Flova plans and builds a video from a conversation. DomoAI animates a picture you give it. In the Flova lesson, you pick the **Product Promo Video** skill, paste a ten-second bakery script and ask for the storyboard before anything is made. In the DomoAI lesson, you upload a candle photo and describe the motion. One tool starts from words and decides on shots. The other starts from an image and decides how it moves. ## Which one is better when I only have a script? Flova suits a script with no footage, because its job is to turn the script into shots. The lesson has you paste the exact words so the AI cannot rewrite them, then read the **Key Elements**, the three **Shots** and the **Audio Layers** against the script. DomoAI needs a picture to begin with, so with only a script you would first have to create or find an image. ## Which one is better when I only have a product photo? DomoAI is the more direct route. You open **Create**, then **Image to Video** under **Generate Video**, upload the photo, choose **DomoAI 2.5**, **9:16** and **5s**, and write a motion prompt that says what moves and what must stay the same. Flova can also make a reference image and fix it with a plain-words edit, but its strength in the lesson is planning the whole video. ## How do I avoid wasting credits with either tool? Look at the cost before you commit, and test small. In Flova, ask for the storyboard and the credit estimate first, then make one image before a video. In DomoAI, check the credit cost shown before you click **Generate**, keep the clip short and compare two versions. DomoAI also has a Video Upscaler tool, so it makes sense to fix the motion first and polish after. Neither lesson quotes prices, so check flova.ai and domoai.app/pricing for current plans. ## What should I check before posting an AI video? Watch the whole clip. Check that the product, label and colors still match the real item, that nothing odd appeared, and that every word and claim is true for your business. Also check the terms for commercial use on your plan. DomoAI's pricing page lists watermark-free output on its paid plans, and Flova's docs list watermark-free export and a commercial license as paid-membership benefits, so a free-plan export may carry a watermark or lack a commercial license. Check what your own plan includes before you post. ## Who is each one for? ### Flova For a marketer or office manager who has a script and needs the shots planned, with a say in the cost before anything is made.
