Model Input

Input

The text prompt describing the image to generate. Put any words you want rendered inside the image in quotes.

Magic Prompt: automatically enriches the prompt before generation. None uses the prompt as written; Large applies the most enrichment for the highest-quality result.

The size of the generated image. Use a preset string (e.g. 'landscape_16_9') or a custom {width, height} object.

The speed/quality/cost tradeoff. TURBO is fastest and cheapest, BALANCED is the default, QUALITY is best but slowest and most expensive. Affects both speed and cost.

The acceleration level to use.

Min: 1 - Max: 4

The number of images to generate.

The same seed and the same prompt given to the same version of the model will output the same image every time.

Safety checker can only be disabled on API call

Model Details

Ideogram V4 turns a text prompt into a high-quality image, with a standout strength most image models still struggle with: rendering accurate, legible text inside the image. Ask for a logo, a movie poster, a product label, a greeting card, or a street sign with real words on it, and Ideogram V4 keeps the spelling, layout, and typography coherent. It also handles general photorealistic and illustrative generation across a wide range of styles and aspect ratios.

## Features - Accurate in-image text rendering — logos, posters, signage, packaging, and typographic art with legible words - Broad style range — photoreal, illustration, 3D, painterly, and graphic-design looks - Flexible framing — named size presets (square, portrait, landscape) or a custom width/height - Batch generation — request up to four images per prompt to compare options

## What it's good at - Designs that depend on correct text: brand logos, ad creative, posters, book covers, menus - Clean typographic compositions where letters must stay sharp and correctly spelled - Versatile concept art and marketing visuals from a single descriptive prompt

## Tips - Put the exact words you want rendered in quotes in your prompt (e.g. a poster that reads "GRAND OPENING") - Keep on-image text short and specific; long paragraphs are harder to render perfectly - Pick a size preset that matches the medium — portrait for posters, landscape for banners

## Advanced Configuration

### rendering_speed Controls the speed/quality/cost tradeoff of generation. `TURBO` is the fastest and cheapest, `BALANCED` (the default) is the middle ground, and `QUALITY` produces the best results but is the slowest and most expensive. This setting affects both how long generation takes **and** how much each image costs, so choose `TURBO` for quick drafts and `QUALITY` for final hero images.

```js input: { prompt: "...", rendering_speed: "QUALITY" } ```

### expansion_model This is the "Magic Prompt" feature, which automatically enriches your prompt with extra descriptive detail before generation. Options are `None`, `Medium`, and `Large` — `Large` applies the most enrichment and tends to give the highest-quality, most detailed result, while `None` uses your prompt exactly as written for full control. Use a larger value when your prompt is short or sparse, and `None` when you want precise, literal adherence.

```js input: { prompt: "...", expansion_model: "Large" } ```

To run via the ModelRunner JavaScript client: ```js import { modelrunner } from "@modelrunner/client";

const result = await modelrunner.subscribe("ideogram/ideogram-v4", { input: { prompt: "a vintage travel poster that reads \"VISIT MARS\"", image_size: "portrait_4_3", rendering_speed: "QUALITY", expansion_model: "Large", }, }); ```
