How it works

Three steps to your first generation.

  1. Pick a character

    Choose from preset fictional characters, or upload a permitted fictional reference.

  2. Set the scene

    Add a pose, location, outfit, and style. Or write a custom prompt.

  3. Get your art

    Results land in seconds. Remix, save, or generate again.

Same character, any style

Identity comes from your reference, so it survives every change of style, outfit and place.

The same character rendered in semi-realistic, anime, cartoon and comics styles on the same balcony

One character, four styles

Semi-realistic, anime, cartoon, comics. The reference stays the same — only the render style changes.

The same character on a rooftop, in a doorway framed by roses, in a lamplit bedroom and on a beach at sunset

One character, every scene

A rooftop at golden hour, a doorway full of roses, a lamplit bedroom, a beach at sunset. Backgrounds are built, not pasted.

FAQ

Everything else worth knowing before you generate.

Gensomnia is an AI art generator for fictional and stylized character artwork. Pick a character from the collection, upload a permitted fictional reference or describe one in words, set the scene, and get instant art — no installs, no waiting list.
An AI character art generator turns a character reference and a few scene settings into new artwork of that same character. Instead of describing a person in words every time, you pick or upload the character once and change the pose, outfit, location and style around them.
It starts from a character reference instead of a text description, so the same character stays recognisable across scenes. Everything else — pose, outfit, location, style — is chosen from preset libraries rather than written as prompt syntax, and it runs in the browser in 10–15 seconds per image.
Yes — that is the point of starting from a reference. Identity comes from the reference image rather than from adjectives in a prompt, so the same character carries across a new pose, outfit and location. Full-body proportions are where it slips first — we published the frames and the score.
Yes. You can upload a reference image or describe a character in words — the reference needs to be a fictional character you have the right to use. What counts as permitted is spelled out in our Acceptable Use Policy.
The libraries hold 50 locations, 50 poses, 50 outfits and 4 render styles, and new ones are added every day. Locations run from everyday rooms — bedroom, classroom, library, gym — to places like a crystal cave, a pirate ship or a hot spring; outfits cover uniforms, dresses, swimwear, fantasy and seasonal sets.
Locations are built scenes rather than blurred backdrops: a cyberpunk alley comes with neon signage and wet reflective pavement, a 1950s diner with its own counter clutter. There are 50 to choose from, from everyday rooms to a crystal cave or a hot spring — see the same character across three of them.
Yes. Alongside images you can generate short video — five seconds at 720p — from the same character reference.
10–15 seconds for an image. There is nothing to install and no queue to sit in — you stay on the page and the result appears.
No. Gensomnia runs in the browser on desktop and phone — no install, no app store, and no GPU of your own.
You get a free generation before you even sign up, and an account gives you three free generations in total — the one you already made included. Generating more runs on credits, and the current plans are shown inside the product.
Yes. Your library is visible only to you, and nothing is shared or published automatically. Putting an image into the public feed is a separate, deliberate choice you make per image.
No — every character is fictional and AI-generated, with nothing modelled on a real, identifiable person. Gensomnia is intended for adults (18+), and the full rules are in our Acceptable Use Policy.
