Combo

Combine products, text prompts, and image references within a single scene. Place instructions directly on the canvas to define where changes should occur.

Basic Combo: text instruction and image reference

Basic Combo: product replacement (precise mode)


Combo Sticker types

Combo has three sticker types. Place one or more on your scene to instruct what to change.

Text instruction

Describe a change in words. Use it when you know exactly what you want to say, like adding condensation to a bottle or darkening a background.

Image reference

Add a reference image for style, texture, or composition. Use it when a picture explains the change better than words.

Product reference

Use a product reference to bring a specific product into your scene, whether you're replacing a product that's already there or adding a new one.
