Short answers to common questions.

The app needs Brave, Chrome, or Edge on a laptop or desktop. Phones, tablets, Firefox, Safari, and Opera are blocked for the workspace. The tablet remote at /remote is the exception.

Yes. Continue without an account and run a local show: Editor layers, mapping, audio, MIDI, tablet remote, AI Auto VJ. Master output is watermarked. Pro is $20 USD / month — there is no free account tier. Signup is paid.

Pro removes the watermark and unlocks USB-DMX, Mesh Group, Live Camera Feed, AI Layer, Control Cue, clip library, cloud save, Upload, Generate, ratings, and Backup. Generate spends a separate credit balance; the subscription does not include credits.

No. A • after the session name means unsaved channel or mapper edits. Use the red floppy. Session delete has no confirmation. Mute, solo, crossfader, and bus FX are performance state and are never saved.

On a laptop in Brave, Chrome, or Edge: browser menu → Install ocular.ink (or the address-bar icon). It opens fullscreen without browser chrome. Firefox, Safari, and phones cannot install it.

The remote is for a tablet on the same local Wi-Fi as the host (not cellular, not client-isolated guest networks). Header Remote Pairing shows a QR and 6-character code. Open /remote on the tablet. Codes expire in about 5 minutes. One remote at a time.

Yes. Detect screens, drag surface corners, and Launch output windows without an account. USB-DMX and Mesh Group are Pro.

Guests: this browser only — clearing site data deletes the show. Pro: Save to Cloud from the session card. Asset files are referenced, not embedded in the session. Export a Backup from the avatar menu before housekeeping.

The $20 / month Pro seat is independent of AI credits. AI Auto VJ on-device is free. Generate and cloud AI layers spend credits you buy separately.

Guest Master output (and recordings from it) is watermarked. Channel and bus previews stay clean. An active Pro subscription removes it.
