Guides
Step-by-step walkthroughs for AIKIZI features and creative workflows.
Idea to reel: the whole workflow, and what it cost
One idea carried through a decode, a style reference, four generations, an upscale, a character and three sounds. Every step's credits summed — 196 to write, 55 to repeat.
Voice, sound effects and music for a reel: three calls, 0 credits
A twenty-second reel's soundtrack built from three ElevenLabs calls on aikizi. What voice, SFX and music normally cost, why ours cost nothing, and how to write each prompt.
Character consistency: one master reference, and the marks that vanish
A character made and re-posed for 8 credits each. Face, hair, age and wardrobe survived; the scar through her eyebrow did not. Why models carry structure and drop marks, and how to keep them.
The gallery as a reference library: 16,000 prompts, free to read
Every published decode carries the prompt that made its picture, a palette with hex codes and a layered style DNA. How to search it, how to start a picture from one, and when the 10-credit download is worth paying.
Upscale for 15 credits or regenerate at 4K for 24
One picture taken both ways. The upscale kept the composition, the light and every element; the 4K regeneration made a different picture. When each one wins, and the cheapest order to work in.
Prompts that work on Nano Banana Pro: the four-pass shape
Composition, light, colour, materials — the order a decode writes in and the order the model reads best. Three real prompts, what we changed, and the words that do nothing.
Midjourney to aikizi: decode a picture, rebuild its look on Nano Banana Pro
A Midjourney V8 portrait decoded for 3 credits, its own prompt run back through Nano Banana Pro with the original as a style reference. What held, what drifted, and where Midjourney stands as of September 2026.
Style references on aikizi: 3 on Basic, 10 on Pro, and the six roles
One prompt run with no references and with three, plus the six reference roles and the exact sentence each one writes into your prompt. What a reference carries that a prompt word cannot.
1K, 2K, 4K: when 4K is worth 24 credits
One prompt run at all three sizes on Nano Banana Pro. What the extra pixels resolve, what a 4K image prints at in centimetres, and why the three sizes are three different pictures rather than one.
Nano Banana Pro against Nano Banana 2: the same prompt, 8 credits and 4
One prompt run through both Google models at 1K. What the extra 4 credits bought, what the cheaper model did better, and the three cases where Nano Banana Pro is the only choice.
How AI image generation is done: an 11-part guide made on aikizi
Eleven pages on how an AI image actually gets made, each written by making them. Real credits, real pictures, prices read out of the code. Costs, models, sizes, references, character consistency and the full workflow.
What one AI image costs on aikizi, and what that buys
8 credits at 1K, 16 at 2K, 24 at 4K on Nano Banana Pro; 4, 8 and 12 on Nano Banana 2. The full credit table, each plan divided into pictures a month, and the pictures those numbers bought.
