Press

Open /press →

You walk away with a print-ready ebook PDF.

Press is the in-CF ebook studio. You write your book, structure the chapters, and export a real PDF without ever leaving for Canva, Reedsy, or Vellum.

Honest limits: V0 does writing, structure, and a clean PDF export. Rich typesetting, cover design, EPUB, and one-click store-listing are later passes — the tool never fakes them.

Design — Sheet mode

Open /design?make=sheet →

You walk away with a finished .xlsx or .csv (lead magnet, tracker, pricing table).

Sheet mode is the spreadsheet studio inside Design (Grid folded into Design — one front door, two makers). Build a sheet and export a real .xlsx workbook (styled header, number formats, live formulas) or a plain .csv without bouncing to Google Sheets, Excel, or Airtable — then send it to your store in one click.

Honest limits: The editor shows formulas as text — it doesn’t compute them in-app. On .xlsx export they become REAL formula cells and calculate the moment the file opens in Excel or Google Sheets. Multiple tabs and charts aren’t built — never faked.

1Explore

Open Design → Sheet

Go to /design and answer What are you making? with Sheet — or jump straight to /design?make=sheet.

Push

Open /push →

You walk away with a copy-ready, per-channel social post pack.

Push is the in-CF social studio. Write one master post, draft a tailored variant for each platform you write for, see an honest per-channel character check, connect Telegram/Discord/Bluesky to auto-post on a schedule, and export a finished pack.

Honest limits: Channel-variant drafting covers 11 platforms today — X, LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook, Threads, TikTok, YouTube, Bluesky, Telegram, Discord, and Reddit: one AI call adapts your master post's exact words/claims to each platform's format and length (never adds hashtags, emoji, or hype you didn't write), and you copy each variant out to post it yourself anywhere Push doesn't auto-post. Auto-post (CF posts it for you at a scheduled time, no copy-paste) is LIVE today for Telegram, Discord, and Bluesky only. LinkedIn, Reddit, X, Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and YouTube auto-post are gated on real, named blockers, not "coming soon": LinkedIn and Reddit need CF to finish their OAuth connect flow; X needs CF to provision a paid API tier (X retired free write access); Instagram and Facebook need Meta App Review (CF's submission pending); TikTok needs Content Posting API approval; YouTube needs Google OAuth verification for the YouTube Data API (not yet submitted). Under the hood a schedule CAN carry one channel's exact variant text instead of the master post, but the on-screen control to pick a variant when scheduling isn't built yet — today a schedule always posts the master Post-box text. Analytics (impressions/engagements/clicks) are not available yet — Push never shows performance numbers because nothing collects them yet.

Draft a variant for each channel

In Channel drafts, click each platform chip you’re writing for (11 available: X, LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook, Threads, TikTok, YouTube, Bluesky, Telegram, Discord, Reddit), then click Draft for my channels →. Each channel gets your post resized and reformatted for that platform — edit any card, then Copy it to post there yourself.

This is format adaptation only — nothing gets added that you didn’t write (no new hashtags, emoji, or hook). One draft call counts as one AI run no matter how many channels are picked.

push — 05-variants
6Design

Pick your channels for the pack

In Channels, click each platform chip you’re writing for. Each shows a live character count (e.g. 240/280); over-limit chips warn you to trim.

These chips are the character check + pack tagging, not auto-posting — connect a real channel to post automatically in the Auto-post section below.

push — 06-channels
7Design

Plan time & media

In Plan, set a Target time and add Media references (a URL or a note). Click Save post, then Mark ready when it’s done.

This target time is just your own planning note — it doesn’t schedule anything by itself. To have CF actually post on a schedule, use the Auto-post panel (next step).

push — 07-plan
8Create

Connect a channel & schedule (auto-post)

In Auto-post, under Connect a channel, pick Telegram, Discord, or Bluesky, then fill in the credential (Telegram: add the CF bot as an admin, then paste the channel @username or ID; Discord: paste a webhook URL from Server Settings → Integrations → Webhooks; Bluesky: enter your handle, e.g. name.bsky.social, and an App Password generated in Bluesky Settings → App Passwords — never your main password), then click Connect channel. Click Send test post to confirm it works. Then under Schedule this post, pick the connected channel and a date/time, and click Schedule.

Telegram, Discord, and Bluesky post for real — CF publishes at the scheduled time and the status flips to "Posted" (or an honest "Failed — reason" if it didn’t go through). LinkedIn and Reddit need CF to finish their OAuth connect flow; X needs CF to provision a paid API tier; Instagram and Facebook need Meta App Review (pending); TikTok needs Content Posting API approval; YouTube needs Google OAuth verification — none of those show a connect button yet, not because anything is broken.

Cut

Open /cut →

You walk away with a finished MP4 (rendered in your browser).

Cut is the in-CF video studio. Capture clips, order and trim them, and render a real MP4 in your browser — Stitch mode combines your clips; Faceless mode builds a complete video from a topic: AI writes the script, CF generates a NATIVE AI VOICEOVER for every section (no outside tool needed), finds stock footage, adds music, and renders the finished MP4.

Honest limits: Rendering is real (FFmpeg in your browser). Faceless voiceover is generated natively by CF (server-side AI voice) — a creator never needs ElevenLabs or any outside voiceover tool. The full Faceless video build (voiceover + stock footage) is included with paid plans; free accounts can draft up to 3 AI scripts a day to try it. Raw recorded/imported clips live in this session only — download them to keep them; they are never uploaded. Finished renders auto-save to the project for paid members (last 10 kept); free renders are download-to-keep. Cut does not host or publish.

Frame

Open /sitebuilder →

You walk away with a CF-hosted website at /s/your-name.

Frame is the CF website builder. Answer a branching brief, generate a site shaped to your answers, edit every part, read a real SEO report, and publish to a CF-hosted page.

Honest limits: V0 builds websites (apps are later). The SEO score is computed from your live content, not invented; no traffic numbers are shown until real visitors arrive. Custom domains and live stats are coming and aren’t faked. Members build free; non-members see proposed pricing — nobody is charged until Truth Payments.

Sell

Open /sell →

You walk away with a live storefront with products listed and payouts connected.

The Sell dashboard is where every product you make goes to market. Set up your store, connect payouts, and list products. This is the final step for all five studios.

Honest limits: You can fully prepare your storefront and products now. Checkout and payouts go live with Truth Payments — until then the earnings panel shows an honest zero, never a fake sale.
