NomuDesign image generation
NomuDesign is Nomu's built-in AI workspace for product imagery. It is not a "one-click background swap" filter, it is a composable canvas: you wire source images, reference images, prompts and generation nodes, the AI generates new images, and you push them back to the product gallery with one click.
Without a signed-in Nomu account the whole design workspace is replaced by a sign-in wall. Once you are signed in you can run generation, which consumes AI credits from Account & credits.
How to enter
All three entries land on the same design page:
- "Go to NomuDesign" from the single-product drawer or group page
- "NomuDesign" in the action sheet, which pops a product picker first
- Auto-redirect after applying a result
The canvas is one-to-one with a product: one product, one draft, no loss on refresh.
The four node types
| Node | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Product image | An image picked from the product gallery, used as source or final apply target |
| Reference image | An uploaded reference image that visually guides the prompt |
| Prompt | The text given to the AI, with one-click AI Optimize |
| Generation | The run node, carrying model, tier, status and result |
Nodes wire into whatever chain you need: reference image, prompt, generation. The order you connect them in decides what the AI sees.
Models & tiers
The dropdown in the top-right of a generation node switches model and tier:
- Doubao-Seedream-5.0-lite: tiers 2K / 3K / 4K
- Doubao-Seedream-5.0-pro: tiers 1K / 1.5K / 2K
If the tier you were on does not exist for the new model, it falls back to the new model's first tier.
Prompt templates & AI optimize
The prompt node comes with these tools:
- Preset templates: built-in common prompts, one-click insert
- Template list / dropdown: your saved template collection
- Save as template: save the current prompt as your own template (with category) for reuse later
- AI optimize: call AI to rewrite or strengthen the prompt, consumes credits
Generated images & history
Each generation node keeps the latest 5 results. You can:
- Scrub through every version as thumbnails
- Click to roll back to an older version
- Download a single image
- Use the canvas-level lightbox to flip through pages
Running a node again overwrites: the node holds only the current version. Older images that no downstream node still points at are cleaned up.
Apply to product
After a generation, hit Apply to product…:
- Apply means append. The new image is written into the product gallery and stays independent of the generated original
- The target can be the canvas's owning product or any sibling in the same group, so several products in one group can share a single design
- If the product already has 9 main images, a warning shows and nothing is appended
After apply, a confirmation modal lists the targets. Confirm and the new images are written into the product gallery, and you are bounced back to the canvas.
Relationship with the listing pipeline
NomuDesign does not participate in the listing step table. It is pre-listing work: after generating and applying, you go through the regular listing pipeline, and the image step picks up the new product images directly.
FAQ
Generation failed or insufficient credits?
The credit card on the Account & credits page shows the balance. Insufficient balance or service unavailability shows an explicit message.
Does AI optimize double-charge?
No. A timeout retry of the same operation is charged once.
Does Apply replace the original image?
No. Apply means "append main images to the product gallery". The original is untouched. To reorder main images, open the product editor and click Set as main.
Draft gone?
Drafts are stored per product, and reopening the canvas restores them automatically. If the product has been archived, NomuDesign still opens and the draft is intact and editable.
