Explore the AI Generate inspector

---

The AI Generate inspector provides a streamlined workspace for creating and transforming images with AI. It includes two workflow-specific tabs — Create Image and Remix Image — which share the same set of controls, but arrange them in an order tailored to each workflow. Create Image is designed for starting from scratch. It begins with the text prompt and lets you add an optional reference image for guidance, highlighting models suited for generating new images from your instructions. Remix Image starts with the image you want to modify, followed by your prompt, and offers models optimized for transforming or enhancing an existing image.

The image below illustrates the main components of the AI Generate inspector.

In addition to these workflow tabs, the AI Generate inspector also features an Information tab, which provides a central place to manage and access AI-related resources. It includes sections for AI credits, where you can view your balance, purchase credits, and access your account; Corel Generative AI terms, which link to the Corel Generative AI Policy and describe the conditions under which Generative AI features are available; and Help and learning, offering guidance on generating AI images.

Use the Information tab to find helpful resources in one place.

You can collapse sections of the AI Generate inspector if you don’t need all options at once. For example, if you have already selected a style preset and won’t change it again for a project, you can collapse the Style section to avoid scrolling past it repeatedly.
