Copilot

Copilot on Morphic lets you make things by describing them. You say what you want in plain language, and Copilot picks the model, runs the generation, and returns the result in the conversation. Give it a one-line idea and let it choose the details, or set the model, resolution, and aspect ratio yourself and have it follow you exactly.

Here's a quick tutorial on how to use Copilot on Morphic:

Open CopilotCopy Anchor Link

Copilot sits alongside Canvas and Compose, so you can move between chatting and editing in the same file.

1. Open a file in Morphic
2. Click 'Copilot' in the top bar, between 'Canvas' and 'Compose'
3. Type what you want in the prompt bar, then press 'Enter'

To keep Canvas or Compose on screen, click 'Chat' at the top right instead. Copilot opens in a side panel; 'Open in Copilot' at the top of the panel switches to the full view.

Copilot and chatsCopy Anchor Link

Studio uses a few names for the same assistant:

• Copilot: the AI assistant, and the 'Copilot' tab at the top of a file.
• 'Chat' button: opens Copilot in a side panel beside Canvas or Compose. It is the same Copilot, with the same models, credits and history.
• A chat: one conversation with Copilot. A file's chats are in the 'Chats' tab of its sidebar, and every chat is on the Chats page. 'Create new' > 'Chat' on Home starts one.

Everything on these pages about Copilot applies to the 'Chat' panel too.

A new chat offers starting suggestions like 'Cinematic scene from 3 frames'. Click one to see how a request is put together.

What you can ask Copilot to doCopy Anchor Link

• Generate media: images, video, audio, music, speech, and dialogue, from a text prompt or from references you attach.
• Edit and refine: ask for changes to something it already made, like a different angle, a new style, or a longer version, and it carries the context forward.
• Put clips together: ask Copilot to join clips or stills into a video and it renders one in the chat, with titles and logos if you ask. Ask for a timeline instead and it builds one you can edit in Compose.
• Adjust an image without a model: crop, split into a grid, resize, rotate, flip, pad to a new aspect ratio, or key a flat background, like a green screen, out to a transparent PNG.
• Ask about a video: Copilot watches clips from the chat and answers questions about them.
• Work with references: attach images, video, or documents and Copilot uses them to guide the output.
• Run and build workflows: run a saved workflow, or describe a process you use often and have Copilot build it into one.
• Write documents: ask for a script, treatment, shot list, or CSV and Copilot saves it as a document in your project, not only as chat text.
• Build a page from the chat's work: ask for a review sheet, takes side by side, a storyboard or a clip list and Copilot opens it as an artifact beside the chat.
• Read comments: ask what the comments on a file say, and Copilot reads the threads, including who wrote each one and whether it is resolved.
• Share a file: ask for a link to something in the chat and Copilot returns a public URL you can paste anywhere.
• Organize assets: favorite and tag assets from the chat, then ask for them back later by searching this chat, the whole project, or your organization. To see only what one chat made, ask 'show me every video from this chat', since the 'Assets' tab filters by file.
• Check credits: ask what a generation will cost, or what your balance is, before you commit to it.

If you are unsure how to phrase something, describe the outcome you want. Copilot asks a follow-up when it needs more.

The prompt barCopy Anchor Link

• Attach media: the paperclip adds images, video, or documents, including PDF, Word and Excel files, as references. Attach several to combine elements from more than one source.
• Model preferences: set which model to use for 'Images', 'Videos', and 'Frames to Video'. Leave one on 'Auto' to let Copilot choose.
• Preferences: set the 'Aspect ratio', 'Resolution', and number of 'Variations'.
• Mode and model: choose whether Copilot generates immediately, asks you to approve first, or only plans, and which model runs the chat. The button shows both, mode first, for example 'Auto · Sonnet 4.6'. See Chat modes and Choose a model.
• Voice input: the microphone lets you speak your prompt instead of typing it.

Above the prompt bar, 'Workflows' opens the workflow gallery and 'Tools' opens the tools you can run on an asset. For the Canvas prompt bar, see Prompt bar.

ContextCopy Anchor Link

Context is what Copilot remembers in one chat: its messages, attached files, and the documents Copilot wrote there. Copilot reads it before each reply, which is why "make it warmer" works without repeating the request, and why replies cost more as a chat grows.

• Each chat has its own context. A new chat starts with none.
• 'Continue in new chat' (forking) starts a new chat with the context up to a message you pick, and from there the two grow separately. See How the context branches.
• Copilot keeps the rules you set and the chat's progress in a private memory file, so they carry through a long chat and into 'Continue in new chat'. Ask to see your memory and Copilot attaches the file.
• In a very long chat, Copilot summarizes the older messages to make room. It keeps the recent messages and your latest request word for word, and can still search the full chat for a detail.

CreditsCopy Anchor Link

Copilot's replies and its generations are charged separately:

• Generations: every image, video or audio file is charged at its model's rate.
• Copilot replies: Copilot reads your chat, plans the request, picks models, writes the prompts and answers you. Each reply is charged for that work, based on how much text the model reads and writes (measured in tokens) and which model the chat runs on.

What changes a reply's cost:

• Chat length. Copilot reads the chat before each reply, so replies cost more as a chat grows
• Steps. A reply that plans, generates and checks a result reads the chat at each step
• The model. Each model has its own rate

Start a new chat for new work to keep replies lighter. Typical figures for each model are under Copilot reply costs.

Copilot can make mistakes, including about pricing, credits, billing and your account. Check anything important in Studio. Copilot can't give refunds or credits, and credits used on a reply are not refunded because the reply was wrong or unhelpful. See Pricing FAQs.

See what a chat usedCopy Anchor Link

• Each reply shows its cost above it, as 'credits consumed'
• For a whole chat, right-click it in the 'Chats' sidebar of its file and click 'Total credits'. Replies are under 'LLM', and generations are listed separately
• For your full history, open Credit usage and click 'Usage history', or set 'Group by' to Chats to compare chats

Check credit cost via CopilotCopy Anchor Link

Ask in plain language and Copilot looks the rates up. The answer is a reply like any other, so it is charged the same way.

Here's a quick tutorial on how to check model credit costs in Copilot on Morphic:

• Across models: 'tell me the credit cost of each image model' returns a table grouped by task type, with per-resolution figures where a model charges by resolution
• For one job: 'what would a 10 second video cost with this model?'
• Your balance: 'how many credits do I have left?'

For the full rates, see Plans & Credits.

Good to knowCopy Anchor Link

Each result appears in the conversation with the credits it used.

• Hover an output for its quick actions: generate a video from it, favorite it with the heart, or download it. The '...' menu has the rest, including 'Add to Assets', 'Add to Canvas', 'Attach as reference', and 'Copy link'.
• 'Attach as reference' feeds an output straight into your next prompt, which is the quickest way to build on something Copilot just made.
• Under a result, Copilot suggests follow-ups like 'Animate one into video'. Click one to run it.
• Every chat is listed on the Chats page, however many files they are spread across.

That's how Copilot works on Morphic. Start with a plain-language prompt, and use the settings and modes as you need more control.
