Create Studio
Generate in Studio
Create Studio is the direct way to make an image or a video: one composer, every model in the catalog, references when you need them, and a canvas where the results collect.

One composer, every model
Create Studio is where you make things directly. The composer sits at the bottom of the screen: a prompt, a strip for references, and a row of controls. Above it is the project canvas, a wall of everything the project has made, with the generations in flight at the top.
The composer has an Image tab and a Video tab. Both use the same model picker as the Node Editor's generate nodes, grouped by provider, so a model behaves the same in both places. The controls you see are the ones the selected model offers and nothing else.
Make your first image
- 1
Open Create
Press Create in the top bar. The home canvas opens with the composer ready. - 2
Pick Image or Video
Choose the tab. The model list and the controls change to match. - 3
Choose a model
Open the model picker. Each model shows what it supports; the cost per generation appears on the Generate button. - 4
Add references if you have them
Drop pictures on the reference strip, or press the add button. The model's own limit decides how many it takes. - 5
Write the prompt and set the output
Describe what you want. Pick the ratio, quality or resolution, and how many variants, where the model offers them. - 6
Press Generate
Squares appear on the canvas at once and fill in as the results land. The first generation also creates the project that holds them.
Expected result
Controls follow the selected model
- Model
- Chooses the image or video model and decides every other control. The prompt length limit, the reference count and the accepted formats are the model's own.
- References
- Pictures the model works from, on the strip above the prompt. Upload them, drop them in, or send any result there with Use as reference.
- Ratio and size
- The output shape from the model's list. Pixel-sized models can take custom dimensions, and some can render a transparent background.
- Quality and resolution
- Shown only for models that expose them. Some choices change the price, and the button updates as you pick.
- Variants
- How many independent results one press makes, up to the model's limit. Each variant is a separate generation charged in full, so the button shows the cost multiplied.
- Duration and sound
- On the Video tab: the clip length from the model's list and whether it generates sound, where the model can.
Video takes its media in one shape at a time
Drafts and Render final
Some video models offer a draft: a cheap, low-resolution preview of a take. Generate the draft first, judge the motion, and when it is right choose Render final on the tile. The same take is rendered again at full resolution, for the price shown on the menu. The vendor keeps the draft for a limited time, so render the finals you want while the option is still offered.
The price is on the button
The Generate button shows the credits one press will take: the model's base price with the options you chose, times the variants. Credits are held when you press and charged when the work lands; a failed generation is not charged. When the cost is more than your balance, the button says so instead of starting.
Projects hold the work
A Studio project is a canvas of generations. The first Generate on the home canvas creates one and moves you into it; after that, the project keeps everything you make there, in flight and finished. Open an earlier project from the project list to carry on where you left off.
