Quick Tips

Follow these best practices for optimal results

1

Leave options as default when unsure

The AI makes smart choices based on your prompt.

2

Mention style in your prompt, too

Writing "flat design logo" often produces better results than just selecting the Flat style.

3

Start simple, then refine

Use Icon complexity first to experiment quickly, then switch to Illustration or Scene.

4

Match complexity to purpose

Don't use Scene complexity for a simple logo; it adds unnecessary detail.

5

Use transparent backgrounds for versatility

SVGs with transparent backgrounds can be placed anywhere.

6

Try multiple generations

AI results vary, so generate a few versions and pick your favourite.
