New Workflow

Viral Clone is live: turn a short reference into a reusable clone plan before you generate.

This release adds the new Viral Clone workflow for short-form reference analysis. Paste a TikTok or YouTube Shorts link, run fit analysis first, choose a clone strategy, and move into planning and generation with a persisted session instead of ad hoc prompt guessing.

2supported source platforms at launch
5clone strategies to choose from
1session-first clone workflow shipped
  1. Paste a short reference and start from a real analysis session

    Viral Clone now creates a dedicated session from a TikTok or YouTube Shorts link, then persists source analysis, blueprint, and planning artifacts instead of dropping users into a fake or one-off state.

  2. Choose how closely to follow the original

    After analysis, you can choose from five adaptation strategies including Replicate Form, Replace Subject, Replace Scene, Replace Both, and Light Rewrite, so the workflow makes the similarity tradeoff explicit before generation starts.

  3. Move from fit analysis into storyboard, references, and generation

    The new flow connects reference review, storyboard planning, and AI video handoff in one path, making it easier to turn a strong short-form pattern into a controlled remake instead of improvising each shot manually.

Credits & Access

Free users can now start AI Video and Music flows, with clearer credit rules from the first click.

This release removes the old paid-only gate from Viral Growth AI Video and Music entry points, raises free-user starting balance to 30 credits, and makes low-credit states explicit before generation starts.

2free-access workflows opened
30starting credits for new free users
3credit-aware surfaces tightened
  1. AI Video and Music are no longer blocked behind a paid plan

    Free users can now enter both Viral Growth workflows directly. Access is controlled by credits at run time, instead of a blunt paid-plan lock before they can even start.

  2. New free users now start with 30 credits

    We aligned registration, pricing display, and landing page messaging around a 30-credit free starting balance so the product promise matches the actual account state.

  3. Low-credit moments are clearer across entry, editor, and Music Prep

    When credits are below the minimum needed, the product now tells you exactly what is missing and routes you to billing, instead of showing the old paid-workflow messaging.

AI Video Expansion

More ways to start, more model choice, less friction to your first draft.

This release turns Reelsy into a stronger AI video starting point with a larger prompt library, broader model coverage, and faster paths into common creation flows.

900+real prompt starting points
7supported model families
3major workflow upgrades
  1. Start from proven prompts, not a blank page

    Explore a much larger AI video template library with real examples, faster search, and ready-to-use starting points for the kinds of videos creators actually publish.

  2. Choose the right model for every shot

    Switch across more AI video models inside one workflow, whether you need premium quality, faster drafts, stylized visuals, or image-led motion.

  3. Go from idea to first draft faster

    New quick-start flows help you launch common formats like SaaS demos, UGC ads, ecommerce videos, faceless content, and character concepts with fewer setup steps.

Conversion Flow

Clearer plan access and a cleaner route back to the tools that matter.

We tightened upgrade messaging and workspace navigation so users spend less time decoding limits and more time getting back to creation.

  1. Upgrade decisions are clearer

    Plan access and upgrade prompts are now easier to understand, so you can see what you can use now and what unlocks as you scale.

  2. A cleaner workspace, with less hunting

    We refined navigation across the dashboard so it takes less effort to find the tool you need and get back to creating.
