Why Image Generation in Plexon?
Conversational Image Creation
Generate images in the same conversation where you're writing code or planning architecture. Ask the AI to create mockups, diagrams, icons, or illustrations without switching context.
Instant Results
Images generate in seconds and appear inline. No waiting for external services, no downloading files, no copy-pasting between apps.
Creative + Technical
Use image generation alongside code: create UI mockups, generate placeholder images for development, visualize data architectures, or produce marketing assets.
Transparent Cost Tracking
Every generation shows its cost in the status bar. Subscription models like Nano Banana 2 Pro offer unlimited generations at a flat rate. No per-image surprises.
Multi-Provider Support
Image generation works with any provider that supports it: Google Gemini and more. Switch providers freely without changing your workflow.
Image-to-Image
Provide a reference image and describe how to transform it. Supports style transfer, editing, and variations. The AI uses your image as a starting point for generation.
Full Resolution Output
Generated images show at their full resolution. Click one to see it full size, right-click to open it, show it in its folder or copy it, or reference it in a follow-up message to refine it.
