Visual work on autopilot: your own studio connected to your assistant
You already make your visuals in a studio of your own, with your own models and your own style. Connect it to GENI and the repetitive part happens without you being there.

Making the image was never the hard part
Anyone who needs visuals regularly rarely gets stuck on how to make something good. The tools got good enough for that. The friction is in the repetition: the same kind of banner every Monday, the same style for every campaign, the same layout for every product launch with different content in it.
That work is not difficult. It is just never finished, and it always lands at the moment you are busy with something else.
What has been added
dGENIX now connects to dGEN Visual Studio, the image studio where you work with your own models and build flows on a canvas. Once connected, GENI can do work there that you would otherwise click through yourself.
The distinction that matters: this is not another image generator. dGENIX already had two. The difference is the word your.
| Our own image skills | dGEN Visual Studio | |
|---|---|---|
| Where the work happens | On our models | In your studio account |
| Which style | Whatever you put in the prompt | Your models and your own style models |
| Where it ends up | In the chat | In your library, next to your other work |
| What it can do | Make a single image | Also run a flow you built yourself |
| Who pays | Your dGENIX credits | Your studio credits |
That last row deserves its own paragraph. The generation is billed in the studio, against your balance there. dGENIX only charges the action. So you are not paying twice for the same image, and the studio amount is exactly what it would have cost if you had pressed Run there yourself.
The flow is the point, not the one-off prompt
Asking for a single image was already possible. What is new here is that GENI can run a flow: the piece you assembled on the canvas, with your model, your settings and your style already in place.
That inverts the relationship. With a one-off prompt you describe what you want every single time, and every single time something slightly different comes out. With a flow you made those choices once, and the only variable is what you feed into it.
What it looks like in practice:
You: run my weekly banner flow
GENI: you have three flows ready. I will run Weekly banner, four steps. This costs credits in your studio, not on your dGENIX balance. Shall I go ahead?
Anything that costs money asks for your approval first, with the amount shown. That is stricter here than for most skills, and deliberately so: the bill lands on a different balance than the one you look at inside dGENIX.
And then the step that actually saves you time
Put that same instruction into a scheduled task and the repetition leaves your week. Every Monday at eight the flow runs, and the result is in your library before you open your laptop.
That is what this becomes: not "AI makes a picture", but a part of your production that simply keeps running. The same move as reusing content, where the bottleneck was never creativity but repetition.
What GENI may and may not do in your studio
When you connect, you get a consent screen listing the permissions requested. That is not a formality; read it.
- Yes: view your flows and the model catalogue, run a flow, search your library, create images and video, read your balance
- No: change your flows, delete anything from your library, buy credits
So the canvas stays your work. GENI reads and runs what you made, and nothing more. That is a choice rather than a temporary limitation: an assistant that can rewrite your saved work is an assistant you have to check on every Monday morning.
You can disconnect at any time, either here or in the studio itself. That is also where a daily spending ceiling per connection lives, so nothing can ever spend more than you allowed.
Who this actually helps
Not everyone. If you need the occasional picture, a regular image skill is faster, and you do not need a second account for it.
This exists for the case where you built up a visual style of your own and do not want to trade it for "something that also looks fine". A shop with a fixed product look. An agency running three styles for three clients. Someone who took the trouble to train their own style model and does not want to explain it to a chat window every time.
For that situation the arithmetic is simple. The work happens in the same place as always, on the same models, and the only thing that changes is who presses the button.
Getting started
- Make sure you have a dGEN Visual Studio account and build at least one flow you use regularly
- In dGENIX, go to Dashboard, Connectors and connect dGEN Visual Studio
- Ask GENI to read something first: which flows are ready, how many credits are left
- Run that flow once through the chat, so you see what comes out
- Only then put it into a scheduled task
People like to skip that third step. Do it anyway: a read-only request confirms the connection works without anything being charged.
The connector is available from Growth upwards and sits alongside the others in the overview. What else the platform does with images and reuse lives in the AI Content Engine.
