01
THE CONTEXT

Why it matters

The decision is whether your existing plan can finish a useful workflow. A new dashboard does not make its query correct, and animation created with code is a different tool from footage generation.

02
WHY IT MATTERS

Verified access

Dashboards counts against plan usage. Its help guide describes inspecting each chart query and checking the refresh date. Motion also uses plan limits: Team starts enabled, while Enterprise starts disabled. Motion creates animations with code and exports MP4; it is not a realistic video-generation model.

03
WHAT HAPPENS NEXT

Administrator and migration dates

The launch says Enterprise Docs, Slides and Design automatically enable on 15 October unless administrators change settings; the two betas remain separate. Standalone Design closes on 14 December 2026. Review the official migration instructions before that date, particularly comments, chats and public links.

04
THE CONTEXT

HubAI buyer verdict

Use the existing plan first. For Dashboards, give a reviewer a known-answer dataset and inspect the query, refresh time and sharing scope before circulating the result. For Motion, test one short animation and export it before purchasing seats. These are feature updates, not a new API model or an independent performance result.
