Illustration Generator is free for experimenting with [drafts](#drafts-and-final-illustrations). Final illustrations are available with a subscription to a paid plan, which also includes a 30-day history and commercial use.


### Drafts and final illustrations

Think of drafts as sketches or previews. They let you get an idea of how the final image will look and quickly iterate before generating the enhanced image. You can generate any number of drafts for free until you’re happy with the suggested image. Final images are way more detailed than drafts and require more computing power and generation time. To finalize drafts, you’ve got to have a subscription.

#### Text-to-image

Prompts are simple text instructions that explain to the AI what you want to see in the illustration. For better results, we recommend that you use short, straightforward descriptions, delimiting them with commas or semicolons. Example: "funny cat in a silly hat, sitting in a basket".
