Getting consistent visual style out of AI image generators has always been a grind. You nail a look once, then spend the next hour trying to recreate it with prompt tweaks, model swaps, and style modifiers -- only to end up somewhere completely different. Krea 2, the platform's first in-house foundation model, was built specifically to solve this. And with the new Moodboard Gallery, that system just got a lot more accessible.

A gallery full of aesthetic starting points

Krea has added thousands of new moodboards to its gallery for users to explore and generate with Krea 2, and is also previewing two new modes -- Random and Auto -- that select moodboards automatically for your generations. The gallery itself also recently got a facelift: it now features a fresh feed experience, letting you browse community creations in a smoother, faster layout designed to help you discover inspiration and remix what catches your eye.

The practical upshot is that you no longer need to build a moodboard from scratch to get started. You can browse the gallery, find an aesthetic that resonates, and start generating immediately -- or let Random and Auto modes surprise you.

What moodboards actually do under the hood

Moodboards are a different animal from style references. Two big differences: you can pile in as many images as you want (style references cap at four), and there's a more complex system underneath. Moodboards sometimes use style references behind the scenes, but they also run custom LLMs and clustering methods to read everything about the images you upload -- not just style. Concepts, expressions, characters, the overall vibe -- it all gets factored in.

The output of that analysis is a structured profile with three components:

• Taste profile -- a high-level description of what the system found in your board.
• Keywords -- style tags that get applied under the hood every time you generate with this board.
• Avoids -- things the system will actively steer away from.

You analyze once per board. After that, the taste profile, keywords, and avoids are saved and reused every time you generate with it. This is the key difference from session-based style references -- the board becomes a persistent creative asset.
