How to write a good prompt for Ideogram (the full formula)

With images, the prompt controls everything: subject, style, light, composition and level of detail. A model like Ideogram can produce anything from photorealism you cannot tell from a real photo to artistic illustration — it depends entirely on how you ask.

The formula that works: Subject → Style/medium → Light → Composition → Details → Format. Add concrete references (lens type, colour palette, mood) to tighten the result.

The ingredients of a good image

For text in an image (posters, logos, packaging) put the exact wording in quotation marks and say where it goes: "the text «50% OFF» at the top, large, legible". Models that are good at typography (GPT Image, Nano Banana Pro) render it correctly, accented characters included.

The full workflow: from idea to post

Here are the exact steps a creator goes through to produce post-ready content, with no team and no editing software:

  1. Start from an idea and a platformDecide what you want to say and where you are posting (TikTok, Reels, Shorts, YouTube, feed). The platform dictates the format and the length.
  2. Write the prompt using the formulaSubject + style + light + composition + details + format. Add concrete references.
  3. Pick the right modelFlux for photorealism and brand work, GPT Image for text in images, Nano Banana Pro for speed and volume.
  4. Generate 2-3 variantsDo not expect perfection first time. Change one element at a time (the light, the angle, the format) and compare. Each variant costs only a few credits.
  5. Refine and exportUse upscaling if you need higher resolution, remove or replace the background for consistency, then download in the format you want.
  6. Publish and measurePost at your audience's peak hour, watch what works and double down on the winning format. Repeat consistently.

Common mistakes (and how to avoid them)

Not specifying the style
"An image of a product" can come out as anything. Say "product photography, studio light, white background" and Ideogram knows exactly what you want.
The light is missing from the prompt
Light accounts for 80% of the visual impact. Always add a type of light (studio, window, golden hour, neon).
Expecting perfect text from any model
For text in an image use the models that are good at typography (GPT Image, Nano Banana Pro) and write the exact wording in quotation marks.
The wrong format for the platform
Product → 1:1, feed → 4:5, story → 9:16, banner → 16:9. Put the format in the prompt.
Only one variant
Generate a few and choose. It is faster and cheaper than forcing one prompt to come out perfect.

What it costs and how to save credits

On Viralio you pay for what you actually use, through credits. A clip or an image costs a few credits depending on the model and settings — premium models (native audio, high resolution) cost more per generation than the fast ones.

Three habits that make your credits go several times further:

Key takeaways
