One production path
Describe the still. Optionally attach a source image when you want ChatGPT Image 2.5, Nano Banana 2, Nano Banana 2.1, Nano Banana Pro, FLUX 3 Image, Ideogram V4.5, MAI Image 2.5, MAI Image 2.5 Pro, Seedream 5 Lite, Seedream 5 Flash, Muse Image, Grok Imagine Image 2.0, Qwen Image 3, or Kling Omni 3 to edit.
Choose ChatGPT Image 2.5, a Nano Banana SKU, FLUX 3 Image, FLUX 2 Pro, Ideogram V4.5, MAI Image 2.5, MAI Image 2.5 Pro, Seedream 5 Lite, Seedream 5 Flash, Muse Image, Grok Imagine Image 2.0, Qwen Image 3, Kling Omni 3, or Recraft V4.1 Flash and an aspect ratio that model actually accepts.
When the still finishes, it lands in your Clip Studio Library.
Ready before you generate
Model, aspect ratio, and a source still all matter.
Image Lab quotes each setup before you generate. Monthly plan allowance is used first. Failed generations that do not produce a usable still are refunded.
Questions, answered
Image Lab is one workspace for generating stills across 17 image models in Clip Studio: OpenAI ChatGPT Image 2.5, Google Nano Banana, Nano Banana 2, Nano Banana 2.1, Nano Banana Pro, Black Forest Labs FLUX 3 Image and FLUX 2 Pro, Ideogram V4.5, Microsoft MAI Image 2.5, Microsoft MAI Image 2.5 Pro, ByteDance Seedream 5 Lite and Seedream 5 Flash, Meta Muse Image, xAI Grok Imagine Image 2.0, Alibaba Qwen Image 3, Kuaishou Kling Omni 3, and Recraft V4.1 Flash. Write a prompt, pick a model and aspect ratio, generate, and keep the still in your library.
Ad Lab turns a website into locked ad layouts, plus cinematic tip packs, Proof packs, and Explain films. Video Lab turns a prompt or a still into a motion clip. Image Lab is still generation: you leave with a downloadable image, not an ad set or a film.
Each generation is quoted before you run it. Model, aspect ratio, and whether you attach a source still change the quote. Each generation uses your monthly generation allowance.
