Presets — Save and Reuse Your Studio Settings

Save your favorite studio configurations as reusable presets and access them instantly across all five studios.

What are Presets?

Presets are saved studio configurations that capture all your creative choices — controls, references, models, output settings, and prompts — in one reusable package. Think of them as quick-access shortcuts: set up your perfect look once, save it, and apply it again with a single click.

Each preset is linked to one of the five studios (Packshots, Social Media, Editorial, Cinematic, or 3D Rendering) and stores everything you'd normally configure manually.

Why use Presets?

If you're a brand or marketing manager, presets help you:

  • Stay on-brand — save your brand's visual style once and reuse it across campaigns

  • Save time — skip repetitive setup and jump straight to generating

  • Ensure consistency — your team uses the same settings for every asset

  • Scale production — quickly generate batches of images with identical configurations

  • Experiment faster — save multiple creative directions and compare results easily

What gets saved in a Preset?

When you create a preset, it captures:

  • Name and description — give it a recognizable name so you (and your team) can find it quickly

  • Thumbnail — a custom preview image that shows in the preset grid

  • Studio controls — all your selected options (background, lighting, camera angle, mood, composition, and more — depending on the studio)

  • Custom models — 1 style model, up to 5 object models, up to 5 person models, and up to 5 scene models linked to the preset

  • Reference image uploads — up to 5 reference images that guide the generation

  • Prompt — custom text instructions that get added to your generation prompt

  • Output settings — aspect ratio, number of images (1–4), and resolution (1K, 2K, or 4K)

  • Visibility — private (only you) or team (everyone in your organization)

How to create a Preset

There are two ways to create a preset:

Option 1: From the Presets page

  1. Go to the Presets page from the sidebar

  2. Click Create Preset

  3. Select a studio — choose which of the five studios this preset is for

  4. Configure your preset using the four tabs:

  • Settings — name, description, visibility (private or team), thumbnail, aspect ratio, image count, and resolution

  • Controls — browse and select options from the studio's control categories (background, lighting, camera angle, etc.)

  • References — link 1 style model, up to 5 object models, up to 5 person models, up to 5 scene models, and upload up to 5 reference images

  • Prompt — add custom prompt text and choose whether it goes before or after the main prompt

  1. Click Save to create your preset

Option 2: Save as Preset from a studio

This is the fastest way — perfect when you've just set up a great configuration and want to keep it.

  1. Open any studio and configure your controls, references, prompt, and output settings as usual

  2. Click the Save as Preset button above the Generate button

  3. Give your preset a name

  4. Done — your entire current setup is saved as a new preset

The preset automatically captures everything: all selected controls, all linked models (up to 5 per category, except style which is 1), all your reference image uploads (up to 5), prompt text, and output settings. It defaults to private visibility.

How to use a Preset in a studio

  1. Open any studio (Packshots, Social Media, Editorial, Cinematic, or 3D Rendering)

  2. Click the Presets selector above the Generate button

  3. Browse or search through your available presets — you'll see both your private presets and any team presets shared by your organization

  4. Click a preset to load its entire configuration into the studio

  5. Adjust anything if needed — you can fine-tune controls or change settings after loading

  6. Click Generate

When you apply a preset, it automatically updates all controls, references, models, prompt text, and output settings (including aspect ratio) to match the saved configuration.

Visibility: Private vs. Team

  • Private — only you can see and use the preset

  • Team — everyone in your organization can access and use it

You can change visibility at any time. If you switch a preset to team visibility and it uses private custom models, you'll be asked to confirm sharing those models with your organization.

Tips for getting the most out of Presets

  • Create presets for recurring campaigns — if you produce weekly social media content, save a preset with your brand's look and feel

  • Use descriptive names — "Summer Campaign 2025 — Instagram" is easier to find than "Preset 1"

  • Add a thumbnail — a preview image makes it much faster to spot the right preset in the grid

  • Start from a studio — if you're experimenting and land on something great, use "Save as Preset" so you don't lose that configuration

  • Share with your team — set visibility to Team so colleagues can generate on-brand content without setting up controls from scratch
