VAPOR (Video AI Platform Optimization & Ranking) is a comprehensive theoretical methodology for systematically evaluating AI video generation platforms. It provides structured approaches, data collection tools, and analysis frameworks to help organizations make informed platform selection decisions.

The framework consists of four integrated tools that work together to assess platforms across camera control, style range, physics/motion, and platform features.

The VAPOR Framework has been designed based on evaluation best practices and systematic research principles, but it has not been independently tested or validated in real-world implementations. All expected outcomes and benefits are projections based on methodological design, not proven results.

This means you'll need to test and validate the framework's effectiveness for your specific use case and may need to modify components significantly to make them useful for your organization.

The VAPOR Framework provides systematic structure to replace ad-hoc testing. Instead of random trials, you get:

• Standardized testing procedures and evaluation criteria
• Organized data collection that builds institutional knowledge
• Structured comparison methodologies
• Cost tracking and failure analysis systems
• Transferable processes that survive team changes

Think of it as the difference between randomly trying recipes versus following a systematic cooking methodology.

Basic requirements include:

• Personnel: 40-60 hours of evaluation time (can be spread across team members)
• Budget: $200-500 for platform testing credits
• Technical: Computer with internet access, video playback capability, file storage
• Organizational: Authority to make platform selection decisions

No specialized software or advanced technical skills are required, though research or evaluation experience is helpful.

The framework suggests a 5-week timeline, but this is highly variable based on:

• Number of platforms being evaluated
• Scope of testing (how many prompts and dimensions)
• Team size and availability
• How much customization is needed

Many organizations start with a 1-week pilot test to validate the approach before committing to the full timeline.

Absolutely - modification is expected and encouraged. The framework is designed to be adapted for:

• Different industries and use cases
• Varying budget constraints and timelines
• Specific organizational requirements
• Different team sizes and expertise levels

The framework is designed to be accessible to non-researchers, but some adaptation may be needed:

• Start with simpler evaluation criteria and fewer platforms
• Focus on Tool 1 (documentation) before attempting statistical analysis
• Use the Quick Start Guide to begin with basic implementation
• Consider partnering with someone who has evaluation experience

The framework provides structure, but you'll need to exercise judgment about what works for your organization.

The framework is platform-agnostic and can be used with any video generation platforms. Common choices include major commercial platforms, but the methodology works for any platforms you're considering.

Start with 2-3 platforms maximum for your first implementation. You can always expand the evaluation later once you've validated the methodology.

The VAPOR Framework is designed to work with any video generation platforms. Platform-specific references in the documentation are examples only - you can adapt the methodology for any platforms you need to evaluate.

You may need to adjust some testing parameters or evaluation criteria based on the specific capabilities and limitations of your chosen platforms.

Testing costs vary significantly based on:

• Platform pricing models (per-generation, subscription, or credit-based)
• Number of test generations (framework suggests 3-5 per prompt)
• Video duration and quality settings
• Failure rates requiring regeneration

Budget $200-500 for comprehensive testing, though you can start smaller with pilot tests to validate the approach before full investment.

Since this is a theoretical framework, results will depend entirely on your implementation and validation. Potential outcomes include:

• Systematic data about platform performance in your specific use cases
• Organized comparison methodology for future platform decisions
• Understanding of cost structures and failure patterns
• Institutional knowledge that survives team changes

No. The VAPOR Framework provides methodology for systematic evaluation, but platform selection decisions remain entirely yours. The framework helps you:

• Collect organized data about platform performance
• Structure comparison criteria relevant to your needs
• Document decision-making rationale
• Create repeatable evaluation processes

You'll still need to interpret the data and make platform decisions based on your specific requirements, budget, and organizational context.

This is a possibility with any theoretical framework. If the methodology doesn't provide useful insights for your situation:

• Try modifying evaluation criteria to better match your needs
• Simplify the approach - use fewer tools or dimensions
• Focus on components that do provide value
• Consider whether systematic evaluation is appropriate for your use case

Remember: all sales are final, so ensure you understand the theoretical nature and your responsibility for validation before purchasing.

Limited support is available for verified purchasers who can provide proof of purchase. Support is focused on:

• Clarification of methodology concepts
• Understanding framework components
• Questions about intended use of tools

Support does not include implementation assistance, troubleshooting, platform-specific guidance, or consulting services.

No. Purchase includes access to the current version only. Future updates, if developed, would be separate purchases. The PDF format means you own your version permanently regardless of future changes.

You can use the framework internally within your organization, but you cannot redistribute the PDF file or create derivative commercial products. Internal team use for your own platform evaluation is permitted and expected.

All sales are final - no refunds or returns are available for digital products. This policy exists because:

• You receive the complete product immediately upon purchase
• Digital information cannot be "returned"
• The theoretical nature and adaptation requirements are clearly disclosed

Please carefully review all product information and ensure you understand the theoretical framework nature before purchasing.

Consider purchasing if you:

• Need systematic methodology for platform evaluation
• Have budget and authority for platform decisions
• Can dedicate 40+ hours to implementation and validation
• Are comfortable adapting theoretical frameworks
• Value structured approaches over ad-hoc testing

Consider alternatives if you:

• Want proven, validated methodologies only
• Need guaranteed results or specific recommendations
• Prefer plug-and-play solutions
• Have limited time or budget for testing

The Quick Start Implementation Guide (available free on our website) gives you a sense of the methodology and implementation requirements. This helps you understand the approach and commitment needed before purchasing.

However, the complete framework, tools, and detailed procedures are only available with purchase.
