Six ways to create smarter, not harder in Brand Studio

By now you've got the basics down. Now let’s talk about some smart decisions you can be making to get the most out of your generations as you start scaling.

Brand Studio has intelligent tools designed to help you create faster, from enhancing your prompt automatically to routing you to the right model. Here's a closer look at what you can do with them.

Let the prompt enhancer fill in the details

Hit the Enhance Prompt button to the left of the prompt bar, and the platform will fill in the specifics: lighting, composition, whatever the model needs to produce something intentional rather than something approximate. Everything it adds is editable before you generate, so you stay in control of the direction.

Use Curated Model Routing to choose the right tools for the job, or toggle it off to pick your favorite model

When you prompt, our Curated Model Routing feature will intelligently select the most capable model option. Our team evaluates each model according to its performance for specific marketing and advertising requirements, such as brand consistency and style alignment, product accuracy, text rendering, and audience relevance (whether the image’s content and style are appropriate for the target audience).

But if you already have a preferred model in mind, you can turn off Curated Model Routing in Advanced Settings and choose yourself. 

Use Outpaint for composition, not just resizing

Some models only output in specific ratios. Seedream, for instance, supports 3:2, 1:1, and 2:3. Outpaint solves that, but it does something more useful too: it creates space. Shift your subject to one side of the frame and Outpaint fills the rest, leaving you an open canvas for copy, logos, or whatever the layout needs. A centered 1:1 product shot becomes a right-aligned 16:9 banner with room for a headline on the left.

Use the Variation tool before you start over

If an image is 60 percent there but not quite right, Variations is worth trying before you regenerate from scratch. It holds the general structure and composition of your image and runs it through additional passes to surface alternatives. It also works well later in the process: once you've added text or made final edits, you can run Variations on the near-finished result to find the version that really lands without rebuilding anything.

Add text and finishing touches by dragging and dropping an asset into the prompt bar

Once your image is composed and sized, drag and drop it into the prompt bar on the Create page and describe what you want added – text placement, copy, additional elements. The platform reads the image as context and applies your instructions into it. It's a fast way to go from a polished visual to a production-ready asset in one more step, without opening another tool.

Ideate with more efficient models, then refine

If you don't know exactly what you want yet, choose a more efficient model. Switch to Stable Diffusion 3.5 in your model settings – it's the fastest and most credit-efficient option in the suite, generates four images at a time, and returns results in under ten seconds. Use it to explore directions, test prompts, and narrow down what you're actually going for. Once you know, switch to a higher-fidelity model and run the prompt you've already refined. You'll get better results faster and spend a fraction of what you would have otherwise.

Once you're ready to go bigger, Producer Mode (available in our Enterprise plan) can turn your prompt into a full step-by-step production plan. Learn more here.
