Intro
The page readers land on when they open your story: drafted for you by the AI, or built block by block.
The intro is where readers land when they click on your story. There are two ways to create one: have the AI draft it for you, or build it yourself.
Draft one for me
Choose a few options, and the AI puts the whole intro together. Then edit it however you like.
Build it yourself
Add text, image, and decoration blocks one at a time, and arrange them the way you want.
Have the AI draft it
At the very top of the intro editor is a button that says Draft one for me. Clicking it opens a menu of options for the AI to use when it drafts your intro.
Intro style
There are three main options:
Guided intro
Uses more of the intro's own tools to do the work. Images are mostly just pictures of what they are, with no explanation on them.
Image focused
Most of your information is on the images themselves. This leans toward the way GPT presents information.
Let AI choose
The AI decides which direction works better for your story.
Steer it
Under the style options is a prompt area where you can steer the direction of the AI.
Pictures
Next, choose whether Krea or GPT Image makes the images, and how many images you want it to generate, if any. You can choose 0 to have it generate a layout only, then insert images into it yourself.
Then choose what the images should be of. You can pick characters, places, objects, or moments, or let the AI decide, which also lets it use a mix.
| Characters | Only ones you haven't drawn. Anybody with a picture is placed, never redrawn. |
|---|---|
| Places | The setting, the weather over it, the architecture. |
| Objects | The thing the plot turns on, the thing left behind. |
| Moments | A room before anybody enters, an aftermath, a light in a window. |
You can also choose which images you've already uploaded to the story should be used.
Draft it
Press Draft it, and the AI spends a few minutes putting everything together. You can leave the page, and you'll get a notification when it's finished. Then load the draft into the editor and edit it however you like.
- Draft itChoose your options and start the draft.
- WaitIt takes a few minutes. You can leave the page.
- Get notifiedA notification tells you the draft is ready.
- EditLoad it into the editor and change anything you like.
If any part doesn't generate, the credits for that part are refunded. If you order three images and only two arrive, you pay for two.
Build it yourself
To make the intro yourself, go down to the main box and start adding blocks. There are three main block types: text, image, and decoration.
Text
Words you write, styled as a paragraph, heading, or quote.
Image
A picture or video, uploaded, generated, or reused.
Decoration
Spacing or an ornament between other blocks.
Text
A text block is a block you can write inside. Text blocks have two sets of edit options.
Selected text applies an edit to the part of the text you've selected: bold, italics, color, or a link. The editor shows you a preview of how it will look.
The shrine has stood on the mountain for three hundred years, and no one has ever seen who lights its lanterns.
Whole block edits apply to the block as a whole. First, choose the style of the text. Paragraph keeps it in a typical format. Heading makes it stand out, and works best with less text. Quote puts it in a quote box.
The village keeps its doors shut after the first snow.
The Fox-Fire Shrine
"Gods do not un-notice."
You can also choose the font, the size of the text, how it's aligned, a color for the whole block, and bold or italics. To see a font change, highlight the text.
Background puts a color or a picture behind the words.
Image
Image blocks let you upload images, or use ones you already have, to make your intro more visually interesting.
- Click the plus to upload from your device, the same as Upload image.
- Generate image creates an image for that block. Describe the image you want, or have the AI write a description from everything it knows about your story.
- Add a negative prompt to tell the AI what you don't want, such as extra fingers or a specific item.
- Image model lets you choose between Krea and GPT Image, and Shape sets whether the image is landscape, portrait, or square.
- Or pick an image you've already uploaded to the story.
The edit options for an image block are at the top. You can change the type of media to a video, then paste a YouTube or Vimeo link. Background puts a color behind your image.
Width lets you put several pieces together on the same row. It's especially effective on desktop.
Decoration
Decoration blocks add spacing or decorative elements between your other blocks. Choose the type of element under Decoration. Background puts a color or an image behind the decoration.
Every block
Reuse lets you duplicate a block, or copy and paste its style. The arrows on the left move the block up and down, and the X deletes it.
To edit another block, select it. Selecting a block also lets you add a new block below it.
Preview and save
Once you've made a change, undo and redo buttons appear at the top. There's also a mobile and a desktop preview, so you can see how everything fits together on different devices.
Last, View story page saves the intro and shows you what it looks like for a reader who clicks on your story.
