ClonePrompt: Transform Any Image Into an AI Prompt

Have you ever seen an AI-generated image and wondered: "How do I create something like that?" The challenge of reverse-engineering a visual into words is one of the most common frustrations in the AI art community. That's exactly the problem ClonePrompt was built to solve.

The Problem with Prompt Engineering

Writing effective prompts is an art in itself. You need to describe:

• Composition — How elements are arranged in the frame
• Lighting — The quality, direction, and mood of light
• Style — Artistic influences, medium, and aesthetic
• Technical details — Camera settings, aspect ratio, rendering quality

Getting all of these right, especially when trying to recreate a specific look, can be incredibly time-consuming.

The gap between what we see and what we can describe is where creativity gets lost.

How ClonePrompt Works

ClonePrompt takes a simple three-step approach:

1. Upload Your Image

Drag and drop any image (JPG, PNG, or WebP up to 10MB) into the interface. This could be:

• An AI-generated image you want to recreate
• A photograph whose style you want to capture
• Artwork that inspires you

2. AI Analysis

The tool uses Google Gemini to perform a comprehensive visual analysis. It examines every aspect of the image: subject matter, artistic style, color palette, lighting conditions, composition, mood, and technical qualities.

3. Get Your Prompt

Within seconds, you receive a detailed, optimized prompt ready to use with your favorite AI image generator.

A Practical Example

Take the cover image of this post — a glamorous fashion photo with a model in sequins against a black Christmas tree. Upload it to ClonePrompt and you get a structured JSON breakdown like this:

1{

Why I Built This

As someone who spends a lot of time experimenting with AI image generation, I found myself constantly struggling with the prompt-writing process. The mental translation from "I like how this looks" to "here are the 15 specific details that make it look that way" was a bottleneck in my creative workflow.

ClonePrompt is my attempt to lower that barrier. Whether you're a seasoned AI artist looking to speed up your workflow or a beginner trying to understand what makes certain prompts work, this tool is designed to help.
