This might be the most comprehensive system we've seen so far for unlocking the power of an AI model beyond its own capabilities. Right now it's only for the top tier Claude subscriptions, but it should be coming to the pro plan soon. The Higgsfield video generation model has been one of the breakout stars of 2025.

Part of their rise to the top has been due to their ability to seemingly ship a new feature every few days. Today they continued that trend by introducing start and end frames. This allows users to define the first and last frames of the video clip for greater control. This is a feature that is already present in many other models, so adding this will keep Higgsfield in a position where they can compete for the top spot.
