FAQ

Is AI background generator free to use?

Yes, it’s free with daily credits available to all users.
The number of credits used may vary depending on the style you select. If you’re a frequent user, the Pro plan gives you more daily credits for even greater flexibility.

What types of background styles can AI generate?

MiriCanvas AI supports a wide range of styles, including geometric and nature-based patterns, abstract artwork and retro-style graphics, watercolor and paint textures, gradients and light leak effects, and frame-style and decorative borders.
You can also generate backgrounds in various moods—such as minimal, vintage, modern, or classic—by describing the color, texture, and tone in your prompt.

How do I write a good prompt for background generation?

Be as specific and descriptive as possible. Instead of saying “blue background,” try something like “navy blue minimal geometric pattern.”
Include details about the color, mood, and use case—for example, “Clean gray gradient for presentations,” “Vintage brown paper texture for a café menu.”
This helps the AI generate more accurate and relevant results.

What’s the difference between AI-generated and stock backgrounds?

AI-generated backgrounds are one-of-a-kind and tailored to your needs. They’re less likely to be used by others, completely copyright-free, and endlessly customizable through prompt edits. Stock backgrounds, on the other hand, are ready-made and quality-tested. Both have their strengths—use them according to your project’s needs.
