# Writing Assistant

Develop a rough idea into a clearer prompt before you generate.

Use Writing Assistant when you know the direction but want help describing it. It refines the **prompt**; it does not generate the finished image or video for you.

### Image

Describe the image on the left. Review the suggested prompt, model and framing on the right.

### Video

For video, describe the movement too. Check the model, framing and duration before applying.

## Give it something to develop

A short idea is enough. Include the subject and the feeling you want; for video, mention the action or camera movement too.

> Could you make this feel like a warmer, late-afternoon coffee ad? Keep the blue cup, a gentle camera push and one continuous shot. Use only Gemini Omni 1.1 Flash, landscape 16:9, four seconds. Keep the prompt clear and natural.

Useful requests include making a prompt more specific, exploring a visual direction, or describing what should change while preserving the rest of a reference.

## Review, then apply

Open **Writing Assistant** from the Prompt Bar, describe your change, and send it. The suggestion updates the draft on the right. You can edit that wording directly and review the model, ratio, and video length below it.

Choose **Apply Changes** to bring the prompt and settings back into your setup.

Applied back to Sessions: the new wording, one model, and the requested output settings.

Applying is not generating. Check the prompt, references, model, and credit estimate, then use **Generate** when you are ready.

### Using the panel on a phone

Review the prompt and settings in the **Suggested Improvement** card, then use **Apply** at the top. The separate desktop draft column is hidden on smaller screens.

The same suggestion in the compact phone layout.

If tapping the Writing Assistant icon opens the prompt field instead, use the desktop interface for now.

Flow has the same assistant in its [main Prompt Bar](https://www.creativly.ai/docs/flow/prompt-bar#develop-the-wording-first).
