Frequently asked questions

No for editing or export. A free username/password account is required for durable Turso saving, private uploads, cross-device access, community publishing, and notifications.

Yes. There are no subscriptions, paid tiers, billing entitlements, watermarks, or export quotas.

The public catalog now has nine canonical engines. Each engine owns six modes and shared 2D/3D geometry, effects, and audio controls. Legacy URLs redirect to the closest engine and mode.

Classic is the guided creator. Studio exposes the full layer tree, node graph, timeline, inspector, geometry, assets, and character-rig workspace. Both edit the same composition without serialization loss.

Signed-in projects and revisions are saved in Turso. Uploaded sources are private Vercel Blob objects. Guests can explicitly export and import `.novusvis` project files but do not receive a durable browser library.

Only if you choose cloud audio saving for that project. Otherwise analysis stays local and Novus stores a fingerprint plus analysis metadata so another device can request the matching file.

Use a passkey or a username plus one unused recovery code. Recovery codes are shown once, hashed, and single-use. Without a passkey, recovery code, or authenticated trusted session, the account cannot be self-recovered.

No. Projects and assets remain private until explicit publication. Publishing freezes one revision and uses a separate public preview derivative; later edits do not change the post.

Preview, still capture, and export share the deterministic composition graph, fixed-step runtime, and audio frame contract. Browser codec and color conversion can create small output differences.

All authoring views are available on phones. Capability-aware export limits constrained phones to 1080p, while supported desktops may export up to 4K.
