# Node-based AI: 11 canvases for images and video

A node canvas is an interface where each model is a block, and one block's output feeds another block's input. This is how people build text → image → video chains and compare models on the same source. Below are 11 such services with prices from the official pages as of 26.10.2026.

## Canvas in action

Canvas in Mixer AI: nodes and the links between them. A Canvas graph: six character and location references, a prompt and a Seedance 2.5 node build a 30-second MMA trailer. A Canvas graph: six character and location references, a prompt and a Seedance 2.5 node build a 30-second MMA trailer.

## FAQ

What is a node-based AI?

It is not a separate model but an interface: models sit on a board as blocks, and one block's result feeds another block's input. You see the whole chain and can rerun it from any step.

Are there free node canvases?

ComfyUI and NodeTool are free, but cloud models are paid to the providers. FLORA, Wireflow and Beemm Vision give free starter credits.

Which node canvases can I pay for in RUB?

The other services bill in USD or EUR. Mixer AI Canvas is paid in RUB by card or SBP, or with separate USD and crypto methods.

Where is the node price shown before the run?

According to the official pages, in Fuser, Wireflow and Beemm Vision. Mixer AI Canvas also shows the price on the run button.

How is a node canvas different from a regular generator?

A generator has one form and one result. On a canvas, results are linked: a frame from an image model can go straight into a video model, or several models can be compared on one source.
