Create · Image to prompt

Every image hides a prompt.

Upload a picture. A vision model reads its subject, light, lens, palette and mood, then Retrace writes it in the syntax of the generator you use.

How it works

Three steps, about ten seconds.

Your browser resizes the image to 1280 pixels on the long edge and sends that copy. The original never leaves your device.

1

Drop an image

JPG, PNG, WebP or GIF. Or start from one of the sample images.

2

A vision model reads it

Subject, setting, composition, light, lens, palette, mood and small details, recorded as structured notes.

3

Copy a prompt that fits

The notes are written in your generator’s syntax: sentences, parameters, tags or a video shot.

Who it is for

Six ways people use it.

Anyone who works from reference images and writes prompts for an image or video model.

Client mood boards

Turn approved reference photos into written prompts, so the whole team starts from the same description.

Style study

See how an image you admire breaks down into light, lens, palette and composition.

Product imagery

Describe one hero shot precisely, then vary the product under the same studio conditions.

Photographers

Document the look of your own work as a prompt you can share or build on.

Switching generators

The same reading is written in each format, so moving tools does not mean starting over.

Faster iteration

Every field is visible, so you can change the light or the palette and keep the rest.
