How do I generate images inside Claude?

Connect the Claude Imagine MCP server to Claude (a one-time setup that takes about three minutes). After that, just ask Claude for an image in plain English — 'draw a watercolor fox' — and Claude will call Claude Imagine to generate it, using your credit balance.

Which AI models can I use?

Claude Imagine currently supports nano banana, Flux, and GPT-Image, with more models added as they release. You can pick a model for each generation, or let Claude choose the best fit for your prompt.

Is Claude Imagine free?

You get 3 credits when you sign up—enough for 1 Nano Banana 2 image—with no credit card required. After that, subscribe for recurring credits and subscriber perks, or buy a one-time pack from $9.90 whose credits never expire.

Is this an official Anthropic product?

No. Claude Imagine is an independent tool that works alongside Claude. Claude is a trademark of Anthropic, PBC. We are not affiliated with, endorsed, or sponsored by Anthropic.

Can I use the images commercially?

Yes — images you generate are yours to use in personal and commercial projects, subject to the license terms of the underlying model provider.
