Subscriptions, persistence, and a public gallery
- Stripe-powered subscriptions: Creator ($29/mo) and Studio ($99/mo) plans with plan-aware rate limits.
- Library now permanent: every generation lands in our own Vercel Blob storage so URLs stay alive forever.
- Public /explore gallery showing the latest community work, with a Remix button that opens the prompt straight in the studio.
- Public /g/[id] share pages for every generation, complete with branded social-share cards.
- Branded sample prompts on the Image, Video, and Cinema empty states — no more blank canvas.
- New /account page to see your plan, usage limits, and manage billing.
- New /legal/terms and /legal/privacy pages.
- Mobile layout fixes in the Library tab and bigger tap targets in studio controls.

Moved to the apex domain
- studio.visualseffect.com retired — VisualsEffect Studio now lives at visualseffect.com.
- Old links 301-redirect to the new domain so nothing breaks.
- Full SEO refresh: sitemap, robots, JSON-LD structured data, dynamic OG images.
- Per-user rate limiting and a server-side model allowlist to protect API spend.
- Cleaned up 500+ lines of dead code and unused dependencies.
improved
Image & Video grouped model selectors
- Models are now grouped by capability (T2I, I2I, Edit, Tool / T2V, I2V) with colour-coded badges.
- Inline warning when a model needs a reference image you haven't uploaded yet.
- Cinema Studio auto-switches to the I2V variant when you add a reference image.
