Canvas

Canvas is a powerful node-graph editor that brings every Beeble AI model into a single, unified workspace. Build custom processing pipelines by wiring together tools like SwitchX, Image Generator, and Video Matte. Simply import your raw footage, map out your node network, and generate production-ready results. With the flexibility to branch off creative variations at any step, Canvas gives you complete control from raw input to final render.

Node Catalog

Canvas ships with four node groups.

Input

Node	Output	Notes
Text	text	Plain text prompt.
Image	image	PNG, JPEG, or WebP.
Video	video	MP4 or MOV.
Text Iterator	text	Split text into multiple items by delimiter — type the text on the node or connect an upstream text node. Drives multi-prompt batches.
Image Iterator	image	Upload multiple images at once and batch-process the full set through connected nodes — no need to upload one-by-one.
Video Iterator	video	Upload multiple videos at once and batch-process the full set through connected nodes — no need to upload one-by-one.

AI Tools

Node	Inputs	Output	Notes
SwitchX	source video reference image alpha video prompt	video	Same model as the standalone SwitchX product. Source and alpha handles are video-only. If you need Fill Mode, leave the alpha input disconnected. Set a random seed for reproducibility.
LLM	prompt media	text	Generate text from a prompt using an LLM. Supports up to 4 media inputs (image or video). Use `@` to reference connected media in your prompt.
Image Generator	prompt images	image	Supports 1 to 4 reference images.
Video Generator	prompt start / end frame reference media	video	Generate a short clip via external models (e.g., Seedance 2.5). Pick a model in the footer: Text-to-Video — prompt only Image-to-Video — needs a Start Frame (End Frame optional) Reference-to-Video — repeatable reference slots; the per-model cap follows the selected model (e.g. Seedance 2.5 accepts up to 30 images / 10 videos, Seedance 2.0 up to 9 images / 3 videos)
Effect Generator	source mask prompt	image / video	Describe an effect in a sentence — God Rays, Glitch, Old Film, Halftone — and Generate writes a GPU shader with its own controls. Optional mask (white = effect, black = source), up to 4 reference images; accepted effects are saved to your library. Full guide: Effect Generator.
Video Matte	video	alpha RGBA	Two outputs: Alpha (grayscale matte) and RGBA (source merged with alpha). Two modes: Auto (one-click) or Select (interactive SAM editor). Choose MatAnyone 2 (default) or MatAnyone for general footage, and CorridorKey 2.0 or CorridorKey for green-screen keys. Export the RGBA composite as MOV or a PNG sequence, and the alpha as a PNG sequence.
VFX Pass Generator	image / video	image / video × 6	Extracts PBR material maps (BaseColor, Normal, Depth, Roughness, Specular, Metallic) from an image or video using SwitchLight 3.0. Export passes individually or all at once with Export All, including PNG sequences.
Depth Generator	image / video	image / video	Extracts a depth map from an image or video using Video Depth Anything. Export as a 16-bit EXR for higher-fidelity depth workflows.
Video Upscaler	video	video	Upscale a video 1×–4× (up to 4K) with Topaz Video AI. Pick a Mode in the footer (every standard Topaz model fal offers: Proteus, Artemis, Gaia and Nyx families); codec, frame interpolation and the Topaz tuning sliders live under Advanced.
Image Upscaler	image	image	Upscale an image 1×–4× (up to 8K) with Topaz Gigapixel AI. Pick a Mode in the footer (Standard V2, Low Resolution V2, CGI, High Fidelity V2, Text Refine, generative Recovery / Redefine / Wonder, and more).
Image Describer	prompt images	text	Generate a detailed text description of connected image(s) using an LLM. Connect up to 4 images. Comes with a built-in, editable prompt — hit Reset to restore the default.
Video Describer	prompt videos	text	Generate a detailed text description of connected video(s) using an LLM. Connect up to 4 videos, each up to 5 minutes. Comes with a built-in, editable prompt — hit Reset to restore the default.
Camera Angle (Qwen)	image	image	Re-render a still from a different camera angle.

Edit

Node	Inputs	Output	Notes
Extract Frame	video	image	Extract a single frame from a video
Trim	video	video	Trim a video to a specific frame range
Crop	image / video	image / video	Crop an image or video. Interactive overlay or numeric inputs.
Resize	image / video	image / video	Resize an image or video to target dimensions
Curves	image / video	image / video	Adjust the tonal range with interactive RGB and per-channel (R/G/B) curves. Drag points to shape the curve; click empty space to add a point; double-click or drag a point off the graph to remove it.
Invert	image / video	image / video	Invert RGB colors of an image or video.
Rotate / Flip	image / video	image / video	Rotate an image or video in 90° increments, or flip it horizontally or vertically.
Erode / Dilate	image / video mask	image / video	Dilate (grow) or erode (shrink) bright regions. Typically chained after Video Matte for matte cleanup. Strength ranges from −200 to +200. Optional mask input.
Channels	image / video	image / video	Isolate a single RGBA channel (R, G, B, or Alpha) and view it as grayscale.
Blur	image / video mask	image / video	Apply a Box or Gaussian blur (Size 1–100). Optional mask input to confine the blur to specific regions.
Merge	background foreground mask	image / video	Composite foreground over background with 16 blend modes (Normal, Multiply, Screen, etc.). Inputs accept image or video independently. Optional grayscale mask.
Merge Alpha	RGB alpha matte	image / video	Combine an RGB source and a grayscale alpha matte into a single RGBA stream. Both inputs accept image or video.
Compositor	layers	video	Composite multiple layers into a single video with per-layer blend modes, opacity, and timing.
Paint	image	result mask	Freehand drawing with pen and eraser. Connect an image to paint over it, or set dimensions for a blank canvas. Outputs the painted result (RGBA) and a grayscale mask.
Text Concatenator	text × 2	text	Concatenate two prompts — use one as a system prompt and the other as a user prompt.

Handles & Data Types

Each node’s handle color represents its data type. Required inputs are marked with an asterisk on the label (e.g., Source *).

Type colors
