Imagen 3

Our highest quality text-to-image model

Download Now

We’ve significantly improved Imagen 3’s ability to understand prompts, which helps the models generate a wide range of visual styles and capture small details from longer prompts.

To be even more useful, Imagen 3 will be available in multiple versions, each optimized for different types of tasks, from generating quick sketches to high-resolution images.

Starting today, Imagen 3 is available for select creators as a private preview inside ImageFX, and you can sign up to join the waitlist. Imagen 3 is also coming soon to Vertex AI.

Imagen 3 is our highest quality text-to-image model, capable of generating images with even better detail, richer lighting and fewer distracting artifacts than our previous models.

Prompt: Shot in the style of DSLR camera with the polarizing filter. A photo of two hot air balloons floating over the unique rock formations in Cappadocia, Turkey. The colors and patterns on these balloons contrast beautifully against the earthy tones of the landscape below. This shot captures the sense of adventure that comes with enjoying such an experience.

Prompt: A close-up photo of an origami bird soaring through a cityscape, in a flock with others of different colors and patterns, casting intricate shadows on the buildings below.

Prompt: Three women stand together laughing, with one woman slightly out of focus in the foreground. The sun is setting behind the women, creating a lens flare and a warm glow that highlights their hair and creates a bokeh effect in the background. The photography style is candid and captures a genuine moment of connection and happiness between friends. The warm light of golden hour lends a nostalgic and intimate feel to the image.

Prompt: A weathered, wooden mech robot covered in flowering vines stands peacefully in a field of tall wildflowers, with a small bluebird resting on its outstretched hand. Digital cartoon, with warm colors and soft lines. A large cliff with a waterfall looms behind.

Prompt: Photographic portrait of a real life dragon resting peacefully in a zoo, curled up next to its pet sheep. Cinematic movie still, high quality DSLR photo.

Prompt: A view of a person’s hand holding a eucalyptus sprig - a macro DSLR image highlighting the balance of human and nature.

Prompt: A large, colorful bouquet of flowers in an old blue glass vase on the table. In front is one beautiful peony flower surrounded by various other blossoms like roses, lilies, daisies, orchids, fruits, berries, green leaves. The background is dark gray. Oil painting in the style of the Dutch Golden Age.

Prompt: Detailed illustration of majestic lion roaring proudly in a dream-like jungle, purple white line art background, clipart on light violet paper texture

Prompt: Claymation scene. A medium wide shot of an elderly woman. She is wearing flowing clothing. She is standing in a lush garden watering the plants with an orange watering can

Greater versatility and prompt understanding

We’ve designed Imagen 3 to generate high-quality images in a wide range of formats and styles, from photorealistic landscapes to richly textured oil paintings or whimsical claymation scenes.

Imagen 3 also understands prompts written in natural, everyday language, making it easier to get the output you want without complex prompt engineering.

To help Imagen 3 capture nuances like specific camera angles or compositions in long, complex prompts, we added richer detail to the caption of each image in its training data. Given better information to learn from, Imagen 3 more accurately generates a wide range of subjects and styles.

Prompt: Elephant amigurumi walking in savanna, a professional photograph, blurry background

Prompt: A view of a person's hand as they hold a little clay figurine of a bird in their hand and sculpt it with a modeling tool in their other hand. You can see the sculptor's scarf. Their hands are covered in clay dust. a macro DSLR image highlighting the texture and craftsmanship.

Prompt: White fluffy bear toy is sleeping in a children's room, on the floor of a baby bedroom with toy boxes and toys around, in the style of photorealistic 3D rendering.

Higher quality images

Imagen 3 generates visually rich, high-quality images, with good lighting and composition. It can accurately render small details like the fine wrinkles on a person’s hand, and complex textures like a knitted stuffed toy elephant.

Better text rendering

We’ve also significantly improved its text rendering capabilities, opening up new possibilities for use cases like stylized birthday cards, presentations and more.

Prompt: Word “light” made from various colorful feathers, black background

Prompt: A single comic book panel of a boy and his father on a grassy hill, staring at the sunset. A speech bubble points from the boy's mouth and says: The sun will rise again. Muted, late 1990s coloring style

Prompt: A photograph of a stately library entrance with the words "Central Library" carved into the stone

Built and deployed with our latest safety and responsibility innovations

Imagen 3 was built with our latest safety and responsibility innovations, from data and model development to production.

We used extensive filtering and data labeling to minimize harmful content in datasets and reduced the likelihood of harmful outputs. We also conducted red teaming and evaluations on topics including fairness, bias and content safety.

We’re deploying Imagen 3 with our latest privacy, safety and security technologies, including our innovative watermarking tool SynthID — which embeds a digital watermark directly into the pixels of the image, making it detectable for identification but imperceptible to the human eye.

Over the next months, we’ll make Imagen 2’s popular editing features, like inpainting and outpainting, available in Imagen 3. And we’ll be expanding Imagen 3’s availability across Google products, like the Gemini app and web experience, Workspace, Ads and more.
