Variations and iteration
Get more than one cut and refine a finished clip, knowing the generator makes one video per run.

One clip per run
Set your expectations straight before you generate. The video tool produces exactly one clip each time you run it. There is no variations slider and no batch count the way the static ad tool has, where a single run returns a spread of options. If you have seen a make-a-batch-of-videos promise somewhere, it does not apply to this surface.
Getting variations
To get a second cut, you re-run the generator with something changed: a different first line in the brief, a different visual style, a different duration, or a different audio mode. Each run is a separate render and a separate charge. So change one thing at a time when you are hunting for the right version, the way a cook adjusts a single ingredient between batches instead of remaking the whole recipe blind. One variable at a time tells you what actually moved the result.
Iterating on a clip you like
Once you have a clip worth keeping, the next move is usually the editor, not another generation. A finished video opens in the video timeline editor, where you can trim, adjust, and apply targeted edits, and the analyze-and-edit loop routes video changes through the right edit path. This is where repurposing and cleanup happen. It also keeps your original safe: edits are tracked as children of the clip they came from, so your first version is never overwritten or lost.
The short version. Vary by re-running with a change, refine by editing. Neither is a one-click batch, and both are honest about costing a render.
