A New Home and More Ways to Create on FLORA

Your signed-in Home is now the Explore community feed — the best work on FLORA, front and center the moment you land. On top of that - we added one-click video extension, three new models, and a set of canvas refinements to keep you moving.

New

  1. Explore is your Home

    The Explore community feed now greets you the instant you sign in, replacing the old technique gallery.

    MoreLess

    Discover, get inspired, and remix the best work on FLORA without a detour to a separate page.

  2. Extend video

    Continue any clip in a single click.

    MoreLess

    Every video node now has an Extend action that spins up a downstream generation picking up right where your video left off — no manual wiring, just click and run.

  3. Static text nodes

    Mark any text node as input-only so it feeds downstream work without ever regenerating.

    MoreLess

    Perfect for prompts, labels, and reference copy you've carefully written and don't want a run-all to overwrite.

  4. SAM 3 segmentation

    Meta's SAM 3 is now available on the canvas and the API.

    MoreLess

    Give it an image and a short text label and get back a clean transparent cutout or a black-and-white mask — great for isolating subjects and building composites.

  5. Recraft V4 Styles, Gemini Flash 3.8, and Topaz Hyperion

    New models, now live on FLORA

  6. Reference-to-video on MiniMax H3 Max

    Steer a clip with up to 12 mixed references: images, video, and audio.

    MoreLess

    Address each one right from your prompt (“Image 1”, “Video 1”, “Audio 1”) for far more control over how your generated video looks and moves.

New Tools

  • A new set of Imagine tools for real-time creativity: Pose to create poses that can be fed in as references for real-time image generation, Director to direct real-time scenes that render instantly, and Realtime to use your webcam to create scenes.
  1. Generate

    is FLORA's simple surface to use every image and video model on the platform.

    MoreLess

    Find models to use, feed in references, and generate, upscale, and repurpose all in one simple feed. Available on desktop and mobile.

  2. Create

    is FLORA's new agent.

    MoreLess

    Use skills (or create a custom skill) for your creative workflows.

Improved

  1. Open in Layer / Timeline Editor from the right-click menu

    Right-click an image node for Open in Layer Editor, or a video node for Open in Timeline Editor, and the editor spawns downstream and focuses. No more digging through the Tools menu.

  2. Studios in the sidebar

    The sidebar now has a single Studios entry that opens the full studios grid, and studio cards open the studio directly. One consistent way in.

  3. Smarter batch defaults

    Batch table generation now defaults to Nano Banana Pro for stronger out-of-the-box results.

Fixes

  • Canvas image nodes no longer crash on unusual aspect-ratio values — your canvas stays stable no matter how a node's size is set.
  • Group runs no longer regenerate nodes that already have results, so re-running a group leaves finished work untouched.
  • gpt-image-2 edits now honor 2K and 4K output resolutions for full-quality results.
  • Shared project links now reliably clone the live project from the sidebar.

3D Nodes Land on the Canvas

3D comes to the canvas as a first-class node this week — drop in a GLB or generate a model from text, an image, or multiple views, then share, refine, and organize it like any other asset. There's also a new video model, a smarter default for FAUNA, and a cleaner way to hand any project off to your coding agent.

New

  1. 3D Nodes

    Generate and import 3D directly on the canvas.

    MoreLess

    Drop .glb files (up to 10MB) onto the canvas or generate 3D from text, an image, or multiple views of the same object across seven models. Configure topology, quality, PBR, face count, and seeds from the parameters panel, browse saved models with poster previews and a new 3D filter in your library, and share any model on its own page so anyone can orbit and download it.

  2. MiniMax H3

    A new video model for text-, image-, and reference-to-video.

    MoreLess

    Generate from a prompt, animate a still, set first and last frames, or steer motion with combinable image, video, and audio references — all from a single model on the canvas.

  3. Open in Agent

    Hand any project to your coding agent in one click.

    MoreLess

    A redesigned launcher deep-links straight into Claude Code, ChatGPT / Codex, Cursor, or any MCP client with a prefilled prompt, so you can drive your canvas from the tools you already use.

Improved

  1. FAUNA now runs on Gemini 3.7 Flash by default

    A smarter, faster, and more cost-efficient default across Create and Canvas, with Gemini 3.6 Flash also available to select.

  2. Image metadata

    View an asset's EXIF / IPTC / XMP right from the toolbar and see human-readable metadata in your library.

    MoreLess

    Downloads and exports now preserve source metadata by default, so provenance travels with your work.

Fixes

  1. Nano Banana Pro nodes no longer come back identical

    Each run samples a fresh seed unless you've pinned one, so your generation history stays varied.

  2. Cropping is undoable again

    Cmd / Ctrl+Z reverts a just-committed crop instead of consuming unrelated canvas history.

  3. A canvas that loses its GL context now heals itself

    instead of going black until a full reload.

  4. Fashion Studio signups on mobile

    land back in the studio after sign-up instead of a generic generate page.

  5. Clearer connection messaging

    Flora only blames your network when you're actually offline, and says "Can't reach Flora.

    MoreLess

    Reconnecting…" when the issue is on our side.

Fashion Studio Opens to Everyone

This week Fashion Studio goes public — anyone can now try it without an account, complete with a guided first-run tour. We also refreshed the Community page, added a new model and a 1080p option, introduced flexible billing cadences, and shipped a batch of Studio quality-of-life upgrades.

New

  1. Fashion Studio, no account required

    Signed-out visitors land in the real workspace, switch tools, fill inputs from ready-made examples, and run preset generations.

    MoreLess

    A guided tour covers sketch to render, recolor and fabric swap, try-on, and a five-variant photoshoot, with sign-up prompts only when you're ready to save your own work.

  2. Community, rebuilt

    The Community page is reorganized into three clear sections: Virtual Events, Nodecademy, and Workflow Highlights, so it's easier to find sessions, recordings, and featured workflows.

  3. Gemini Flash 3.7

    Google's newest Flash text model joins the canvas alongside 3.6 Flash and 3.5 Flash-Lite, giving you a faster, more capable option for text-driven work.

  4. Seedance 2.5 in 1080p

    Higher-resolution video is now available across every Seedance 2.5 mode (text-to-video, image-to-video, and reference), so you can render sharper clips without switching models.

  5. Monthly, Quarterly, and Yearly billing

    Every pricing table now offers all three cadences, making it easier to pick the plan and commitment that fit.

Improved

  1. Zoom and pan video generations

    Video now behaves like images in the Studio Editor, with the full zoom cluster and drag, wheel, and keyboard panning while a clip is open.

  2. Import to Studio from your library

    Unified Library cards now offer Import to Studio, bringing Assets, History, Unsplash, Drive, and Dropbox items straight into Fashion Studio.

  3. Copy your public Community link

    Published projects can share their view-only Community URL (the one with the Clone button) directly from the Publish tab, instead of handing out a workspace invite.

Fixes

  • Large image batches now trim to the 8-image limit instead of failing the entire save.
  • The library sheet stays inside the viewport, and Cmd/Ctrl+F no longer pops open a hovered node's fullscreen preview.
  • Share invites stay usable outside a project
