Hey Aha,
Image generation in Byword just got materially better. A new engine, and a new way to teach it what your brand actually looks like.
Two engine jumps you can see right away: editorial-grade photography, and readable text inside images. Three examples below. No retouching, no curating.
Morning commute.
Editorial-grade realism. Natural light, real surfaces, real skin. The kind of photograph that sits next to writing instead of fighting it. Hands hold things correctly, faces fall into shadow correctly, light behaves the way light behaves.
Record store interior.
Readable text inside images. Menus, packaging, signage, chart titles, the words on a section divider. They render correctly now. So an article about a record store can show one, not a blurry-letter approximation.
Independent bookshop, golden hour.
Scenes that look like real places. Glass with reflections. Signage where it belongs. Light that matches the time of day.

Brand
Make it yours.
While we were rebuilding the engine, we rebuilt the controls in image settings too. New ways to teach Byword what your brand looks like, without writing a prompt.
|
Logo
Upload once. Auto places it where it belongs (devices, packaging, signage), pin it on every image, or keep it off when scenes shouldn't carry a wordmark.
|
|
Brand colors
Set a primary and accent. Slide their influence from subtle to dominant. Byword folds them into every scene.
|
|
Brand references
Upload products, people, places, and visual style references. The same packaging, the same faces, the same feel across every article.
|
|
Photo direction
Tune lighting (natural daylight, warm indoor, studio, low light), shot type (close-up, wide, flat lay, product detail), and whether to show people.
|
|
Style system
Refined realistic, illustrated, and abstract families. New sub-styles (natural photo, cinematic, watercolor, isometric, and more) with live previews.
|
|
All of it is live today, on every plan. About a minute to set up.
