How to use it

1
Open a studio
Go to the image studio for pictures or the video studio for clips.
2
Pick Synthwave
Choose Synthwave in the style picker. The preview tile shows the look.
3
Write your prompt
Describe the subject and scene in your own words. The style adds the look on top; your text is never replaced.
4
Generate
The credit cost is shown before you generate, and it is the same with or without a style.

What it costs

A style is free to use: it only changes the prompt, so the price is the normal price of the generation.

For example, one Seedream 4.5 image is 2 credits and a 5-second Seedance 2.0 clip at 720p is 15 credits, with or without a style.

Questions

How is Synthwave different from Cyberpunk?

Synthwave is bright and nostalgic, with 80s sunsets and chrome. Cyberpunk is dark and rainy, with neon cities at night.

Does a style cost extra credits?

No. A style only adds words to the prompt that is sent, so you pay the normal price: for example 2 credits for a Seedream 4.5 image.

Does the style replace my prompt?

No. Your prompt stays exactly as you wrote it. The style is added on top to set the look.

Can I switch styles on the same prompt?

Yes. Keep the prompt, pick a different style and generate again to compare looks side by side.
