The best time to create a workflow on Morphic is right after a session that worked. You already have the process in front of you; the job is to save it so the next run does not start from scratch. Here is how to turn that into a reusable AI video workflow.
What is worth turning into a workflow
Not every session should become a workflow. The ones that should share a shape: you would run this again, the steps stay roughly the same each time, and only the subject changes. A product-shot series, a weekly explainer, a set of ad variations. If a process only happens once, keep it a session. If it repeats, make it a workflow.
How to build it
1.
Start from a session that worked, or describe one
The fastest route is to finish a session you are happy with and tell Copilot, "create a workflow from this." It reads the steps you actually ran and drafts the workflow from them. You can also describe the process from scratch in plain language, no session required.
2.
Decide what stays fixed and what changes
Pin what should be consistent every run: the model on a step, the aspect ratio, the review point. Leave open what changes each time: the subject, the reference image, the script. What you pin becomes the workflow's backbone; what you leave open becomes the questions it asks before it runs.
3.
Design the inputs a teammate will fill
A reusable workflow asks for what it needs through a short form, with sensible defaults and image choices shown as pictures rather than filenames. Keep it to the few things that genuinely change per run, so the person running it can start without being taught the process.
4.
Add a review gate where the cost climbs
Place an approval gate before the expensive step, so the run pauses for a look before it commits to rendering. This is the single most useful thing you can add to a video workflow, because it moves the moment of catching a mistake to before the credits are spent.
5.
Test it, then refine without risk
Run it once on a real subject and see where it needs adjusting. Tell Copilot what to change and every edit is saved as a new version, so you can improve a workflow the team already uses without putting the working one at risk.
Share it so others can run it
Because a Morphic Workflow is a readable process rather than a wired graph, sharing it is a link, not a lesson. Anyone you share it with gets the input form and runs your process, without needing to understand how it was built. That is what separates a reusable workflow from a clever session: someone else can pick it up.

FAQs
A Morphic Workflow is a repeatable multi-step creative process, like a storyboard sequence or a product-shot series, that you set up once and run whenever you need it. The simplest way to build one is to finish a session you liked and ask Copilot to save it as a workflow. It then runs from the Canvas, Copilot, or the dashboard, asks for the inputs it needs, and works through the steps to a finished result.
A node-based workflow is a diagram you assemble and maintain. You place nodes, connect outputs to inputs, and trace the connections when something stops working. A Morphic Workflow is a process you describe once in plain language, and an agent plans the steps, runs the models, and carries context from one step to the next. When you build one, there is no graph to wire, so the work is deciding what to pin and what to leave open, not connecting boxes.
No. Morphic's Canvas is a free-flowing, infinite visual canvas, and Morphic Workflows are created and run through conversation with Copilot. There are no nodes to place and no connections to draw anywhere in the product. Building a workflow means describing the process you want, not assembling a graph.
No. The decisions that shape the result stay yours: which model runs at each step, how the prompt is worded, the look, the timing, and the output settings. What a workflow removes is the wiring around those decisions, so there are no port types to match, no connections to debug, and nothing to repair after an update. You can also place an approval gate mid-run, so the work pauses for your review before it continues.
Yes. A workflow step can name the exact model it runs and the settings that go with it: resolution, aspect ratio, video duration, image quality, voices, and the prompt wording itself. When you build the workflow, pinning a value is how you make it consistent every run, and whatever the workflow specifies is what runs, even if someone's personal settings say otherwise. Steps you leave open use each person's preferred model.
They are not presets. Any workflow you create can be changed by telling Copilot what to adjust: add or remove steps, swap the model on a step, rewrite a prompt, change settings, or redesign the questions it asks before running. Every edit is saved as a new version and earlier versions can be restored, so refining a workflow your team already depends on does not put the working one at risk.
Yes. A workflow is written as plain, readable text rather than as a diagram, so the prompt for each step is right there to change. Edit it in the workflow editor, or tell Copilot what to reword and it updates the step for you. When you are building the workflow, this is where you lock the phrasing that worked, so it runs the same way every time after that.
No. Workflows draw on the same model library as the rest of Morphic, with image, video, and audio models available in one place. A workflow can pin a specific model to a step when a look needs to stay consistent, or leave the choice open so each run uses whichever model you prefer at the time. Swapping the model on a step is a normal edit, not a rebuild.
