FAQ

Got questions?

Install our After Effects plugin, select your composition, and click "Render in the Cloud". Your project is uploaded to a dedicated cloud instance that handles the rendering while your machine stays free.

We support most popular AE plugins including Trapcode Suite, Element 3D, Optical Flares, and Duik. Our system auto-detects the plugins your project needs and installs them on the cloud instance before rendering.

Yes. Files are encrypted in transit (TLS) and at rest (AES-256). Your project files are automatically deleted after your plan's retention period. We never access, share, or analyze your content.

Absolutely. The free plan includes 3 renders per month with no credit card required. It's the full experience — same cloud instances, same plugin support, same quality.

Render time depends on your composition's complexity, but our cloud instances often render faster than local machines thanks to dedicated CPU cores. You can track progress in real-time frame by frame.
