IMAGE GEN

Text-to-Image AI Generator

Describe an image. Get an image. Skrrol's text-to-image runs the strongest models behind one prompt box and pairs them with a real editor for finishing work.

About this generator

Text-to-image is the most direct way to create AI imagery — you write a description, the model paints it. Skrrol AI's text-to-image flow is built for the way real creators work: pick a model that fits the look (GPT Image for clean, instructable scenes; Nano Banana for fast, expressive variants), set the aspect ratio for where it'll publish, write the prompt, and generate.

What sets Skrrol's text-to-image apart isn't a single magic feature — it's the surrounding studio. Once an image lands, the full editor opens on top of it: crop, color-grade, mask, layer, type, and export at any resolution. You can branch a prompt into multiple variants, build a moodboard, animate the still into video via image-to-video, or drop it on a timeline as a B-roll still. The library remembers every prompt and every candidate so re-rolling is one click.

Good prompting is part subject, part style, part framing. "A red bicycle leaning against a brick wall" is fine. "A vintage red bicycle leaning against an old red brick wall, late afternoon golden light, slightly low angle, 35mm film grain, 16:9" is better. The Skrrol editor surfaces inline prompt tips so you don't have to memorise prompt-engineering blogs to get good results.

Text-to-image is the cheapest paid generation modality — far less than video, slightly more than nothing. The Free tier covers learning the prompt language; Standard at €7.99 covers a steady creator workflow; Advanced and Advanced Pro cover agency-scale ideation and production. Every output is local-first — saved to your device, not a Skrrol content cloud, until you choose to export.

Capabilities

  • Multiple text-to-image models

    Switch between GPT Image, Nano Banana, and other supported text-to-image models per generation. Pick the best tool for each shot.

  • Aspect ratios that match the platform

    Generate directly into 9:16, 1:1, 16:9, and custom ratios. No post-crop guesswork.

  • Branch and re-roll

    Each prompt is saved with its candidates. Branch a prompt with a small tweak, compare side-by-side, and pick the winner.

  • In-editor finishing

    Crop, color-grade, mask, layer, and type the result inside Skrrol — no round-trip to another tool.

  • Inline prompt guidance

    The prompt panel surfaces structure tips (subject, style, lighting, framing) so good prompts come naturally.

  • Local-first storage

    Outputs land in your local project. Export when you want them out; otherwise they stay private to your device.

What it produces — worked examples

YouTube thumbnail

Prompt / inputBold high-contrast portrait of a man looking surprised at a glowing laptop, neon cyan and magenta rim light, dark background, 16:9, leave space on the right for text

Result: A thumbnail-ready image with deliberate negative space for a headline overlay — high CTR aesthetics out of the box.

Blog hero

Prompt / inputCinematic photo of an empty modernist office at sunset, soft amber light, long shadows on the floor, 21:9 ultrawide, editorial style

Result: A wide hero image that holds up at large sizes and tolerates type overlay — drops into a long-form post header.

Product packshot

Prompt / inputStudio shot of a matte black wireless earbud case on a clean white background, soft top light, slight reflection, 1:1, e-commerce style

Result: A clean square packshot suitable for marketplace listings — re-roll for variant angles without staging a real shoot.

Stylised illustration

Prompt / inputFlat-design vector-style illustration, two friends laughing on a park bench, autumn colours, 1:1, no text, friendly and warm

Result: A friendly illustrated graphic for blog posts, social, and product onboarding screens.

Pricing & credits

Skrrol AI uses VL credits across all generators — image, video, voice, and music. The same credit pool applies; heavier modalities (video) use more credits per generation than lighter ones (image, voice). Choose a plan and use credits across any generator.

Standard — €7.99/mo

8000 VL credits — hundreds of mid-tier image generations per month. Suitable for thumbnails, blog hero art, and social posts at a steady cadence.

Advanced — €16.99/mo

17000 VL credits — heavier volume for moodboards, ad creative iteration, and product photography variants.

Advanced Pro — €34.99/mo

Frequently asked

How many credits does a text-to-image generation cost?+

Image is the cheapest modality on Skrrol. A single mid-tier image is a small fraction of a Standard plan's monthly credit budget — most creators don't think about per-image cost.

Can I generate transparent PNGs?+

Use the editor's background remover after generation, or prompt for a clean isolated subject on a plain background and remove the background in one click.

How do I get consistent characters across multiple images?+

Use image-to-image with the first generation as a reference, or prompt with a specific identity description (clothing, features, lighting) and reuse it across prompts. Image-to-image is the more reliable route.

Are the outputs commercial-use?+

Paid Skrrol plans are designed for commercial creator and small-business use, subject to the underlying model's licence terms. For high-stakes commercial use, check the active model's licence.

What aspect ratios are supported?+

9:16, 1:1, 16:9, 4:5, 21:9, and custom dimensions, depending on model. Skrrol surfaces the supported set for whichever model you pick.

Can I edit the prompt and re-generate?+

Yes — every prompt is saved with its candidates. Branch the prompt, tweak it, and re-generate as many times as you need.

Pair with editor features

Every generation opens directly in the Skrrol editor. These features are particularly useful as the next step after a text-to-image ai generator run.
