6 workflows · tool order · real credit costs

“AI image generation” is not a use case. These are.

Each page below is a specific job with a specific shape: the images it needs, the order the tools go in, the prompts that work, the mistakes that cost you a second pass, and what the whole thing costs in credits. No case studies, no logos, no invented percentages.

Four habits every one of these workflows shares

The specifics differ. The technique underneath is the same in all six, and it is worth learning once.

Approve one, reference the rest

Get a single image right, then pass it in referenceImages everywhere else. Consistency comes from examples, not adjectives.

Ask for the shape you need

Six aspect ratios are free at generation time. Cropping afterwards throws away composition you paid for.

Batch what is independent

multicall turns twenty sequential round trips into one. Most image work in a real pipeline is embarrassingly parallel.

Compress before you ship

One credit stands between a generated asset and a production asset. It is the cheapest call on the platform.

Pick the workflow closest to your job

Then run it on the free tier before you decide anything. Thirty credits a month, no card, and the account tools cost nothing to call.
