FAQ

Common questions about Phota

What is Phota?

Phota is a personalized AI photo generation model by PhotaLabs, founded by former Adobe AI researchers. It separates identity from scene, allowing you to generate, edit, and enhance photos that faithfully preserve who you are across any style, setting, or composition.

How does the profile training work?

Upload 30-50 photos of a person via the Create Profile endpoint ($2.90/training). Phota trains a Subject Token that captures facial features, expressions, and angles. Reference this profile in any generation or editing prompt using the profile ID to maintain consistent identity.

Do I need a profile to use Phota?

No. Text-to-image, editing, and enhancement all work without a profile. The profile is optional for when you want identity-consistent results across multiple generations.

What resolutions are supported?

Phota generates at 1K (standard) and 4K resolution. Multiple aspect ratios are supported including 1:1, 16:9, 4:3, 3:4, and 9:16. Output formats include JPEG, PNG, and WebP.

How much does Phota cost on fal.ai?

Text-to-image and editing: $0.09/image at 1K, $0.18/image at 4K. Enhancement: $0.13/image. Profile training: $2.90 per training run. Pay-per-use with no minimums or subscriptions.

How do I get started with the API?

Install the fal.ai SDK (Python or JavaScript), grab an API key from your dashboard, and make your first request in a few lines of code. The API is serverless, so no GPUs to manage. Check the API documentation for all available parameters.

Can I use Phota for commercial projects?

Yes. Images generated through the fal.ai API can be used in commercial projects. Check fal.ai's terms of service for full details on usage rights and licensing.
