FAQ

Does Auto color correction use credits? It costs 1 credit. What does Auto color correction change? It balances white balance, brightness, and contrast so skin tones look natural and the scene looks evenly lit. It doesn’t apply a stylized filter. Why didn’t my video improve much? Auto color correction works best on clear footage with fixable lighting. Results may be limited on blurry video or footage with extreme contrast, like a bright window behind a dark subject. Can I undo it? Yes. Turn off Auto color correction in AI enhance or above the preview at any time to restore your original colors.
