Ideogram settings guide

Ideogram is known for rendering readable text inside images; use it for logos, posters and social banners that need words in the design.

Use the 'Design' style preset for clean, commercial-ready outputs — it produces flat vector-like illustrations perfect for UI and brand work.

Add exact text you want in quotes within your prompt — Ideogram reads quoted text as literal on-image text, no hallucination.

Use the Magic Prompt feature to expand your simple description into a detailed prompt automatically — saves prompt engineering effort.

Ideogram's free tier gives 10 slow generations per day — enough for daily design exploration without paying.

Use the 'Describe' feature to reverse-engineer any uploaded image into a reusable prompt — great for matching an existing visual style.

Generate at 16:9 for social media covers and 4:5 for Instagram posts — native aspect ratios prevent quality loss from cropping.
