AI images

Describe a picture and PressHelm makes it with your own AI account, then adds it to your media library, ready to use. You see the model and the estimated cost before anything is spent.

How it works#

  1. You describe the image#

    What it shows, the mood, where it will go. PressHelm writes a detailed prompt and alt text.

  2. You see model and cost#

    PressHelm picks the best-value image model your key offers and shows it with the estimated cost on the approval card.

  3. You approve#

    Only then is the image made. Your spend limit is checked first, and the cost is recorded with your other AI usage.

  4. It is in your media library#

    With alt text and title. Ask to place it as a featured image or in a page (and PressHelm checks it shows).

Your daily and monthly spend limit applies to images too. An image that would take you over the limit is refused before anything is spent.
