Edit with Normal Language

You do not need to rebuild an image every time something changes. Upload an image and describe the exact edit: change a material, replace an object, adjust a background or continue refining the scene through another turn.

Example command: “Keep the room unchanged. Make the sofa moss green and replace the floor lamp with brushed brass.”

One Character Across More Than One Scene

Use a reference character and continue the visual story across new environments, framing and wardrobe while preserving a stronger sense of identity.
