MAX Mode
Unlock AI image and video generation on paid plans.
What MAX Mode Is
MAX is a toggle in the chat composer for paid plans. When it is on, the agent can generate original media during a build — not only design and animate from the assets you already have.
Without MAX, builds still create motion graphics from your brief, uploads, and library. With MAX, the agent can also:
- Generate video clips — original B-roll, cutaways, backgrounds, or motion derived from an image you uploaded in the chat. Successful clips are saved as assets and placed in your video.
- Generate images — backgrounds, textures, hero stills, illustrations, and logos-from-prompt, in the same visual style as your storyboard.
Generation is capped per build so one slow clip cannot stall everything else: up to two video clips of five seconds each, and up to six images. Need more than that? Split the work across follow-up messages.
Who Can Use It
| Plan | MAX |
|---|---|
| Free | Locked — upgrade prompt when you click Max |
| Starter, Pro, Studio | Available |
| Enterprise | Available |
Your MAX preference is remembered per chat in your browser.
How to Turn It On
- Open a project chat on a paid plan.
- Find the Max control in the composer, next to the thinking effort control.
- Toggle it on (it highlights when active).
- Hover the control to see the capability list: video generation and image generation.
MAX only affects subsequent messages. Turning it off mid-project does not undo clips or images already generated.
When to Use MAX
Use MAX when the brief needs footage or stills that you do not already have:
MAX on — make a 20s 16:9 explainer about cold brew.
Generate atmospheric B-roll between diagram scenes,
and a custom hero still for the open.Skip MAX when you already have logos, product shots, and screen recordings, and you only need motion design, captions, or pacing edits. That keeps credit use lower.
Before vs After
| MAX off | MAX on | |
|---|---|---|
| Motion design from your brief and assets | Yes | Yes |
| AI-generated stills | No | Yes |
| AI-generated video clips | No | Yes |
| Typical credit use | Lower | Higher (generation costs extra) |
Credits
Image and video generation consume credits on top of the usual chat and build usage. Prefer MAX for scenes that truly need new media; leave it off for brand-locked edits that only need your uploaded SVG and copy.
Tips
- Attach a reference image in the same chat when you want generation steered by that look (workspace library assets are not used as image-generation references).
- Still describe aspect ratio, duration, and brand constraints — MAX does not replace a clear brief.
- Pair with Brand Kit and Logos so generated media stays on-palette with your mark.
