Getting the Most from MAI Image 2.5

  1. Step 1

    Describe the Whole Scene

    MAI Image 2.5 follows written prompts closely, so spell out the subject, setting, mood, and lighting in one clear description.

  2. Step 2

    Keep Prompts Focused

    Cost rises a little as your prompt grows. Trim filler words and keep the description tight to control the gold cost per image.

  3. Step 3

    Name the Style

    Add a style cue such as 'oil painting' or 'cinematic photo' near the start of your prompt to steer the look.

  4. Step 4

    Add a Reference to Edit

    Upload one reference image and MAI Image 2.5 switches to edit mode, reworking that picture from your instructions while keeping the character and composition consistent.

  5. Step 5

    Generate in Batches

    Request several images at once to compare compositions before you commit to a single direction.
