Imagen 4 Fast

Imagen 4 Fast is the high-velocity version of Google's advanced Imagen 4 model, optimized for workflows where speed is critical. It leverages distillation or architectural efficiencies to provide near-instantaneous image generation without a significant compromise in quality. This makes it an essential tool for AI artists needing to iterate quickly, test numerous concepts, or power interactive applications.

Why use Imagen 4 Fast for 2D image?

High speed image generation with upgraded clarity

Imagen 4 Fast delivers rapid generation times while preserving clean structure and sharp detail. It is ideal for fast iteration cycles, UA testing, and LiveOps concepting where teams need results quickly without sacrificing readability.

Strong prompt control for reliable direction changes

The model interprets creative instructions with high accuracy, even when switching between different styles, lighting setups, or character directions. Imagen 4 Fast makes it easy to explore variations ( palette swaps, outfit changes, mood shifts ) at high speed.

Clean, balanced compositions suitable for UA creatives

Despite its performance focus, Imagen 4 Fast maintains stable framing, clear silhouettes, and high focal clarity. Assets read well at mobile sizes, making the model strong for quick UA experiments, ad thumbnails, and performance driven creative refreshes.

Rapid character and cosmetic ideation with strong structure

Quickly explore character poses, cosmetic ideas, and early art directions. Imagen 4 Fast keeps silhouettes clean and expressive, which helps teams evaluate concepts before moving to heavier models.

Fast UA creative exploration and thumbnail testing

Generate clear, high readability frames that work well for quick A B testing across networks. Imagen 4 Fast allows performance teams to test multiple creative angles and iterate quickly based on results.

Lightweight environment and item exploration for LiveOps

Draft environments, themed content, shop items, and event visuals in a rapid loop. The model is ideal for early stage direction setting ( seasonal themes, biome direction, event art ) before committing to final polish.

FAQ

How much does Imagen 4 Fast cost? Is it free?

Generating assets on Layer requires using Creative Units. This model's current price is 0.8 / generation.

How does Layer's pricing work?

There are no seat fees, feature gates, or plans on Layer. Instead, our platform uses a consumption based system with Creative Units (CUs) with a flexible monthly subscription. Every generation on Layer (image, video, 3D, or audio) consumes a Creative Unit, and you only pay for what you create.
