- Its prompt guidance asks users to name a material, an action and a space, with examples like rain on a tin roof.
Field notes
The page illustrates a timeline with labeled moments from 0 to 10 seconds and separate examples for ambience, foley, impacts and design. Its prompt guidance is unusually concrete: describe the material, action and space, with examples including a ship's hull under pressure and glass breaking on concrete. The homepage also links to model browsing, documentation and an MCP section; the actual generation workflow is presented as a download rather than an in-page demo.
