Glossary

Build

One run of the agent that produces or changes your video. Builds are what the free plan limits — questions and planning are not builds.

Build mode

The default composer mode. Changes are applied to your composition. See Build Mode.

Composition

The animated document behind your video — the layout, type, motion, and audio that the preview plays and the export renders.

Connector

A read-only OAuth link to an outside tool such as Figma or Notion, so the agent can use material that lives there. See Connectors.

Credits

The unit of AI usage on paid plans. Heavier work — long builds, generated video and images — costs more. See Plans and Credits.

Export

A rendered file you can download: MP4 with audio, or a silent GIF. See Preview and Exports.

Extracted clip

A segment the agent cut out of one of your videos and saved as its own library asset.

Folder

A grouping of projects inside a workspace. Organizational only — it does not change who can see what.

MAX

A Pro toggle that lets the agent generate original video clips and images during a build. See MAX Mode.

Motion quality check

fluos's automatic review of its own output. Frames are sampled and compared to detect scenes that do not actually move, and problems are repaired before you see the result.

Plan mode

A read-only mode that produces a written plan for your approval instead of building. Costs no build. See Plan Mode.

Preview

The live player next to your chat. It runs the real composition, not a video file, which is why you can scrub it moments after a build finishes.

Project

One video, plus the chats, versions, and exports that belong to it. See Projects and Folders.

Proxy

A lightweight 720p-class copy of an uploaded video that fluos edits against, so large source files do not slow every build down.

Reference vs embed

Whether an attached image tells the agent what to make things look like (reference — the default) or is meant to appear on screen (embed). Say which one you want.

Scene index

A timestamped breakdown of an uploaded video — what happens in each shot and how usable it is. It is what lets you ask for "the part where…" instead of a timecode.

Skill

A reusable playbook for a kind of video, loaded by the agent on demand or called with @name. See Skills.

Snippet

A saved block of prompt text — standing brand or style rules that apply to every message in the workspace. See Custom Prompts and Snippets.

Steer

Redirecting a build that is already running, instead of waiting for it to finish and correcting after.

Thinking effort

How much reasoning the agent spends on a turn: Low, Medium, High, or Max. Higher settings are slower and cost more.

Version

A saved snapshot of a successful build. Restorable at any time from Version History.

Workspace

The container that owns projects, library assets, snippets, skills, members, and billing. See Workspaces and Collaboration.
