The AI Effects feature introduces a new way to enhance captures directly within the Template Editor. Located in the Effects dropdown, this option displays only prompts specifically tagged as effects. These effects appear as simple toggle switches, allowing you to enable one or multiple effects at the same time.
Unlike AI Images or AI Videos - which generate multiple outputs - AI Effects always outputs a single, consistent result for a streamlined workflow.
Getting Started
Before using AI Effects:
A Premium License is required.
You must have sufficient Tokens to take a capture, which is then used to generate the AI-enhanced result.
Even without a license, you can still preview AI Effects using Test Mode of an event (tokens will still be deducted).
Token balance can be viewed and topped up under Billing → Tokens.

Testing Your AI Effects
You can test the setup in one of two ways:
Option 1: Virtual Mode
Requires Virtual Booth to be enabled under Output Settings.
