Using reference images
Most image and video models accept reference images that guide identity, product appearance, composition, or style. Attach references via the reference area near the prompt box (or drag-and-drop). Two things to know: Click a reference to preview it full-size; use the ✕ button to remove it. References are per-generation. If you switch models or leave the page, re-check that your references are still attached before generating.Few readersWhy doesn't my output match my reference?
Different models interpret references differently - some prioritize identity, others composition or style. Identity drift is a known behavior of current-generation AI models, not a PromptWise setting. To improve consistency: use a Seed instead of raw reference images use models known for identity preservation generate multiple variations and select the best keep prompts specific about which reference controls what (via @ mentions)Few readersReferencing with @ mentions
In the prompt box, type @ to open a picker of your attached references and saved Seeds, then select the one you mean (e.g. @Image1). Write the tag exactly as shown - spacing matters (@Image1, not @Image 1). Use @ mentions to tell the model what each reference is for: "Put the product from @Image1 on the table from @Image2."Few readersOmni references
Omni-reference models accept multiple reference types in a single generation - for example up to 9 images, 3 videos, and 3 audio clips on supporting models. Use omni references for complex scenes: several characters, a product, a location, and a voice sample, all in one request. Notes: Audio reference clips must be under 15 seconds. If you get a validation error with many references attached, reduce the count and retry - limits vary by model.Few readersSeeds: reusable characters and styles
Seeds let you save a character or style once and reuse it everywhere. Create a Seed from reference images (Seeds section, 🌱), then reference it in any prompt with @. This is the most reliable way to keep a character consistent across many generations.Few readers
