The Create workstation is where you make things on APOB: optionally pick a portrait model, choose what kind of content you want (an image, a video, an edit), fill in the inputs, and hit Generate. Your results appear right below the workstation in a feed.
What is the workstation?
It's the control panel on the model's Create page. From here you pick a mode (like Generate Image, Image to Video, or Talking video), set up your prompt and options, and run a generation. Each finished result lands in the feed under the workstation so you can review, reuse, or remix it.
Where do I find it?
Open a model and go to its Create page. The workstation sits at the top of the page; your generations and other creators' inspiration appear underneath it. You can switch between your own Generation feed and the community Inspiration feed using the toggle below the bar.
What does the desktop layout look like?
On desktop the workstation is a single panel split into a few parts:
Mode rail (left): a vertical list grouped under Video and Image headers. Tapping an entry switches what you're making. See Mode switcher.
Mode panel (center): the inputs for whatever mode you picked — the prompt box, image/video uploaders, reference pickers, and so on. This changes completely depending on the mode.
Bottom action bar: the row of option controls (quality, resolution, duration, aspect ratio, quantity — whichever the mode supports) plus the live cost readout and the Generate button. See Generate & cost.
Generation feed: below the panel, where finished results show up.
There's also a full-screen button so you can expand the mode panel for more room while you work.
What does the mobile layout look like?
On mobile the workstation is a bar pinned to the bottom of the screen. Tapping it expands the workstation into a full-screen takeover: a slim tool bar at the top shows the current mode (tap it to open the Choose a tool sheet and switch), the mode inputs fill the middle, and the action bar with Generate sits at the bottom. Tap the close (×) to collapse it back to the bar. See Mode switcher for how mode picking and the expand/collapse work.
How do I run a generation? (the basic flow)
It's the same three steps in every mode:
Pick a mode from the rail (desktop) or the tool bar's Choose a tool sheet (mobile) — choose what you want to make.
Set your inputs — type a prompt and/or upload or select the image, video, or audio the mode needs, then tune the options in the action bar (quality, resolution, duration, etc.).
Press Generate. Your result starts cooking and appears in the feed. The button shows the credit cost before you click it.
Why can't I generate anything yet?
Choose a personal or community portrait model before entering the workstation. The No Model flow is currently kept out of the public entry points while generation quality is being tested. Generate still stays greyed out until the current mode's required prompt or media inputs are filled in — see Generate & cost for the full list of reasons.
What controls will I see in the action bar?
It depends on the mode. Common ones are Quality, Resolution, Duration, Aspect ratio, and Quantity. Not every mode has all of them, and some of them constrain each other (for example, certain durations or resolutions are only available at certain quality tiers). See:
How do I write the prompt?
Most modes have a prompt box where you describe what you want. You can also add prompt modifiers and @-mention saved Elements to drop people, products, or styles into the prompt. See Composer & prompt.
On mobile
The whole workstation is collapsed into a bottom bar by default to keep your feed visible. Tap the bar (or the small expand tab) to open the full-screen workstation, make your choices, and Generate; the workstation closes itself automatically once a generation successfully starts.
