Data Transfer Guide

Fliki doesn't offer direct project export, so you'll need to manually transfer assets. First, download all completed videos from Fliki's dashboard in MP4 format. Export your scripts by copying text from existing projects into documents. Note voice preferences (language, tone, speed) as these won't transfer directly. In Lumen5, upload these assets to your media library. For new projects, paste your Fliki scripts into Lumen5's text converter or manually recreate scenes using templates. Brand elements like logos and colors must be manually recreated in Lumen5's brand kit. Consider this a reconstruction rather than a direct data transfer.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I transfer my data from Fliki to Lumen5?+
You can transfer final videos and scripts manually, but project files don't transfer directly. Export videos as MP4s and copy scripts to documents, then recreate projects in Lumen5 using these assets.
How long does migration take?+
For a solo user with 10-20 videos, expect 2-5 days including learning the new platform. Team migrations take 1-2 weeks due to training and workflow adjustments. Complex projects may require additional time.
Will I lose any features switching to Lumen5?+
You'll lose Fliki's AI voice narration and AI image generation. Lumen5 replaces these with text overlays and stock media suggestions. However, you gain direct social publishing and different AI scene creation.
Can I use both tools during migration?+
Yes, run both platforms in parallel during transition. Create new content in Lumen5 while maintaining existing Fliki projects. This allows testing and comparison before fully committing to the new platform.
Is Lumen5 cheaper than Fliki?+
Pricing is comparable at similar tiers, but value differs. Lumen5's business plan emphasizes team collaboration and publishing, while Fliki focuses on voice features. Compare your specific needs against each platform's paid features.
