Start a creation from a recipe

Use an effect or app preset, edit its prompt and understand what Recreate resets before submitting a new task.

Choose a recipe that matches your input

Video Effects and Photo Effects start from a source image. Creative Apps and Image Styles cover different tasks, so read the page instructions before uploading.

A recipe selects a capability and provides a prompt and supported parameter defaults. It does not guarantee the subject, composition or motion in the output. Pages without real examples do not display a sample wall.

Keep the useful defaults and change the subject

Replace bracketed placeholders with your subject. Add a clear action, setting or camera move. The recipe page keeps the capability fixed so that editing an image recipe does not accidentally switch the task to audio or text-only video.

Some recipes specify an aspect ratio. For example, the Short Video app starts at 9:16. Changing the model can change its available settings; check the controls before submitting.

What Recreate does

Recreate restores the recipe prompt, its default model and supported parameter defaults. It also clears the uploaded reference image, so upload the source you intend to use.

Submitting carries the recipe identifier into the task. Successful tasks contribute to the recipe usage count; failed tasks do not. If usage information cannot be loaded, the page keeps the static recipe list without inventing a popularity number.

Review the input before generating

Use images you are allowed to process. Review the prompt, model and credits, then submit. A failed task releases its task credits, and a new creation is a new paid request when accepted.

  1. Open a recipe from one of the four collections.
  2. Upload the required reference and replace prompt placeholders.
  3. Review the model and supported settings.
  4. Submit and follow the result in your creations.
