Chat-Based Generation

PropAify uses a unique chat-to-generate workflow that makes creating and refining images as simple as having a conversation.

How It Works

Every chat thread is dedicated to image generation only—not general discussion. Each prompt you send produces an image (or set of images).

Key Concepts

  • One mode per chat: Each thread uses either SVG or JPG mode
  • Up to 25 images per chat: Generate and iterate within limits
  • Reference previous images: Build upon earlier generations in the same thread
  • Cycle through results: Review all images in the thread
  • Download options: Individual or bulk download

Chat Thread Workflow

1. Start a New Chat

  • Choose your mode (SVG or JPG)
  • Optionally attach a template
  • Set up your workspace

2. First Prompt

Send your initial request with:

  • Descriptive text prompt
  • Up to 5 image uploads
  • Optional labels (property, logo, etc.)

3. Review Results

  • AI generates your image(s)
  • Cycle through variations
  • Identify what works

4. Refine via Chat

Request changes:

  • “Make the headline bigger”
  • “Change background to blue”
  • “Add a luxury gold border”

5. Build & Iterate

  • Reference earlier images
  • Mix and match elements
  • Create up to 25 total images

6. Download

  • Download individual images
  • Or download all at once

Generation Limits

Per Chat Thread

  • Maximum 25 images can be generated
  • This includes all iterations and variations
  • Plan your iterations accordingly

Per Prompt

  • Up to 5 image uploads
  • 1 template attachment per chat
  • 2 MB maximum per image

Referencing Within a Chat

One of PropAify’s most powerful features is the ability to reference any previously generated image in the same chat thread.

How to Reference

Example workflow:

  1. Generate Image A with modern layout
  2. Generate Image B with different colors
  3. Prompt: “Combine the layout from Image A with the colors from Image B”

Benefits

  • Mix and match successful elements
  • Create variations efficiently
  • Build upon previous work
  • Explore combinations quickly

Best Practices

âś… Effective Prompting

  • Be specific: “Modern luxury listing with gold accents” vs “make it nice”
  • Reference styles: “Instagram-style property showcase”
  • Describe layout: “Large image on left, details on right”
  • Specify colors: “Navy blue background with white text”

âś… Efficient Workflow

  • Start with broader concepts, refine details
  • Use the first few generations to explore directions
  • Save successful templates for reuse
  • Keep track of which images work best

âś… Credit Management

  • Monitor your credit balance (shown in top bar)
  • Plan generation batches wisely
  • Remember: each generation uses credits

❌ Common Mistakes

  • Vague prompts: “Make it better”
  • Too many requests in one prompt
  • Not reviewing before downloading
  • Exceeding 25 image limit

Advanced Techniques

Template-First Workflow

  1. Attach a proven template
  2. Upload new property photos
  3. Generate with minimal prompt
  4. Template provides consistent structure

Iterative Refinement

  1. Generate initial concept
  2. Identify one specific improvement
  3. Request that change only
  4. Repeat for each refinement

Style Exploration

  1. Generate 3-5 different style variations
  2. Choose the best direction
  3. Refine that style in detail
  4. Save as template

Managing Your Chats

When to Start a New Chat

  • Switching between SVG and JPG modes
  • Starting a completely different project
  • Approaching the 25-image limit
  • Want to use a different template

When to Continue Existing Chat

  • Refining current design
  • Creating variations of same concept
  • Building on previous generations
  • Haven’t reached image limit

Credits and Usage

  • Credit indicator: Top bar shows your balance
  • Per generation cost: 50 credits for each AI image
  • SVG edits: Free when using SVG editor
  • Monitor usage: Keep an eye before large batches
