Image & Design

Generate and adapt visual assets while checking rights, brand fit and editability.

What good looks like

A good tool improves the outcome or reduces the time required without creating unacceptable privacy, cost, quality or dependency risks.

A practical test

  1. Define the visual job
  2. Test prompt consistency
  3. Check export quality
  4. Review commercial-use terms

Common trap

Testing on a polished demo instead of your real work. Use the same task, source material and success criteria for every candidate.
