Create a video

Choose between YOLO and PRO

YOLO keeps moving through to a video. PRO pauses after planning so you can approve the storyboard before visual generation begins.

YOLO

Use YOLO when speed and a complete first draft matter more than approving every planning step. ngram proceeds from the brief through script, scenes, visuals, narration, and video without waiting for storyboard approval.

  • Good for first drafts, social variants, and low-risk internal videos.
  • You can still revise the finished result in chat or the editor.
  • It does not guarantee a fixed completion time; length, models, and sources still affect generation.

PRO

Use PRO when the script and storyboard need review before visual generation. The run pauses at the approval point so you can correct claims, narration, scene structure, and the production plan before more expensive generation begins.

  • Good for customer-facing, regulated, executive, and brand-sensitive work.
  • Approve only after checking the source-backed facts and CTA.
  • PRO is an approval mode, not a subscription-plan name.

How to choose

Choose YOLO for a fast complete draft you expect to refine. Choose PRO when catching a structural or factual mistake before visual generation will save more time and credits than the approval step costs.

Change the mode

  1. Open Home.
  2. Select the Mode control under the prompt.
  3. Choose YOLO or PRO before submitting the request.
  4. Confirm the mode shown in the composer, then start the run.

Before you finish

Before spending credits on another generation, check the script or storyboard, identify the smallest part that needs improvement, and change only the setting responsible for that result.
