Luma Uni-1 is a unified still-image model that can generate from text, use visual references and edit a source image. Web search is deliberately disabled so a run depends only on the prompt and uploaded images.

## Best for

- Fast visual exploration
- Low-cost edits
- Reference-guided generation
- Manga concepts

## How to use

1. Choose text generation or upload an image to edit.
2. Identify additional references by order.
3. Pick Auto or Manga.
4. Generate a small batch and compare prompt fidelity.

## Settings explained

### Style

Auto follows the prompt; Manga switches to the model’s documented manga treatment.

### Reference Images

The first image becomes the edit source; any remaining images provide additional visual guidance.

## Prompt examples

### Visual concept

> Quiet futurist library carved into pale stone, warm pools of light, tiny readers for scale, elegant editorial composition

### Reference edit

> Keep the source subject and camera angle unchanged; apply the colour palette and material language of the additional references

## Limitations

- The current operation returns one native image per request
- The interface uses a conservative four-image cap
- Web search is disabled for deterministic generation

## Pricing and credits

## Frequently asked questions

### When should I use the standard tier?

Use the standard tier for inexpensive iteration and everyday edits.

### Does it search the web?

No. The optional upstream web-search field is forced off so generation is deterministic and does not introduce unquoted external context.
