The free and open-source status can change, so check the current terms before you build a workflow around it. Online editing depends on your connection, and large files can be slow to upload and process. Advanced effects may be limited compared with desktop editors, so complex projects may need extra tools. Because it runs in the browser, a stable connection matters more than it would with local software. Generated suggestions are for reference only, so verify anything that affects professional judgment or important data. Start with a small sample to confirm the output meets your expectations before processing the full batch. Save a backup of the original file before large batch jobs, and keep an exported copy of key results in case the page or service becomes temporarily unavailable.
