MEET THE NEW STUDIO

We're officially out of beta now, with a fresh look, simpler pricing, and we're giving you more free trial credits to play with. If you log into Cascade today, you’ll notice a new look with a refined UX and UI to make it easier for you to get from idea to screen, and we’ve optimised the platform to be faster and smarter at all levels.

Try it out, for size and let us know what you think in Discord. Your feedback is super valueable to us in how we continue to shape Cascade.

THE LATEST MODELS, ALL IN ONE PLACE

We've added the newest image, video, voice and sound models, so you can pick the right tool for every shot without leaving Cascade.

  • Nano Banana 2.1: our new default image model
  • Flux 3: replaces Flux 2 Pro
  • Seedance 2.5: extend your clips, plus a cheaper Draft mode you can finalise to 1080p
  • ElevenLabs v4: the latest voice-over model
  • ElevenLabs Music 2.5: lyrics, song structure and reference tracks, plus edit, extend and loop
  • Sonilo: new sound-effect models

WHAT MAKES CASCADE DIFFERENT

Beyond the new look, a few things haven't changed, because they're what make Cascade, Cascade.

  • Gary is free to use. Your AI agent never touches your credits, so you can plan, brainstorm and direct as much as you like.
  • Free rendering. Hit render on the timeline and we render it on our cloud GPUs, at no credit cost.
  • Free storage. Your projects and assets are stored at no extra cost.
  • Safe as houses. Your work stays yours. Your data is never passed to anyone else.

MORE FREE CREDITS AND SIMPLER PRICING

We've made it easier to get started, and easier to keep going.

  • A bigger free trial. New accounts now start with 3,500 free credits, more than double the 1,500 we offered before.
  • Pay as you go. Top up credits whenever you need them, with no subscription.
  • More from Pro. Pro now includes 10,000 credits a month (up from 4,000), plus 20% extra credits on every top-up.

ALSO NEW

  • Gary can now read the images inside your PDFs, so your scripts, mood boards and decks all feed straight into production.
  • Talk to Gary by voice from any page.
  • A new asset panel in the Timeline.
  • Fresh account, organisation and billing pages.

FASTER AND SMARTER

  • Every generation now follows your project's resolution and aspect ratio.
  • Big artboards and long timelines are much faster.
  • Gary's production runs are cheaper and faster.
  • Cost estimates now match what actually renders, so there are no surprises.
