Each video is under a minute and replays a real session in the NodeTool editor. The same videos play in the app under the logo menu → Tutorials.
Groups: make it by asking, steer the assistant, repeat it with a workflow. Start with the Quick Start. Terms are in the Glossary.
Make it by asking
Edit a sketch by asking
The Sketch Assistant calls the layer tools: it adds a layer, sets the blend mode, and sets the opacity.
Try it: open a sketch and ask for a soft vignette. The new layer appears in the layer panel, and you can change it by hand afterwards.

Write and voice a script
The Script Assistant casts the speakers, writes their lines, then records a take for each line.
Try it: ask for a short two-speaker script, then have the assistant voice it. Each line gets a take you can replace or record again.

Board a shot list
Describe the video. The Storyboard Assistant writes the shots, including camera direction, before it generates any image. Approve the board, and the stills render shot by shot.
Try it: describe a short piece, read the shot list, and change a shot while it is still free to change.

Build a mini app
Describe an app in one sentence: an input, a button, and an answer. The App Assistant adds the operation, declares a setting that persists between sessions, and places each widget against something the app declares.
Try it: open a mini app from the Examples page, fill in its input, and run it.

Write a JS script
Say what goes in and what should come out. The assistant declares the ports first, writes the body, and saves a test case that runs in the sandbox.
The script runs sandboxed with no file system access, and the saved case catches the next edit that breaks it.

Ask the chat agent
Ask Chat about a recent discovery. The agent runs a web search where you can see it, then streams its answer.
Try it: start a new chat and ask about something that happened this week. The tool call appears before the answer.
Read more: Chat, Chat & Agents.
Cut a scene together
The video editor trims the opening clip, moves the next shot to meet its edge, and adds a caption on its own track. Then it plays the finished cut.
Try it: place two clips on a timeline, trim the cut between them, add a caption, and preview the result.

Steer the assistant
Correct it without starting over
A warm wash comes back too strong. Ask for less in the next message, and the assistant edits the layer that is already there. The layer count stays the same and nothing is generated again.
The chat shows which tool call the correction ran, and the layer panel lets you finish the edit yourself.

It asks before it spends
A brief that leaves out the format gets a question back instead of a guess. The board stays empty and nothing renders until you answer. Your answer sets the format and the number of shots.
Read more: Storyboard Editor, Creative Agent.
A test catches it
Name the case you do not trust. The assistant saves it as a test and runs it. The test fails and shows why. The assistant repairs the body and runs the same cases again, and they pass.
The case stays saved, so the next edit that breaks it fails there first.

Repeat it with a workflow
A workflow saves the steps behind a result so you can rerun them with new inputs. To build one yourself, follow Your First Workflow.
Build your first workflow
A prompt goes into an LLM node that expands it, and the expanded prompt goes into an image model. Watch the nodes run and the image appear on the canvas.
Read more: Your First Workflow, Workflow Editor.
Connect and run
Follow a text value through three connected nodes: a text input, a Code node that uppercases it, and a Preview that shows HELLO NODETOOL.
Read more: Workflow Editor, Key Concepts.
Generate a list
One topic goes into a List Generator node, and the items stream out one by one. The list can then feed every node after it, which is how batch generation starts.
Read more: Workflow Editor, Cookbook.
Ask the AI
Type a question, send it to an Agent node, and watch the answer stream in before it lands in a Preview.
Read more: Workflow Editor, Models & Providers.
Combine two inputs
Two text inputs flow into one Prompt node, which fills a template and produces one sentence.
The Prompt node fills {{ placeholders }} from its connected inputs.
Read more: Workflow Editor, Key Concepts.
Summarize a document
A long passage goes into a Summarizer node, which writes the key points as it goes.

Describe an image
A picture goes into an Image Input, which connects to an Agent node. The model looks at the picture and describes it in words you can use in the next node.
