A post about a work habit
Illustrate the habit, then use the post text to explain the situation and ask a relevant question.
Text-to-visuals: illustrate an idea
Describe what you want the picture to show. Choose Image and a shape, then review the generated visual before using it.
Try a visual brief
Choose one to fill the input, then edit it before generating.
Turn a broad idea into a visual brief
This exercise gives the generator a subject and a comparison to draw. It is a proposed input, not a captured result.
Broad idea
Work smarter
Proposed visual brief
Compare a tangled path and a straight path, labelled ‘Too many priorities’ and ‘One clear next step’. Use simple black lines on white.
What to check in the result
- Do the two paths show the comparison you intended?
- Are the requested labels spelled correctly and attached to the right path?
- Can you read the result at the size you plan to share?
Describe, generate and review
Make the subject and the relationship clear, then check the finished image before sharing it.
- 1
Describe the picture
Name the subject and what it should show: a comparison, a process or a simple visual metaphor. Include any words you want to request.
- 2
Choose Image and a shape
Sign in when prompted. Check Image and the shape after sign-in, then generate the visual. Requests use your account’s available credits.
- 3
Review and export
Check the meaning, generated wording and readability. Image results export as PNG on desktop; on mobile, use Share, which may download the file depending on the browser.
Give the image a job
Keep the explanation with the visual so readers have the context they need.
One concept on a slide
Place the image beside a normal text heading and explain the relationship as you present.
An article illustration
Choose a subject that matches the article’s point. Review it with the headline and surrounding text.
A comparison to discuss
Check that each side represents the intended idea and that the labels do not imply measured data.
Questions about text-to-visuals
Prompt detail, account access and what you can do with the result.
What should I type?
Describe the subject and the relationship you want the picture to show. For example, ask for a tangled path beside a straight path, then specify the labels and a simple visual style. The suggested briefs fill the input so you can edit them.
Will the image keep my words exactly?
Generated wording can differ from your request. Words are part of the image, so check spelling and wording before exporting. If exact wording matters, add it as editable text in your slide or design tool.
Do I need to sign in, and is generation free?
Sign in to generate. Requests use your account’s generation allowance; check your remaining credits and the current plans. Video availability depends on the access shown for your account.
What file can I download?
The Image option exports PNG files. The separate Video option uses MP4 and is available to eligible accounts. On mobile, Share may open the device’s sharing options or download the file, depending on the browser.
Can I change a generated image?
If Edit with AI is available on the result, describe the change you want and review the new image. The generated image is a raster image; its shapes and words are not separate design layers.
How is this different from text-to-meme?
Text-to-visuals creates an illustration from a description. Text-to-meme suggests familiar meme formats and captions for a situation. Choose the tool that matches the picture you want to make.
Describe the picture you need
Name a subject and make the relationship clear. You can edit the input before generating.
