Draft → enhance iteration so you do not pay full price on every exploratory take.

Caveats

Blog says GA; BFL docs still say preview in places — treat availability as shipping-but-check-docs.
Prefer docs v2v rates ($0.43/$0.54 HD/FHD); model FAQ drifts to $0.41/$0.53.
Result URL TTL is inconsistent in docs; download promptly.
BFL Elo vs Seedance = vendor self-reported.
Editing / omni refs on roadmap, not full GA in generation post.
