Comparisons
Candy AI vs SoulGen vs Promptchan for image creation
Decide whether you need a new character picture, a change inside an existing image or more space around it. Choose the workflow for that job rather than treating every image button as the same kind of editor.
In this article
Start a new picture from a character and prompt
With us, select or create an AI character, then describe the setting, clothing, pose and action you want. This character-and-text workflow makes a new picture, including requests in supported chats.
SoulGen supports text-to-image creation in realistic and anime styles. Promptchan starts in Create with a prompt and style; its separate negative prompt field lets you describe unwanted elements.
Match the starting material to the control
| Your next action | Candy AI | SoulGen | Promptchan |
|---|---|---|---|
| Begin a picture | Selected or newly created character plus text | Text prompt with realistic or anime output | Create with a prompt and style |
| Rework a result | Revise the picture request and generate again | Select an image area and describe the change | Open Tweak on a result for a focused change |
| Reuse a starting point | Keep the character choice and refine the scene | Reference-photo portraits; uploads or existing creations for edits | Clone community prompt and settings into Create |
Choose a focused change or a wider canvas
For a fictional adult gardener at a potting bench, decide whether you want a different coat or a wider crop. In SoulGen, select the area to change for an edit; use Extend for more canvas. Its extender offers Upload Image and My Creations as starting points.
On Promptchan, Tweak can change the coat or greenhouse lighting in a generated result. Clone instead brings a community creation's settings into Create. Inspect the new result; neither route promises exact preservation of every detail.
Check access and the charge for the next action
Our paid text allowance does not mean unlimited pictures; image actions can use tokens. Promptchan uses Gems for generation. Check SoulGen's Pro editing and batch-creation options separately. Before paying, review the selected action, plan and total charge, without converting one service's credits into another's.
Set rights and consent before choosing a reference
Use original fictional adults and material you own or are authorised to use. Promptchan prohibits real, identifiable people even with consent. SoulGen requires rights to supplied material and restricts reuse of other users' shared content.
Our sharing rules prohibit commercial reuse of generated characters, dialogue, images and stories. Having a personal copy does not automatically give you publication rights.
Questions and answers
Can I assume Candy AI will edit a photograph I upload?
Use our character-and-text route for a new image. If uploaded-image editing is essential, confirm that exact capability before subscribing; do not infer it from a character portrait.
Does Promptchan's Clone give me rights outside the service?
Clone reuses a creation's prompt and settings within Promptchan. Public sharing does not grant other users an outside-use licence; check rights before republishing or using someone else's material elsewhere.
Is a real person's photo an interchangeable reference in all three tools?
No. Promptchan prohibits identifiable real people, even with consent. SoulGen's reference-photo route does not remove rights and privacy obligations. Choose original fictional material and verify what the intended control accepts.
