Flow AI Video is a workspace for generating images and short videos from prompts and reference media. You can prepare a request on the homepage or open a dedicated image or video generator. Once you submit, the Create page shows the task and its result.

Choose the right starting page

  • Image generator: describe an image, or add image references to guide a new generation. Select an available image model and its supported settings.
  • Video generator: start from text, add Start or End images, or choose Reference Video when your selected workflow supports it. Choose the model before setting the format and duration.
  • Homepage: enter a prompt and choose Image or Video to prepare a generation from the main composer.

For a product shot, begin with the image generator. To explore motion from an existing product photo, use the video generator and add that photo as a Start image.

Write a brief you can review

Name the subject first. Then describe its setting, lighting, and the action you want to see. For video, add a camera direction such as a slow push or a steady side view.

A useful first brief is:

A green glass perfume bottle on pale stone beside a window. Soft morning light. The camera slowly moves closer while the bottle remains still.

This gives you specific things to check in the result: the bottle, the surface, the light, and the movement. Change one part of the prompt when you want a different take.

Review the model and credit estimate

Model choices affect the available settings and estimated credit cost. Sign in with Google, choose your model, and review the estimate before submitting. The generator shows the supported options for your selection.

You can compare subscriptions and one-time credit packs on the pricing page. For yearly plans, the year's included credits are granted together after payment; they are not issued as monthly installments.

Find your results

The Create page shows generation progress and completed media. Assets is where you can find your own generated images and videos after returning to the site. Wait for the task to complete before previewing or downloading the result.

Before publishing, check the generated media for product details, lettering, visual artifacts, and suitability for your intended use. Reference images guide generation, but they do not guarantee an exact copy.

Create your first result

Choose one clear subject and prepare a short prompt. Open the image generator for a still image, or open the video generator to put a scene in motion.
