Question 1

What is an AI image generator for bead patterns?

Accepted Answer

Beadify's AI image generator creates source images that are easier to convert into Perler, Hama, or Artkal bead patterns. You can generate an image first, then use Beadify to turn it into an editable bead pattern.

Question 2

Can I create a bead pattern image from a text prompt?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Use Text to Image when you want to describe a character, object, color palette, or scene from scratch. Clear prompts produce cleaner AI images for later bead pattern conversion.

Question 3

When should I use image to image generation?

Accepted Answer

Use Image to Image when you already have a sketch, product photo, pixel art reference, or inspiration image. Reference images help the AI image generator preserve composition while changing style, color, or detail.

Question 4

How many reference images can I upload?

Accepted Answer

On the AI Image Generator page you can upload up to 9 reference images in Image to Image mode. In the Beadify workbench dialog, the reference set is capped at 4 images to keep the pattern creation flow compact.

Question 5

Are generated images immediately printable bead patterns?

Accepted Answer

No. The AI image is a source image. After generation, use Beadify to convert it into a bead pattern, adjust the board, review colors, and export a printable pattern.

Question 6

Which AI model should I choose for bead art?

Accepted Answer

Start with the default model for fast bead-art exploration. Use the model comparison table when you need stronger text rendering, reference-image editing, product-style polish, or final high-fidelity image quality.

Question 7

How many credits does AI image generation use?

Accepted Answer

Credit cost depends on the generation mode. Text to Image currently costs 2 credits, while Image to Image costs 4 credits because it processes reference images.
