Question 1

What is dollyboard?

Accepted Answer

dollyboard is an AI-powered canvas for generating and editing images and videos. It combines an infinite drawing board with cutting-edge AI models like Nano Banana 2 and Veo 2 — so you can create, iterate, compose, and export professional visuals in one place.

Question 2

Who is dollyboard for?

Accepted Answer

dollyboard is built for marketers, designers, content creators, e-commerce teams, and creative agencies who need high-quality AI-generated images and videos. Whether you're producing ad creatives, social media content, product mockups, storyboards, or illustrations — the canvas gives you the tools and the speed.

Question 3

How is dollyboard different from Midjourney or DALL-E?

Accepted Answer

Most AI image tools give you a prompt box and nothing else. dollyboard gives you a full canvas — sketch, inpaint, outpaint, mix multiple references, preserve characters across scenes, and iterate visually. Plus, you get both image and video generation, and you only pay for what you use instead of a monthly subscription.

Question 4

Do I need to install anything?

Accepted Answer

No. dollyboard runs entirely in your browser. No downloads, no plugins, no GPU required. Works on desktop, tablet, and Chromebook.

Question 5

Which AI models are available?

Accepted Answer

dollyboard uses Nano Banana 2 for image generation and Veo 2 for video generation. Nano Banana 2 offers real-time grounding, precision text rendering, character consistency, and advanced composition. Veo 2 delivers cinematic text-to-video, AI cinematography, and video inpainting. New models are added as they become available.

Question 6

Can AI generate readable text inside images?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Nano Banana 2 features state-of-the-art text rendering — you can generate sharp, legible text directly in logos, posters, product labels, and mockups. It also supports in-image localization, translating text into multiple languages while preserving the original font style and visual design.

Question 7

How does character consistency work?

Accepted Answer

dollyboard can maintain the facial resemblance and clothing of up to 5 different characters and 14 distinct objects across multiple generations. This is ideal for storyboarding, building visual narratives, or creating consistent brand characters across campaigns.

Question 8

Can I generate videos from text or images?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Veo 2 generates cinematic video clips up to 4K from text prompts. You can also use Image-to-Video mode to animate uploaded photos, illustrations, or concept art. Specify camera movements, lens choices, and cinematic effects for professional-grade output.

Question 9

What is inpainting?

Accepted Answer

Inpainting lets you select a region of your image and regenerate just that area while keeping everything else intact. Want to swap a background, fix details, or add an object? Describe the change and dollyboard updates only the selected area — no need to regenerate from scratch.

Question 10

Can I combine multiple images into one scene?

Accepted Answer

Yes. dollyboard's composition feature lets you reference multiple assets on your canvas — characters, objects, backgrounds — and combine them into a single cohesive scene using AI. Upload a base image and elements to merge, or describe how they should be composed.

Question 11

Is dollyboard free to try?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You get 50 free generations with full access to all AI models, the complete canvas, and every feature. No credit card required. After that, you buy credit packs as needed — no subscription.

Question 12

How does pay-as-you-go pricing work?

Accepted Answer

You purchase credit packs ($10, $50, or $200) and spend credits per generation. A standard 1K image costs 1 credit, a 4K image costs 2 credits, and a video costs 5 credits. Credits never expire — use them today or next year.

Question 13

How does this compare to subscription-based AI tools?

Accepted Answer

With subscriptions, you pay $20–60/month whether you generate 5 images or 500. Unused credits expire at the end of the month. With dollyboard, you only pay for what you generate. Most users save 50–80% compared to subscription tools like Midjourney or Leonardo AI.

Question 14

What payment methods do you accept?

Accepted Answer

We accept all major credit and debit cards through Stripe. All transactions are secure and encrypted.

Question 15

What aspect ratios and resolutions are supported?

Accepted Answer

dollyboard supports a wide range of native aspect ratios including 16:9, 9:16, 2:1, 4:1, 8:1, and more. Resolutions range from a fast 512px for rapid iteration up to production-ready 4K for final outputs.

Question 16

Can I use my own reference images?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Upload reference images, sketches, or photos directly to the canvas. Use them as style references, composition guides, character references, or starting points for image-to-image generation.

Question 17

What export formats are supported?

Accepted Answer

All credit packs include access to every export format: PNG, JPG, SVG, and WebP. No format restrictions on any pack.

Question 18

Can I extend or edit AI-generated videos?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Veo 2 lets you extend previously generated videos to create longer scenes, define specific first and last frames for narrative control, and use video inpainting to add or remove objects while maintaining consistent lighting and motion.

Question 19

Can I use generated images and videos commercially?

Accepted Answer

Yes. All images and videos you generate on dollyboard are yours to use commercially — for ads, products, websites, social media, print, video campaigns, or any other purpose.

Question 20

Is my data secure?

Accepted Answer

Yes. All data is encrypted in transit and at rest. Your images, videos, and prompts are stored securely and never used for model training.

Question 21

Do you use my creations to train AI models?

Accepted Answer

No. Your creations are yours. We never use your images, videos, prompts, or any user data to train or fine-tune AI models.

Question 22

Can I delete my data?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can delete your account and all associated data at any time from your settings. Deletion is permanent and processed within 30 days.

Question 23

Does dollyboard work for product photography?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Many e-commerce brands use dollyboard to generate product shots, swap backgrounds, translate product labels for international markets, and create lifestyle imagery — all from a single reference photo on the canvas.
