Prompt Quest is a launchpad that enables you to build visual stories one image at a time with consistent styles in any aspect ratio. You can also control the camera angle of your scene. To begin your first Quest, simply pick an art style and aspect ratio on the left rail and begin prompting. Each image is saved in a narrative navigator to the right of the viewport. You can re-generate an image, shift between your current image and next scene above the prompt box, and sequence your sotry in the navigator. At any point, you can download all your scenes or export to comic book, multi-media article or video!

Today, we release Story Cards. Each Story Card contains the instructions for visualizing a scene. After synthesizing your text, you will be taken straight to Story Cards. Here you can edit your scene prompts, characters, locations and shot styles. By using Story Cards you can get your scene exactly right before spending tokens on image generation!
