Beyond charts, Chief can generate images from your content — a conceptual illustration for a blog post, a metaphorical image for a slide, or a photorealistic scene. Ask for an image in any task, or use the same Visualize action as charts.
⚠️ Important: Image generation is a beta feature and is more prone to errors like misspellings and misrendered numbers. Make sure to double-check anything inside a generated image before you use it.

Generate an image

Chief images - a generated conceptual illustration in the result panel
You can describe the image you want directly in a task. To generate one from existing content with Visualize:
  1. Open the Visualize window from your content. For a finished answer, hover over it, click the bolt icon, and choose Visualize from Do more with this answer. You can also select a File in your Library and click Visualize. (In Advanced Mode, highlighting text and choosing Visualize from the Do more with this text menu works too.)
  2. In the Visualize window, choose select the visuals yourself.
  3. Pick an image option from a group such as Images & Scenes — for example Photorealistic Scene, Metaphorical Image, or Conceptual Illustration.
  4. Click Go.
Chief generates the image and lists it under Created Files in the answer. Click it to open it in a panel, where you can view it full-size, download it, or keep it in your Project.

What you can make

Chief images - image option groups in the Visualize picker
When you choose select the visuals yourself, the image options are grouped by purpose:
  • Images & Scenes — Photorealistic Scene, Metaphorical Image, Conceptual Illustration.
  • Content & Media — Blog Post Hero Image, Social Media Post Image, Comic Strip.
  • Design & Product — Product Mockup, Logo/Icon, Architectural Visualization.
  • Artistic — Character Portrait, Abstract Art.
The same window also has data options (Charts & Data Visualizations) and Process & Flow Visualizations — see the article on generating charts for those.
💡 Tip: Not sure which style fits? Choose Surprise me in the Visualize window and let Chief pick — use the count dropdown to set how many visuals it generates.

FAQ

This is a known limitation of the beta. Generated images can misspell text and misrender numbers. Treat any text inside an image as a draft and verify it against your source before sharing.
Yes. In the same task, ask Chief to revise an image it generated earlier. You can also attach up to 14 PNG, JPEG, or WebP images, each no larger than 7 MB, and ask Chief to use them as references for a new image. For text-heavy content, a chart or document is often more reliable than a generated image.
Each one is created as a File, listed under Created Files in the answer. Open it to view it in a panel, download it, or keep it in your Project Library to reuse.
