Show limits first; upsell gently when the meter turns amber.
Deterministic progress
Separate upload vs processing phases so users know why they are waiting.
Soft failures
Failed uploads stay in the list with Retry so users never re-select files.
Drop a file to auto-start
PNG, JPG, PDF, MOV up to 500MB on free. We validate on drag so errors show early.
Paste images with ⌘+V. Cloud pickers slot here.

Auto-start is enabled. Switch to manual to queue first.
Usage guidance
- • Permeable paywall: first 3 jobs free, then upsell.
- • Manual start for heavy conversions; auto-start for quick wins.
- • Show ETA and phase (upload vs process) to reduce anxiety.
- • Failed jobs persist with retry.
