AI Image Lab

What is AI Image Lab?

AI Image Lab is an online platform for generating AI images and discovering prompt phrases; it is also known by the name AiImageLab. Users can either enter text directly to create images, or they can browse through categorized examples of prompt phrases and adapt those examples into creation instructions suitable for their own projects.

The platform currently combines a picture generator, over 500 prompt phrases, more than 20 sub-categories, as well as creation guidelines. It offers versions in both Chinese and English, and is suitable for beginners who are not skilled at writing complex prompts, as well as for creators who need to produce marketing images, character illustrations, and product visuals on a regular basis.

Core functions

1. Converting text into images

After the user selects a model, enters a description of the image, and sets the scale and resolution, the image can be generated in the browser. The result will be displayed in the generation area; once logged in, the user can also view their past generation history.

2. Reference image generation and editing

The current generator allows the upload of up to 5 reference images, which can be used to convey information regarding the characters, composition, materials, or visual style. However, these reference images do not guarantee perfect consistency in terms of characters and details; it is still necessary to examine brand elements and key characteristics of the subject for any important commercial material.

3. Mask control

Users can upload additional mask images in PNG format to enable the model to focus on specific areas. Masks are useful for making local replacements, adjusting the background, or controlling the scope of edits; however, the official website does not guarantee pixel-by-pixel results similar to those provided by professional photo editing software.

4. Image aspect ratio and resolution

The generation page offers proportional options such as square, portrait, and landscape formats, and allows the selection of the output resolution. The pricing page specifies that both 1K and 4K resolutions count as one image per quota, with no additional charges applied for higher resolutions.

5. Curated prompt library

The prompt library claims to contain over 500 examples, covering areas such as artistic illustration, portrait photography, commercial product design, 3D gaming, logo design, interior architecture, creative abstraction, and office/educational applications. Each entry includes a title, description, and category, making it suitable as a starting point for creation.

6. Creation Guidelines

The in-site guide explains how to choose image generators, the structure of prompts, and the trends among different models. Compared to galleries that only display finished works, this information is more useful for beginners in understanding the relationships between subject, style, scene, lighting, composition, and the desired output.

7. Prompt API and trend alerts

The official website introduces an API for image prompts in REST format, as well as a portal for receiving alerts regarding trends in AI-generated images. The public pages do not display self-service API documentation or unified pricing information; to integrate such services, companies need to contact the platform to clarify details related to fields, rate limits, authorization, and service guarantees.

What are the categories of prompt libraries?

• Art and illustration: conceptual art, stylized painting, posters, and narrative illustrations.
• Portraits and photography: editing portraits, fashion photography, film-like portraits, and character portrayal.
• Products and commerce: e-commerce main images, advertising visuals, packaging concepts, and product launch images.
• Games and 3D: character design, mechs, scene concepts, and 3D rendering styles.
• Logo and design: brand symbols, font arrangement, and visual identity direction.
• Architecture and Interior Design: Space concepts, architectural appearance, home furnishings, and material usage.
• Creativity and abstraction: Surrealism, collage, experimental visual art, and social media creativity.
• Office and education: Presentation visuals, visual representations of knowledge, and materials for teaching scenarios.

How to use AI Image Lab to create images

1. Enter the image generator, and first determine the purpose of the artwork as well as the desired aspect ratio.
2. Select an available model and enter the requirements regarding the subject, scene, style, lighting, and composition.
3. When it is necessary to maintain the characteristics of a person or a product, upload one or more clear reference images.
4. When modifying only a specific area, prepare a PNG mask and check that its size matches that of the original image.
5. Select the resolution and submit it for generation; wait for the result to appear in the generation area.
6. Zoom in to examine details that are prone to errors, such as text, hands, edges, brand logos, and repetitive patterns.
7. Download the desired results as soon as possible; according to the platform’s terms, the generated images are typically retained for only 14 days.

How to use prompt libraries to improve the quality of generated images

1. Select cases from the category whose purpose is most similar; do not make decisions solely based on how attractive the visuals are.
2. After copying the prompt structure, replace the subject, scenario, and brand information to avoid copying it verbatim.
3. Retain effective control terms such as lens, lighting, materials, and composition, and remove contradictory descriptions.
4. First, verify the overall direction with fewer requirements, and then gradually add more details and constraints in subsequent rounds.
5. Compare the results of different models and ratios, and note down the stable approach that is suitable for your project.
6. Manual photo editing, fact-checking, and copyright risk assessment are carried out before publication.

Member prices and image quotas

AI Image Lab offers a variety of pricing options, including a free trial, monthly subscriptions, refueling packs with no expiration date, and custom solutions for businesses. The dollar-based packages displayed on the pricing page during this verification are shown below; comparisons between different packages are provided in a table format.

How is the quota deducted?

The price page indicates that one quota is deducted for each image generated; the same quota applies to 1K and 4K versions. Subscriptions can be canceled at any time, and the purchased benefits remain valid until the end of the current billing cycle.

Is the unused credit carried over?

The price FAQ states that both PRO and ELITE plans allow unused credits to be carried over for one month; however, there is no ELITE option listed in the current package options, and the rules regarding credit carryover for SPARK and PLUS are not clearly specified. It is necessary to check the account settlement page and consult customer service before making a purchase, while it is clearly stated that the credits associated with fuel top-up packages never expire.

Refund rules

The terms of service stipulate that payments are non-refundable in general, but an exception is made for billing cycles that have not been used at all. If no credits are used after a new purchase or renewal, it is possible to contact customer service to request a refund; once credits are used, this exception no longer applies.

Commercial and content rights

The platform’s terms state that users retain the right to enter prompts and to generate images within the limits permitted by the respective AI models. Users also grant the platform a non-exclusive license to store, transmit, display, copy, and distribute these prompts as well as the generated images for the purpose of operating the service.

• The SPARK package page clearly specifies the commercial licensing terms, but similar information for other packages needs to be checked again at the time of purchase.
• Users are responsible for granting the necessary permissions for the reference images, trademarks, portraits, and content they upload.
• The platform makes use of various AI APIs, and the ultimate rights are also subject to the terms set by the specific model providers.
• Do not generate illegal, explicit, hateful, harassing, or other content prohibited by the platform.
• Whether purely AI-generated images can be protected by copyright depends on local laws and the contribution of human creativity.

Privacy and image retention period

The platform handles account details, usage records, device information, payment details, prompt texts, and the images that are generated. If a user decides to make their works public, the corresponding prompt texts or images will be visible to other visitors; therefore, it is not advisable to upload identification documents, confidential customer information, or unpublished product details.

The images generated are retained on the server for 14 days, after which they may be automatically deleted. Users should download them and create their own backups as soon as they are generated; they should not rely on the web page’s history as a long-term storage source for such images.
