What is the regenerate feature?

The Regenerate feature completely redraws an illustration from your story text. Unlike Edit, which tweaks small details, Regenerate gives the AI a fresh start while still following your story.

Updated this week

When to Use Regenerate

  • The entire image feels wrong or doesn’t match the story

  • A detail keeps repeating across edits (like a stroller or hat)

  • Too many edits have made the picture drift away from the style you want

  • You want a totally new version of the scene

Example prompts:

  • “Regenerate this page in watercolor style, keep the same family, focus on the aquarium tank.”

  • “Regenerate with a softer, bedtime mood.”


How It Works

  • The AI rereads the left-hand story page to decide what to draw

  • It ignores previous edits and starts fresh

  • You can add a short guiding prompt to push the image in the right direction


Reference Image

  • Use a Reference to keep characters looking consistent after a fresh start

  • Example: Choose a page where your child’s face and hair look accurate and apply it here


Style Guide Image

  • Use a Style Guide to keep the new illustration’s tone and colors aligned with the rest of the book

  • Example: Pick a page with soft watercolor tones so the regenerated page matches


Tips for Better Results

  • Keep prompts short and specific: one guiding idea is enough

  • Combine a Reference + Style Guide for consistency

  • If the story text doesn’t describe what you want, use Rewrite before regenerating


Edit vs. Regenerate vs. Rewrite

  • Edit: Fix small details, keep most of the page the same

  • Regenerate: Start over with a whole new image from your story

  • Rewrite: Adjust the story text so the AI knows what to illustrate
