Frequently asked questions
Can I try it without signing in?

You can watch every example on this page without an account. Creating a video in the hosted studio needs an invite code for now. Write your prompt, press Create video, and Ivan asks for your code before it starts.

Can I upload a document?

Attach notes, a script, a PDF, a Word file, or a screenshot. You can also paste long text. PowerPoint and spreadsheets are not supported yet.

How long are the videos, and how fast are they made?

Choose a 1, 2, or 3-minute content budget, or let Auto choose the length. The final runtime follows the narration. Generation time varies with the question, length, and service demand; the studio shows progress as scenes become ready.

Can I edit a video after it is generated?

Editing is available for supported saved videos. Request changes to narration or visuals, then review the preview before accepting it. Your saved version stays available while you edit. Some videos currently need to be regenerated to make changes.
