of the same video now works instead of saying the file is no longer available.
  2. Release 45

    One agent that remembers your whole chat

    Each chat now runs a single agent that answers questions, plans the storyboard, builds and repairs your video while keeping the whole conversation in context.

    7 changes3 features
    • Feature
      Every chat keeps one agent session, so replies, storyboards, builds and repairs share the same context instead of starting over each turn.
    • Feature
      Your first video starts with a storyboard card and a sheet of illustrated scenes. Choose Approve and build, or Request changes to revise it before anything is built.
    • Improvement
      There is no Edit or Ask-first switch anymore: fluos answers questions in chat and starts a build only when you ask for one.
    • Improvement
      Notes you send while a build is running go straight into that build.
    • Improvement
      The agent gets ready while you type, and your workspace stays available for 15 minutes after you leave a chat, so coming back or sending a new message starts faster.
    • Feature
      Type /compact to summarize a long chat and keep the agent focused.
    • Improvement
      The preview updates unless the video has a breaking error. Layout, motion and contrast issues get one repair pass, and anything left is shown as a review note that links to the moment in the video.
  3. Release 44

    New plans, Boost packs and a free first video

    Pricing moves to Starter, Pro and Studio plans with monthly credits, one-time Boost packs, and free welcome credits for your first video.

    7 changes5 features
    • Feature
      Starter ($19), Pro ($35) and Studio ($75) include 800, 1,750 and 4,000 credits a month. Annual billing is 20% off and refills your credits every month.
    • Feature
      New accounts get 300 free credits for their first video. Chat and planning replies on the Free plan don't use credits, up to 20 a day.
    • Feature
      Boost packs add 1,000, 3,000 or 10,000 credits that never expire. They are available on paid plans and stay saved if you move to Free.
    • Feature
      For 24 hours after signing up, your first month of Starter costs $14 and Pro costs $19. The offer appears after your first video preview finishes playing, and in the sidebar and pricing page.
    • Improvement
      Upgrades in the billing portal apply right away with a prorated charge. Downgrades take effect at the end of the billing period.
    • Feature
      Pro includes two team workspaces where collaborators can edit, and Studio has no workspace limit. Free and Starter workspaces can be shared view-only.
    • Fix
      A checkout that is unpaid or still processing no longer changes your current plan or credits.
  4. Release 43

    A guided first video and full-screen mobile chat

    New accounts get a short guided start that writes their first prompt, and chat on phones uses the whole screen.

    4 changes1 feature
    • Feature
      After signing up, five quick questions about your role, goal and website let fluos write a personalized first prompt in the composer, with hints that show how to describe a video.
    • Improvement
      On phones, the chat fills the screen and the composer floats above the conversation.
    • Fix
      The Google and Apple sign-in buttons show that they are working and can't be tapped twice while the sign-in page opens.
    • Fix
      Pages no longer break when your browser translates them.
  5. Release 42

    More reliable uploads, builds and referrals

    Uploaded videos are analyzed more reliably, builds no longer fail when a project is open in several tabs, and referral rewards work with the new plans.

    3 changes
    • Fix
      Uploaded videos are split into scenes faster and fail less often on long footage.
    • Fix
      Builds no longer fail with a workspace error after a project was opened in more than one tab.
    • Fix
      Referral rewards are paid when a friend subscribes to Starter, Pro or Studio. Rewards are now 300 credits for a signup and 600 credits for a paid subscription.
  6. Release 41

    A clearer direction for motion

    Video planning and creation share a more consistent design direction, with connected transformations, purposeful color and room for the result to settle.

    3 changes1 feature
    • Improvement
      Motion guidance favors a clear visual idea and precise gestures, with readable still holds instead of extra effects added to meet a quota.
    • Feature
      Ask for an abstract teaser, or use @abstract-teaser, to build a short film around one transforming object. It defaults to 12 seconds, with music added when requested.
    • Improvement
      Storyboards and scene builders share guidance for restrained settles, content handoffs, cursor interactions and sound cues while preserving your brand and references.
  7. Release 40

    Builds keep running and protect your saved work

    Video builds continue when you refresh or leave the chat, and follow-up builds pick up from your latest saved composition after a project has been idle.

    6 changes
    • Improvement
      Refreshing or leaving the chat no longer interrupts a build in progress. Only Stop cancels it.
    • Fix
      When a project has been idle, follow-up builds restore your latest saved composition instead of starting over, and never replace it if the saved files cannot be verified.
    • Fix
      Retrying after a failed or stopped build no longer gets stuck on a workspace that has already shut down.
    • Fix
      Stopping a build while it is still preparing is no longer reported as a failed build.
    • Fix
      Closing or stopping a preview in one browser tab no longer stops a build or preview running in another tab.
    • Improvement
      Project setup automatically retries temporary installation errors, and visual-edit snapshots no longer stall when fonts are slow to load.
  8. Release 39

    Clearer billing, downloads, and email preferences

    The billing page and export downloads explain what went wrong and how to retry, and email unsubscribes apply everywhere.

    6 changes
    • Improvement
      If billing details cannot be refreshed, the billing page shows a retry button and a reminder not to pay twice.
    • Fix
      Manage billing explains when the billing portal cannot open, including when a new subscription is still being set up, and no longer stays on “Loading…” after you return with Back.
    • Improvement
      Billing messages and the Manage billing button are available in Spanish.
    • Fix
      Export downloads show a specific message for an expired session, missing access, an unavailable file, or a connection problem, so you can retry the download.
    • Fix
      Attachment uploads and export downloads work in more browser environments.
    • Fix
      Unsubscribing from marketing emails now applies to every fluos marketing email, including sequences already in progress, and deleted accounts no longer receive them.
  9. Release 38

    See the storyboard before your video takes shape

    New video builds start with a scene-by-scene plan and illustrated storyboard that you can inspect in chat while fluos creates the editable composition.

    4 changes1 feature
    • Feature
      First builds show a timed text storyboard and a visual sheet of numbered scenes before the video is authored.
    • Improvement
      The storyboard uses images attached to your current request and verified branding from referenced websites to guide the visual direction.
    • Improvement
      The storyboard image is saved with your project, remains visible after a refresh, and can be opened at full size.
    • Improvement
      Follow-up edits reuse the existing storyboard unless you ask to regenerate it.
  10. Release 37

    Updated image and video generation in MAX

    MAX builds generate stills and short video clips with newer image and video generation, with generated media ready to use in the composition.

    3 changes
    • Improvement
      Generated images use a newer image generation, and completed images appear directly in the build timeline.
    • Improvement
      Generated clips are saved as project assets for the video builder, including clips guided by an image attached in the current chat.
    • Fix
      Video generation chooses a supported aspect ratio for the project and reports when a generated clip cannot be inserted into the composition.
  11. Release 36

    Better continuity across long chats and builds

    fluos keeps earlier instructions in view and leaves your previous preview intact when a build cannot be completed.

    3 changes
    • Improvement
      Builds carry forward recent user and assistant messages, summarize older requests, and can look up exact earlier chat text when needed.
    • Fix
      Incomplete or stalled builds stop with retry guidance instead of publishing a partial video over the previous preview.
    • Fix
      Credit charges use recorded usage, with updated rates.
  12. Release 35

    More reliable builds and attachments

    Video builds recover more cleanly from stalled steps, while chat keeps processed media current and resumed work reuses existing narration.

    5 changes
    • Improvement
      Video builds and repairs now use a more capable model, with credits based on the model used for each turn.
    • Fix
      Builds detect stalled agent activity and preserve a resumable session when a step times out.
    • Fix
      Chat attachments stay in sync with processed media details and avoid duplicate files when a video changes URL or format.
    • Improvement
      Resumed builds reuse narration files already in the project instead of generating them again.
    • Improvement
      Product launch videos can draw on relevant story guidance while staying grounded in your brief and supplied assets.
  13. Release 34

    More focused builds and reliable recovery

    fluos chooses more relevant guidance for your video, targets repairs more precisely, and preserves completed work when a build is interrupted.

    7 changes
    • Improvement
      Smarter request routing and skill selection help builds use relevant production references while respecting your requested edit scope and audio choices.
    • Improvement
      Brief checks flag conflicting audio instructions, missing requested calls to action, and unsupported factual claims for the building agent.
    • Improvement
      Video checks now give the agent focused repair tasks with relevant source excerpts while preserving the original findings and validation requirements.
    • Improvement
      Resumed builds avoid repeating setup and reference loading. Completed, validated work can finish without another generation step when the saved files are unchanged.
    • Fix
      Interrupted builds retain completed edits, check results, and usage records; preview checks retry a temporary checker failure once before reporting it.
    • Fix
      Silent videos preserve explicit runtime and scene timing instead of snapping to a music grid, and clarification replies retain the original request and its constraints.
    • Fix
      Resolved a skill-loading conflict that could prevent video builds from starting.
  14. Release 33

    More ways to export your videos

    Download transparent web videos, editing masters, and individual frames, with advanced controls for output size and color.

    5 changes3 features
    • Feature
      Export WebM, ProRes 4444 MOV, and PNG-sequence ZIP files alongside MP4 and GIF, including through the API and MCP.
    • Feature
      Export compatible compositions in landscape, portrait, or square 4K with SDR color.
    • Feature
      Choose Automatic, SDR, or HDR color for MP4 exports. HDR requires native HDR footage and a compatible player.
    • Improvement
      WebM and MOV preserve composition transparency and audio; PNG sequences preserve transparency as lossless, silent frames.
    • Fix
      Requested HDR exports are checked before download so an SDR fallback produces a clear error instead of the wrong file.
  15. Release 32

    Create several versions from one template

    Reuse a composition with different text or colors and download up to six variants in one export batch.

    4 changes2 features
    • Feature
      Override declared template variables for an export without changing the saved preview.
    • Feature
      Export up to six variants sequentially with numbered filenames. Keep the tab open while the batch runs; normal export limits apply.
    • Improvement
      Template values are checked against declared names and types, and batches stop if the composition changes or a variant fails.
    • Improvement
      Cancel stops the current render and remaining variants, while repeating an unchanged successful variant reuses its completed export.
  16. Release 31

    Remove backgrounds from people in your media

    Ask fluos to turn a person in a library image or short video into a transparent asset for your composition.

    4 changes1 feature
    • Feature
      Create person cutouts as transparent PNG images or WebM clips, with video processing limited to six-second clips at up to 720 pixels and 15 fps.
    • Improvement
      Cutouts are saved to your asset library for reuse, while original media and audio remain available. Transparent video cutouts are silent and can be aligned with the original audio.
    • Improvement
      Updated video-building guidance supports audio mixing, media treatments, and reusable templates.
    • Fix
      Stopped project workspaces no longer prevent follow-up builds and repairs from starting.
  17. Release 30

    Motion builds stay coherent from shot to shot

    Video builds now use a timed production workflow that plans each shot, preserves shared visuals and narration timing, and assembles the final composition with intentional transitions.

    3 changes1 feature
    • Feature
      Multi-shot videos can now be planned and assembled with per-shot transitions, captions, narration cues, and sourced sound effects.
    • Improvement
      Shared product visuals and asset geometry stay consistent across shots instead of resetting between scenes.
    • Improvement
      Video checks surface layout, runtime, motion, contrast, and snapshot findings before the build is finished.
  18. Release 29

    Sharper product captures from the web

    Product demos can now use high-density captures of real website regions without changing the page’s responsive layout.

    3 changes1 feature
    • Feature
      Capture a visible page region by coordinates or exact button/link text and import it directly into the video workspace.
    • Improvement
      Captures retain viewport, scroll, pixel-ratio, and source-region metadata for sharper, better-aligned product close-ups.
    • Fix
      Required visual captures no longer silently fall back to text-only website results.
  19. Release 28

    Chat attachments upload as soon as you add them

    Images and videos now upload the moment you attach them, disappear from the composer as soon as you send, and are deleted immediately when you remove the chip.

    2 changes
    • Improvement
      Home and chat composers upload files on attach instead of waiting until send.
    • Fix
      Sending a prompt with an attachment no longer leaves the draft text and upload progress sitting in the composer.
  20. Release 27

    A more capable model powers every build

    Chat and the build agent now share our most capable model, so planning, building, and repairs stay in step.

    2 changes1 feature
    • Feature
      A more capable model is now the default for chat and video builds.
    • Improvement
      Builds use the same model and credit pricing as the rest of the studio.
  21. Release 26

    One model powers every build

    Chat and the build agent now share one model, so planning, building, and repairs stay on the same model.

    2 changes1 feature
    • Feature
      A new shared model is now the default for chat and video builds.
    • Improvement
      Builds use the same model and credit pricing as the rest of the studio.
  22. Release 25

    Builds keep going after a refresh

    Refreshing the chat no longer kills an in-progress build. fluos keeps the workspace and session alive while a run is active — only Stop cancels.

    2 changes
    • Fix
      Page refresh no longer aborts a live build or tears down its preview.
    • Improvement
      Explicit Stop still cancels cleanly; duplicate tabs don't steal a running build's session.
  23. Release 24

    Folders in the media library

    Organize library assets the same way you organize projects — create folders, nest them, and move clips and images into the right place.

    3 changes2 features
    • Feature
      Create folders in the Library and browse with a folder trail.
    • Feature
      Select assets and move them into a folder (or drop them onto a folder tile).
    • Improvement
      Unfiled vs all-assets views so shared uploads stay easy to find.
  24. Release 23

    Shot list stays in build mode

    When you're just chatting — brainstorming, researching, or asking questions — the To-dos panel stays out of the way. The living shot list still shows up when fluos is actually building a video.

    2 changes
    • Improvement
      Conversation turns no longer show the shot-list / To-dos panel.
    • Improvement
      Chat-mode replies skip the shot-list tool so the timeline stays focused on the conversation.
  25. Release 22

    Credits usage tracks correctly again

    Build turns report usage the way billing expects, so credit balances stay in sync after you create a video.

    1 change
    • Fix
      Credit usage from builds is recorded correctly instead of going missing.
  26. Release 21

    Clearer build progress

    While fluos builds, the thinking timeline uses plain-language steps — checking your video, finishing a project step — and skips internal startup noise so you can follow the real work.

    2 changes
    • Improvement
      Thinking steps use customer-friendly labels instead of raw command/validation jargon.
    • Improvement
      Host bootstrap chatter is filtered out of the thinking timeline.
  27. Release 20

    Visual-kinetic videos by default

    Open briefs now lean into imagery, product, and motion, with on-screen text as accent. Ask for a deck or flat/copy-led look and fluos still honors that mode.

    2 changes
    • Improvement
      Default creative bar prefers moving-image storytelling over title-card or bullet-slide decks.
    • Improvement
      Slideshow, pitch deck, and clean/flat copy-led requests stay first-class instead of being overwritten with maximalism.
  28. Release 19

    Clarifying questions before a build

    When something important is missing — product, duration, tone — fluos can pause with a short question card so you answer with a tap instead of the agent guessing.

    2 changes1 feature
    • Feature
      Interactive question cards in chat with suggested answers (and free text when you need it).
    • Improvement
      Build wrap-ups stay plain-language — internal quality-review jargon is kept out of the chat and preview.
  29. Release 18

    Cleaner thinking steps

    The thinking panel stays readable while fluos works — prose stays, and accidental HTML/JS drafts no longer clutter the timeline.

    2 changes
    • Fix
      Strips leaked code/markup dumps from thinking so you see the plan, not a draft paste.
    • Improvement
      Adjacent thinking and narration merge into one coherent block instead of splitting into duplicate steps.
  30. Release 17

    A new default chat model

    Chat now runs on a new default model, with thinking effort that sticks across the studio and quality gates that catch empty or hard-to-read frames before they ship.

    3 changes1 feature
    • Feature
      A new default chat model, with Extra high thinking supported.
    • Improvement
      Thinking effort is remembered across the home and project composers.
    • Improvement
      Stronger visual checks for empty/black frames, tiny type, and off-stage copy so settled scenes stay readable.
  31. Release 16

    Workspace avatars & stickier switching

    Give each workspace its own look, and fluos remembers which workspace you were in across visits.

    4 changes2 features
    • Feature
      Upload a custom avatar for a workspace (PNG, JPEG, WebP, or GIF up to 2 MB) from Workspace settings.
    • Feature
      Workspace avatars show up in the sidebar switcher and quick search.
    • Improvement
      Your last active workspace is remembered when you come back, and opening a project keeps you in that project's workspace.
    • Improvement
      Skills and Connectors sit with the other studio tools in the sidebar for quicker access.
  32. Release 15

    What's new, in the app

    Product updates now show up next to your notifications, so you can catch new features without leaving fluos.

    2 changes2 features
    • Feature
      A What's new tab in the notifications menu with the latest product updates.
    • Feature
      Inbox for invites and other account notifications in the same place.
  33. Release 14

    Folders & faster project finding

    Keep large workspaces tidy with folders, stars, and a quick search that jumps you to projects, library assets, and settings.

    4 changes3 features
    • Feature
      Create folders and move projects into them from the Projects page or sidebar.
    • Feature
      Star projects you come back to often.

    The dashboard got a focused redesign — clearer sidebar, a home chat to start from, and a Projects page that matches the new layout.

    3 changes1 feature
    • Improvement
      Redesigned sidebar with clearer navigation and project browsing.
    • Feature
      Start a new video from the dashboard home chat.
    • Improvement

    • Feature
      MAX mode: a single toggle that unlocks fluos' most advanced generation, built for Pro.
    • Feature

    • Fix

    • Improvement
      The AI produces better results more directly — fewer back-and-forth steps.

    2 changes1 feature
    • Feature
      Browser push notifications when a video build completes.
    • Improvement
      Faster follow-up builds within the same project.
  43. Release 04

    • Improvement
      The AI recovers more gracefully when a generation needs a retry.
  46. Release 01

    New preview engine

    Rebuilt the composition preview from the ground up for richer, more accurate results.

    2 changes2 features
    • Feature
      Compositions now render on a new engine built for smooth, precise motion.
    • Feature
      Preview runs in an isolated environment so what you see matches the final export.
