Brand DNA, Free Credits & Two New Models

Lock in your brand's voice and style with Brand DNA, earn free credits, get two new top-tier models, and enjoy a much clearer whiteboard — plus mobile and editor polish across the board.

PlatformUX

Brand DNA

Capture your brand's voice, visual style, and personality once — then have it automatically applied across every generation you run in DFIRST. Brand DNA replaces brittle prompt-engineering with a persistent brand profile, so the assets you ship feel on-brand from the first try. Set up during onboarding (and available later in workspace settings) — also accessible to existing customers via a one-time prompt to try it.

PricingUX

Earn Free Credits

Need more credits? You can now earn 2,000 bonus credits (worth $18) by completing a short form, redeemable up to twice a month — no payment required. The new Free Credits entry in the main menu makes it easy to find, and a gentle periodic reminder resurfaces the offer so you don't miss it.

NodesUX

Socket Icons on the Whiteboard

Whiteboard socket connectors now show inline icons for each connection type, so you can see at a glance what plugs into what. Faster wiring, fewer mistakes.

Models

Gemini 3.1 Flash

Google's Gemini 3.1 Flash is now available across text generation tools — a fast, low-latency model well-suited to high-volume drafting and quick iteration.

Models

GPT 5.5

Presentations, New Dashboard & Kling 3.0

EditorPlatform

Presentations Generator

Turn any whiteboard node into a polished slide deck. The new presentation tool builds slides from your context, opens them in an in-app editor for manual tweaks, and exports the result as a fully editable PPTX file.

UXPlatform

New Dashboard

A redesigned dashboard greets you with a cleaner layout, live template previews, and faster access to recent projects and ready-made starting points — so you can get from login to first generation in seconds.

UXNodes

Apps Category in the Docker

A new Apps category in the docker puts ready-to-run generators one click away — landing pages, presentations, emails, and assets — each pre-tuned with its own system prompt so you can jump straight from idea to output.

VideoModels

Seedance 2.0

ByteDance's Seedance 2.0 video model is now available, bringing higher-fidelity motion, sharper detail, and stronger prompt adherence for both text-to-video and image-to-video generations.

Editor Upgrade, Smarter Generation & Performance Overhaul

Editor

Brush Tool in the Image Editor

A full brush tool is now available in the image editor — paint masks, make precise selections, and touch up generations without leaving the canvas.

EditorAudioVideo

Audio Tracks in the Video Editor

The video editor now supports audio tracks — pull sound files from your drive or whiteboard and mix them directly into your videos.

EditorUX

Launch the Editor Without a Whiteboard

You no longer need to open a whiteboard first — launch the image or video editor directly and start working on assets straight away.

Editor

Layer-Preserving Saves

Graphics are now saved with their layer structure intact, so you can come back, tweak one element, and re-export without rebuilding the file from scratch.

EditorUX

Exit Protection with Save Confirmation

Hitting ESC in the editor now prompts to save any pending changes — no more accidentally losing work on a stray keypress.

ModelsUX

Automatic Model Fallback on Errors

When a model fails or is unavailable, DFIRST now suggests a compatible fallback you can switch to with one click — your workflow keeps moving even when a provider hiccups.

ModelsPerformance

Image Streaming for OpenAI & Seedream

OpenAI and Seedream image models now stream results as they generate, so you see progress building up in real time instead of waiting for a final image to appear.

UX

Resizable Docker

The docker panel now has a corner handle you can drag to resize it to fit your screen and your workflow.

UXModels

Favorites Everywhere

Your favorite models now appear front-and-center on the Feed and Whiteboard too — not just in the model selector — so your go-to tools follow you across the app.

VideoModels

Multi-Video Output

Video generations can now produce multiple outputs per run, just like image generations — pick the best take from a batch instead of re-running one at a time.

ResearchUX

Native Scraper Results

Social-media scraper outputs (Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, etc.) now render natively inside nodes instead of inside iframes — faster, cleaner, and easier to browse.

Performance

Faster Whiteboards & AI Agent

Deep React optimizations to the whiteboard and AI Agent — noticeably smoother interaction, lower CPU usage, and fewer frame drops on complex projects.

UXPerformance

Rewritten Undo/Redo

Undo and redo now use a proper command-pattern stack — every action is reversible instantly and reliably, even on large projects with heavy history.

PerformanceUX

Virtualized Project List

The side navigation now virtualizes the whiteboard list, so opening a workspace with hundreds of projects is just as fast as opening one with ten.

PerformanceData

Multipart File Uploads

Large file uploads now use multipart transfers instead of base64 encoding — expect dramatically faster uploads for video files, big assets, and Data Room imports.

UXNodes

Faster Docker Start

Opening the docker now puts your cursor straight in the prompt field, and clicking any node instantly opens its configurator — fewer clicks between idea and generation.

Bug fixes

Bug Fixes

Fixed several bugs across the platform. Most notably: Runway Act-Two generation errors, Public Link crashes, asset styling issues, download options restored for Sonar and Gemini Deep Research, audio recordings in the Data Room, and file-rename extension handling.

Pricing

Parameter-Based Credit Pricing

Credit costs for generations now reflect the actual parameters you choose — resolution, quality, duration, audio on/off, and more — so you only pay for what you use instead of a flat rate per run.

UXModels

Friendlier Model Selector

Models in the selector now show friendly names, clear descriptions, helpful tags, and expected generation times, making it much easier to pick the right tool for the job.

UXNodes

Unified Edit Tools on the Whiteboard

Base image models and their edit counterparts are now a single tool on the whiteboard. The right mode is picked automatically based on whether you supply a reference — no more switching between Gemini Image and Gemini Image Edit.

UX

Workspace Rename: Projects & Folders

Renamed the workspace structure for clarity — what used to be called a Whiteboard is now a Project, and old Projects are now Folders. Easier to organize, easier to explain.

UXModels

Favorites by Default

The model selector now opens directly to your favorites if you have any saved, so your go-to models are one click away.

Platform

New DFIRST Website

The new public dfirst.ai website is live — featuring an interactive docker so visitors can try the product directly from the landing page before signing up.
