Free AI Prompt Generator

Transform simple ideas into detailed prompts for AI image and video generators. The prompt enhancer runs on Gemini 3.8 Flash (Claude Haiku on the free tier), with output tailored for Veo 3.1, Midjourney V8.2, GPT Image 2.5, and Nano Banana 2.1. Small enhancements make a big difference.

It's built for the bigfoot-vlog and glass-cutting-ASMR stuff. Learning prompt engineering yourself is still worth the time (guides below), but this gets you started.

Recommended Workflow: Frame to Video

The best results come from a Frame to Video approach rather than Text to Video:

  1. Generate a starting frame using Midjourney V8.2, GPT Image 2.5, or Nano Banana 2.1
  2. Use that frame in Veo 3.1's Frame to Video mode
  3. Iterate on images first, cheaper and faster than iterating on video

Why Frame to Video?

Image EditingSee Midjourney's docsEdits with masks and multiple reference imagesConversational edits, up to 14 reference images

If you're just starting out, Nano Banana in Gemini or GPT Image in ChatGPT both work well with plain natural language: describe the scene in full sentences instead of stacking keywords. For artistic work, Midjourney V8.2 offers the highest visual quality, though its parameters take some learning. For text-heavy or branded content, GPT Image 2.5 renders exact text well when you quote it word for word. Nano Banana 2.1 has the most flexible editing workflow, with conversational edits, up to 14 reference images, and Google Image Search grounding for real-world subjects.

This is why I built Generate with a frame into the tool. It handles prompt-engineering, initial frame + follow-up edits, and outputs 16:9.
