Video Lab and Agentic Studio generate from a prompt or a still on a monthly plan. Director is a live H3 Max WebRTC session you steer mid-stream, not a Video Lab batch. Last Frame is a playable film: pick a world or describe your own, then live with whatever the last generated frame shows. Ad Lab makes on-brand static ads, cinematic tip packs, Proof packs, and Explain films. Finished clips land in your library.
Video Lab generates from a prompt or a still across frontier models. Agentic Studio takes a brief to a clip. Director is a live H3 Max session you steer mid-stream.

Video Lab is one workspace for text-to-video and image-to-video across curated frontier models. Choose a model, add a prompt or still, generate, and keep the completed clip in your Clip Studio library.
Agentic Studio turns a brief into a clip. Write a prompt or add a still, then generate. Talking Shorts make talking-head ads from a URL. Product-style ads can also be set up in the same studio.
Director is a live H3 Max WebRTC session: you configure a prompt, stream video and audio, send a new direction mid-scene, stop, and save the recording. It is not a Video Lab batch. Each plan includes a monthly generation limit; session length is quoted before you go live.
Last Frame is a playable generated film. Pick a catalog world or describe your own, then play. Clip Studio generates each shot as you watch; whatever happens on screen is what happened. Finished shots land in your library as MP4s.
Type a topic and Clip Studio drafts a script, matches stock footage, adds a voiceover and captions, and renders a short you can post — no camera or editor. Eligible new accounts can try up to 3 Topic Shorts; introductory offers vary. Each introductory short is up to 30 seconds.
Ad Lab generates on-brand static ads from a website, cinematic tip packs and Proof carousels for feed, and Explain ads from a product photo. Paste a website to capture company DNA, lock a layout and marketing angle, then render stills. Or open tip pack, Proof, or Explain mode without a company. Explain is a stitched 9:16 film with voice and captions — not a Video Lab prompt.
Video Lab and Agentic Studio run on monthly generation plans: Content Creator at $9, Clip Pro at $19, Studio Elite at $39, and Studio Scale at $99. Each plan includes a monthly generation allowance that resets at the start of the next billing period. Unused allowance expires. Director sessions and Last Frame shots are quoted before they generate. You can upgrade, downgrade, or cancel anytime.
