# Use Cases

These are the showcase workflows from [nodetool.ai](https://nodetool.ai). Each
one starts from a handful of inputs and ends with a finished result — a trailer,
a batch of video ads, a set of poster concepts — built on a single canvas. Nothing is
locked: swap a model, rewrite an agent's prompt, or drop in a new brief and run
it again. The workflow is the reusable part, not the example output.

Every model runs with your own keys. The bill comes from the provider, not from
us, and you can switch any model for a better one the day it ships.

## Build your own

These are starting points, not limits. The same building blocks — inputs,
prompts, agents, and image/video/audio models on one canvas — cover far more
ground. For smaller, single-purpose examples, see the [Workflow
Gallery]({{ '/workflows/' | relative_url }}) and the
[Cookbook]({{ '/cookbook' | relative_url }}).

- **New to the canvas?** Start with [Getting Started]({{ '/getting-started' | relative_url }}).
- **Want the building blocks?** See [Key Concepts]({{ '/key-concepts' | relative_url }}) and [Nodes]({{ '/nodes/' | relative_url }}).
- **Bringing your own keys?** See [Models &amp; Providers]({{ '/models-and-providers' | relative_url }}).
