Your edits save themselves
The editor writes your work to your account automatically, about a second after you stop making changes. There is no save button and nothing to remember. What gets saved is the whole working state: the current image, every text layer, any popped-out cutout, and the undo history.
Close the tab, lose your connection, or come back three days later — the editor recognises the draft and offers to restore it, telling you how old it is ("saved 2 hours ago").
The save indicator
| State | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Saving | A write is in flight |
| Saved | Everything up to your last change is stored on your account |
| Not saved | The write failed — usually a dropped connection |
If it says the draft is not saved, do not close the tab. Make any small change to trigger another write, and if it still fails, download the current image so nothing generated is lost.
Undo
Every generative edit — a mood, an expression, a swap, a custom instruction — pushes the previous image onto an undo stack before it replaces it. Undo steps back one edit at a time.
The stack keeps the most recent steps rather than the entire session's history. In practice you are never more than a few steps from where you want to be, and if you are, the better move is to undo to a known-good state and write one precise instruction rather than unwinding twelve edits.
Undo is your credit-saving tool
Every generative edit costs a request. Undo does not. When an edit goes wrong, undo first and then rethink the instruction — stacking a corrective edit on top of a bad one costs two requests and usually produces a worse image than starting from the good state.
Draft vs. finished thumbnail
Two different things live in your account:
- The thumbnail — the generated image itself, visible in Projects and Downloads. It is the record of what you made.
- The draft — your in-progress editing state for that thumbnail: layers, cutouts, undo history. It is what the editor restores when you return.
Downloading flattens the current state into a file on your machine. That file is yours and is unaffected by anything you do afterwards in the editor.
Across devices
Drafts are stored on your account, not in your browser, so a draft started on your desktop opens on your laptop. (Your display name and watermark preference are the exception — those are per-browser.)
Habits worth having
- Download the good version when you get one. A file on disk is the only state that cannot be edited further by accident.
- Undo before correcting. Always cheaper than layering a fix on a mistake.
- Do layer work last. Text layers survive generative edits, but positioning type against artwork you are still changing is wasted effort.
- Watch the indicator on a bad connection. It is the only thing that tells you a write did not land.
