p-image: Text-to-Image Model

What is p-image?

p-image is Pruna's premium text-to-image AI model engineered for developers who need ultra-fast generation without sacrificing quality. Built with automatic prompt enhancement and a two-stage refinement architecture, p-image transforms text descriptions into detailed, high-resolution images in seconds. Unlike models that force you to choose between speed and quality, p-image delivers both through intelligent preprocessing and optimized inference. With flexible aspect ratio support and custom dimension controls, it's designed for production environments where performance and visual fidelity matter equally.

Key Features

• Two-Stage Refinement Process: Automatic enhancement pipeline ensures vivid detail and composition quality without manual prompt engineering
• Ultra-Fast Generation: Optimized inference speeds make real-time and high-volume applications practical
• Flexible Aspect Ratios: Support for common ratios (1:1, 16:9, 9:16, 4:3, 3:2) plus fully custom dimensions from 256px to 1440px
• Reproducible Outputs: Seed control for consistent generation across iterations
• High Rate Limits: 250 requests per minute for enterprise-scale deployments
• Built-in Safety: Optional safety checker ensures content compliance

Best Use Cases

E-commerce & Marketing: Generate product visualization mockups, social media assets, and ad creatives at scale with consistent brand quality.

Content Creation Platforms: Power user-facing image generation features in apps, websites, and creative tools where speed directly impacts user experience.

Prototyping & Design: Rapidly iterate on visual concepts for UI mockups, storyboards, and client presentations without waiting for renders.

Game Development: Create placeholder assets, environment concepts, and texture references during pre-production phases.

Prompt Tips and Output Quality

Start Simple, Let the Model Enhance: p-image includes automatic prompt enhancement, so descriptive but straightforward prompts often work best. Instead of "extremely detailed photorealistic 8K render," try "sunset over a calm ocean with fishing boats."

Aspect Ratio Matters: Choose aspect ratios based on your end use—16:9 for landscape banners, 9:16 for mobile stories, 1:1 for profile images. Custom dimensions give precise control when targeting specific canvas sizes.

Use Seeds for Consistency: When refining a particular output, lock the seed parameter (default 42) to reproduce the same base composition while tweaking your prompt. Set seed to -1 for completely random variation.

Resolution Sweet Spots: The model supports dimensions from 256px to 1440px. For high-quality results, stick to 1024px+ on the longest edge. Smaller dimensions generate faster but with less fine detail.

FAQs

How fast is p-image compared to other text-to-image models?
p-image is optimized for ultra-fast generation through a streamlined two-stage architecture. It consistently outperforms standard diffusion models in time-to-first-image while maintaining output quality, making it ideal for interactive applications and high-volume workflows.

Can I use p-image for commercial projects?
Yes. p-image is designed for production use including commercial applications. Review Segmind's terms of service for specific licensing details.

What makes the automatic prompt enhancement different?
Rather than requiring extensive prompt engineering, p-image intelligently expands simple descriptions into generation-optimized instructions. This reduces the skill barrier for achieving quality results while giving experienced users a strong baseline to refine.

What's the difference between aspect ratio presets and custom dimensions?
Aspect ratio presets (like 16:9, 4:3) automatically calculate optimal dimensions. Custom mode unlocks manual width and height control between 256-1440px, useful when targeting exact pixel specifications for design systems or platform requirements.

How do I reproduce a specific image?
Use the seed parameter. Each seed produces a deterministic random sequence—same seed + same prompt = same output. This is crucial for A/B testing prompts or iterating on a particular composition.

Does p-image require GPU resources on my end?
No. p-image runs entirely on Segmind's infrastructure via API. You submit prompts and parameters; the model handles computation and returns generated images, making it accessible regardless of your local hardware.
