Better Comments, a Bigger Library, & Password-Protected Sharing

Comments got a major upgrade built for real collaboration — invite external reviewers, comment without an account, and stay in the loop with notifications. Your Library grew up too: it now pulls in PDFs, holds anything you upload over the API or MCP, and lets you rename and trace every asset you save. We also locked down public sharing with password protection, added a side-by-side image comparison viewer to the canvas, and made the Tools menu faster to work with. Plus a healthy round of canvas, Safari, and billing fixes.


📦 New

  1. Comments, rebuilt for collaboration

    A major upgrade that turns feedback into a real review workflow.

    MoreLess

    @mention workspace members, invite external reviewers by email, and let them comment without a FLORA account — even on view-only links. Reviewers and owners get dashboard and email notifications that jump straight to the relevant thread, and you can attach files, resolve threads, and copy a direct link to any comment.

  2. Figma in your Library

    Bring Figma files straight into the unified Library alongside everything else.

    MoreLess

    Pull frames and designs from Figma without leaving FLORA, so your source material and your generations live in one place.

  3. PDFs in your Library

    Save PDFs, flip through their pages, and bulk-save from any provider tab.

    MoreLess

    Page thumbnails and page-by-page navigation make multi-page documents easy to browse.

  4. API & MCP uploads land in your Library

    Anything you push over the API or an MCP client now shows up with the rest of your assets, ready to drop on the canvas.

  5. Rename and trace your saved assets

    Give saved assets clear names and see exactly where each one came from.

  6. Password-protected share links

    Put a passphrase on any public share link, with a reveal toggle and stickier controls.

    MoreLess

    Share work with clients and partners while keeping it locked to the people you choose.

  7. Image comparison viewer

    Compare two images side by side directly on the canvas to spot the differences between versions.

  8. Techniques on the canvas

    Drag a connection onto empty canvas and get relevant technique suggestions right where you dropped it.

🧠 Improved

  1. Faster action previews

    Color Grade now runs on the GPU, and Rotate / Flip previews no longer re-encode every frame, so edits feel instant.

  2. A quicker Tools menu

    A new Actions section on nodes plus a Recent Actions submenu put your most-used tools one click away.

  3. See a node's cost from its connected media

    The canvas now surfaces the price for a node's connected media before you run it.

  4. Auto top-up finishes before you generate

    Generations wait for an in-progress top-up instead of failing partway through.

  5. Projects actions on /home

    The header actions from Projects now mirror onto /home for a consistent starting point.

  6. Cleaner Shopify linking

    Polished the Shopify linking flow and export feedback.

  7. Clearer usage limits

    The usage indicator now reflects organization-scoped member limits.

🛠 Fixes

  • Inpaint and outpaint prompts stay editable even when fed by upstream text.
  • Copied action nodes now load and run correctly across workspaces.
  • Draft models accept inputs, and the canvas explains why a connection is refused.
  • Crop works correctly in Safari, and the legacy crop tool is back at the top of the Tools menu.
  • Timeline editor reveals node controls on hover and keeps the mute icon in sync.
  • Document nodes work inside project copies.
  • Searchable menus keep the search field focused as you move through items and submenus.
  • Stuck "pending" generations are now backfilled and resolved.

Organizations at Scale and more

As of this week, Organizations now scale to thousands of members with real admin controls, and chat and sharing got noticeably smoother.

📦 New

  1. Organizations at Scale

    Organizations now support 1,000+ members with faster search and pagination.

    MoreLess

    Admins can set per-member usage limits that apply across every workspace in the org, browse a streamlined workspaces list with per-workspace detail, upload a custom org icon, and rename the organization.

🧠 Improved

  1. FAUNA Chat experience

    Reworked scrolling with smoother auto-scroll, a jump-to-latest control, stable positioning while you read older messages, in-chat search, and better accessibility.

    MoreLess

    Relevant skills now appear as quick-access pills above the chat input.

  2. Easier sharing & support

    Shared project links now work on mobile and can be viewed without signing in, and Contact Support opens directly in the in-app help popup.

  3. Canvas

    Imported files snap into a tidy grid in free space, and the view auto-pans when you drag a connection toward the edge.

  4. Video editor

    A design refresh plus keyboard shortcuts for faster timeline editing.

🛠 Fixes

  • View-only and shared project links no longer show a black or blank canvas.
  • Canvas stays responsive — fixed a freeze where edits stopped saving until refresh, plus recovery from WebGL context loss.
  • Original-resolution files are restored in zip downloads.
  • Video models correctly handle single-image and multi-reference inputs, and original video output URLs are now returned via the API.

🧪 In Beta

  1. Guided Onboarding (Nodecademy)

    Interactive, hands-on onboarding modules, currently limited to an experiment group.

FLORA Weekly

FLORA's new video timeline editor is now open to everyone — trim, arrange, and render finished videos without ever leaving your project. This release also brings a noticeably faster canvas, smarter text generation with live web search, and a smoother billing and account experience.

📦 New

  1. Timeline Editor

    FLORA's in-canvas video timeline editor is now available to everyone.

    MoreLess

    Trim and arrange clips, fine-tune your edits, and render finished videos directly inside a project, with no round-trip to a separate tool. Export length and resolution scale with your plan.

  2. Smarter Text Generation

    Text generation nodes now let you choose a reasoning depth and turn on web search.

    MoreLess

    Dial up reasoning for complex prompts, and enable web search so answers can pull in current, real-world information when it matters.

🧠 Improved

  1. Faster, smoother canvas

    Zooming, panning, and working in dense projects are all noticeably smoother after an under-the-hood rendering upgrade.

    MoreLess

    Big, busy boards stay responsive as they grow.

  2. Billing & account updates

    Hitting a usage limit now shows direct options to upgrade or pay as you go, so you're never stuck mid-project.

    MoreLess

    You can also rename your organization and search across members in settings, and downgrading to the Free plan is now supported directly from Plans & Billing.
