Question 1

What is CanvasVid?

Accepted Answer

CanvasVid is an infinite-canvas AI video studio. Scripting, storyboarding, asset management, character consistency and cloud rendering all happen on one canvas, so a single sentence can become a finished short film in minutes.

Question 2

Which AI model generates the video?

Accepted Answer

The platform runs the flagship video model on our own cloud inference cluster, with two generation paths: text-to-video and reference-to-video. It supports 720P and 1080P resolutions and 16:9, 9:16 and 1:1 aspect ratios.

Question 3

How much does one video cost?

Accepted Answer

CanvasVid uses credits. A free tier includes starter credits, and paid plans or credit packs top you up. Credits are estimated and held when you submit a job, then settled against actual usage, and every transaction is itemised.

Question 4

How long does one video take?

Accepted Answer

A 3-second 720P shot typically takes about 3 minutes from submission to finished clip. Progress streams live over WebSocket so you always see queueing, rendering and completion.

Question 5

How do you keep a character consistent across shots?

Accepted Answer

The character system locks four dimensions: face, body, wardrobe and voice. Reference images are injected through the reference-to-video path, so the same character stays stable from shot to shot.

Question 6

Do I need a local GPU?

Accepted Answer

No. All rendering happens in the cloud on our hosted inference cluster. Any modern browser is enough.
