- Multiple styles: Optimize for artistic, photographic, technical, anime, or realistic output.
- Image & video support: Generate prompts optimized for either image or video generation.
- Instant results: Fast processing for seamless workflow integration.
- Ultra-affordable: Just $0.003 per optimization — 333 runs for $1.
- Quality boost: Get better results from your generation models.
Parameters
| Parameter | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| image | No | Reference image to analyze and describe. |
| text | No | Text prompt to enhance and optimize. |
| style | No | Output style: default, artistic, photographic, technical, anime, or realistic. |
| mode | No | Target generation type: image or video. Default: image. |
How to Use
From Image
- Upload an image — the image you want to describe or recreate.
- Select style — choose the aesthetic direction.
- Select mode — image or video generation target.
- Run — get an optimized prompt describing the image.
From Text
- Enter your prompt — your basic idea or description.
- Select style — choose the aesthetic direction.
- Select mode — image or video generation target.
- Run — get an enhanced, detailed prompt.
Pricing
Flat rate per optimization.
| Output | Cost |
|---|---|
| Per optimization | $0.003 |
| 100 optimizations | $0.30 |
| 1,000 optimizations | $3.00 |
Style Guide
| Style | Description | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| default | Balanced, general-purpose optimization | Any content type |
| artistic | Creative, expressive, painterly language | Art, illustrations, creative work |
| photographic | Camera, lens, and lighting terminology | Photos, portraits, products |
| technical | Precise, detailed specifications | Technical diagrams, precise output |
| anime | Japanese animation style keywords | Anime characters, manga art |
| realistic | Photorealistic, lifelike descriptions | Realistic renders, simulations |
Mode Options
| Mode | Description |
|---|---|
| image | Optimizes prompts for text-to-image models |
| video | Optimizes prompts for text-to-video models with motion descriptions |
Best Use Cases
- Image Captioning — Generate detailed prompts from reference images.
- Prompt Enhancement — Upgrade basic prompts to detailed descriptions.
- Style Conversion — Reframe prompts for different aesthetic styles.
- Cross-model Optimization — Adapt prompts for image vs video generation.
- Batch Processing — Optimize many prompts affordably at scale.
- Learning Tool — Understand what makes effective generation prompts.
Pro Tips for Best Results
- Use image input to reverse-engineer prompts from existing artwork.
- Match style to your target model’s strengths (anime for anime models, etc.).
- Switch mode to “video” when targeting video generation for motion-aware prompts.
- Combine: upload image + add text for context-aware optimization.
- At $0.003 per run, experiment freely to find optimal prompt styles.
Notes
- Provide either image or text (or both) as input.
- Processing is near-instant for rapid iteration.
- Video mode adds motion and temporal descriptions to prompts.
- Results can be directly used with generation models on WaveSpeed.

Task Submission Parameters
Request Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| image | string | No | - | Image to use as context for prompt optimization. | |
| text | string | No | - | - | Text to expand or use as context for prompt optimization. |
| style | string | No | default | default, artistic, photographic, technical, anime, realistic | Style or tone to apply to the optimized prompt. |
| mode | string | No | image | image, video | The aim of the optimization, either for image or video generation. |
| enable_sync_mode | boolean | No | false | - | If set to `true`, the request attempts to wait for the generated result and return outputs in the same response. If the result is not ready within the sync wait window, the API can return a timeout body while the task continues processing. This option is only available via the API and is supported only by some models. |
