How to write an AI image prompt

Turn a simple idea into a clear visual brief.

Use these ideas to shape your prompt or editing instructions. In the AI workspace, choose a model and settings, review the Credit estimate, then compare your result before using it.

Start with the subject

A useful prompt describes a picture. Name your main subject first, then add the setting and explain how the scene should be framed.

Describe the composition

Choose a close-up, a wide view or a balanced product arrangement. Mention where you need empty space for separately added text.

Add light and style

Soft window light, a blue-gray palette and a paper-cut style each describe a different part of the image. Change one element at a time to compare its effect.

Review what matters

Exact wording, anatomy and logos need review. Add prices, dates and important text outside the generated artwork as checked elements.

A PROMPT TO ADAPT
