The generation studio

Where you pick a model, describe an image, and create it.

Choosing a model

The studio opens on the model gallery. Each card shows the model’s name, a short description, a capability tag (such as “Fast”, “Text”, or “Vector”), and its credit cost per image. Pick the one that fits the job — for a full rundown of strengths and costs, see Models & tools.

The editing tools — Upscale, Remove background, Restore faces, Restore photo, Colorize and Ghiblify — also live here. They take an image instead of a prompt; see Editing tools.

Writing a good prompt

The prompt is your description of the image. A few habits help across every model:

  • Lead with the subject , then add style, setting, lighting, and mood.
  • Be specific. “A minimalist line-art fox logo, single weight, navy on cream” beats “a fox logo”.
  • Name the medium when it matters — photo, watercolour, 3D render, flat vector.

Text in images

If your image needs legible words (a poster, a label, a sign), reach for Ideogram V3 Turbo — it renders typography far more reliably than general models.

Reuse a prompt you like by saving it as a template. Templates can hold {{token}} placeholders you fill in from the prompt box each time.

Aspect ratio & parameters

Set the aspect ratio to match where the image will be used — square for icons, 16:9 for banners, 9:16 for stories. The available ratios depend on the model.

Some models expose extra parameters. Ideogram offers a style type and a magic-prompt toggle; Recraft offers a vector style (logo, icon, line art, and more). Models that support a seedlet you reproduce or vary a result deterministically. Each model’s parameters are listed on the Models page.

Reference images

Several models accept a reference image to guide the result — useful for keeping a character, product, or style consistent. When a model supports it, an upload control appears; some models accept more than one reference.

Models without reference support (for example Flux Schnell) simply don’t show the upload control.

Generating & the session reel

Before you generate, the studio shows the credit cost for the chosen model. Press Generate and the image is queued; finished results stream into the session reel beside the prompt so you can compare a run of ideas at a glance.

Everything you generate is also saved to your gallery. Credits are only charged on success — see Credits & billing.
