Generate and revise images as you experiment with a design.
Krea built its early product around seeing an image change while the creator works. It expanded the workflow with editing tools, so generation became one part of iterating on a visual rather than the end of the process.
Krea is useful when a designer wants to steer a visual as it changes. Ideogram puts more emphasis on text rendering and controlled layouts, which matters when the output needs to contain legible lettering.
