Generate your first image to get startedA free text-to-image generator, with guides to help you use it well
IMAGEKA turns a written description into an image. Type what you want to see, enter the security code and press Generate; a few seconds later the result appears in the panel on the right. There is no account to create, and the images stay in your own browser until you download them.
Under the hood IMAGEKA uses several open-source image models, each with different strengths, and automatically picks one for every request: a photorealism specialist for people, products and food, an anime specialist, a model for painterly and traditional styles, and a fast general-purpose model that is best at short text in images, design and concept art. All of them are released under open licences that allow commercial use. None of them is perfect — hands, crowds and long text still go wrong sometimes — and our troubleshooting guide explains how to work around that.
The generator is free because the site shows ads. Alongside it we publish practical, hands-on guides written from using the tool every day: how to structure a prompt, which lighting and camera words actually change the result, how to plan an image for a social post, and what you can and cannot safely do with AI images commercially.
No account needed
Open the page and start. We don't ask for a name or email. A short security code keeps automated scripts out, and there is a fair-use limit of 100 generations per person per day.
Images stay on your device
Finished images are kept in your browser's local storage, not in an account on our servers. That is private, but it also means clearing your browser data deletes them — download anything you want to keep.
Simple, honest controls
Choose square, landscape or portrait; make 1, 2 or 4 images at once; and optionally add one of 12 style presets. Each preset simply adds a short style description to your prompt — the styles guide shows the exact words.
How to make your first image
Four steps. The first one matters most.
Describe the picture
Write one or two full sentences: who or what, doing what, where, and in what light. “A ginger cat asleep on a sunny windowsill, soft morning light” beats “cat”.
Pick a size and style
Open Settings. Use landscape for scenes and banners, portrait for people and phone screens. If your sentence already names a style, set the preset to Default.
Enter the code and generate
Type the five digits from the security image and press Generate. Codes expire after three minutes; tap the refresh icon for a new one.
Change one thing, then repeat
If the result is close but not right, change a single detail — the light, the angle, one adjective — and run it again. Download the keepers.
A better prompt in one minute
The model can only draw what you describe. Most disappointing results come from prompts that leave too much to chance.
a house in the forest
The model has to guess the era, the season, the time of day, the camera position and the mood — so you get an average of all of them.

Subject, setting, time, viewpoint, mood and light are all decided. Every word gives the model something to draw.
A reliable order for a prompt is subject → details → setting → composition → lighting → style. Write it as a natural sentence rather than a long list of tags; phrases like “8K, masterpiece, best quality” add very little. Your style preset and words such as “photograph”, “anime” or “watercolour” also decide which of our models draws the image, so say clearly what kind of picture you want.

What IMAGEKA is good for — and what it isn't
Knowing the limits up front saves a lot of regenerating.
| Works well | Struggles or not supported |
|---|---|
| Single subjects, scenes and landscapes described in plain sentences | Crowds and small faces in the background, which can look smeared |
| Mood images, backgrounds and blog or slide illustrations | Hands holding objects and fingers in complex poses |
| Short text in quotes, such as a two- or three-word sign | Long sentences, paragraphs or exact logos |
| Quick ideas and mood boards to brief a designer | Editing part of an image, inpainting or upscaling (there are no editing tools) |
| Many styles: photo, painting, anime, 3D, pixel art | Accurate pictures of your real product, real people or real places |
For anything that has to be true to life — your actual product, your staff, a real location — use a real photograph. Our small-business guide covers where AI images help and where they can mislead.
Frequently asked questions
Yes. There is no paid plan and no account. The site is supported by advertising and by voluntary donations. To keep it available for everyone there is a fair-use limit of 100 generations per person per day.
IMAGEKA uses several open-source text-to-image models and picks one automatically based on your prompt and style preset — for example a photorealism model for people, products and food, an anime model for the Anime preset, a painterly model for oil, watercolour, sketch and pixel art, and a fast general model for everything else, including text in images. If a specialist model has a problem, we retry with the general model.
We claim no ownership of the images you create, and every model we use is released under an open licence that permits commercial use. Be aware that in many countries purely AI-generated images get little or no copyright protection, and you are responsible for not infringing trademarks or people's likeness. Our commercial-use guide explains the details; it is general information, not legal advice.
Only in your own browser's local storage. We do not keep a copy in an account. If you clear your browser data, switch browsers or use private browsing, the gallery will be empty, so download the images you want to keep.
Your prompt is sent to our image-generation provider to create the image. We do not store prompt text in our logs; we record the time, your IP address and whether the request succeeded, so we can enforce the daily limit and prevent abuse. See the privacy policy for full details.
A content filter blocks prompts for sexual content involving minors, graphic violence and similar material, and a safety checker blurs outputs it flags as explicit. Occasionally an innocent prompt is flagged; rephrasing it more specifically usually helps.
Yes for photorealistic, anime and painterly images, where it is a useful way to remove unwanted elements (we also add sensible defaults such as blurry, bad hands and watermark). Our fast general model, used for most other prompts, pays it little attention, so for those it works better to describe the scene you want in positive terms.
512×512, 768×768 and 1024×1024 (square), 1024×768 (landscape) and 768×1024 (portrait). Photorealistic, anime and painterly images are made at least 768×768 because those models look poor below that. For other shapes, such as 16:9 or 9:16, generate the closest size with some empty space around the subject and crop afterwards.
