What kind of lighting can I ask for?

Almost anything you can describe: golden-hour sun, overcast daylight, a studio softbox, rim light, candlelight, neon, moonlight. Mention the direction and color for the best match.

Do I have to write a description?

Yes — relighting is prompt-driven, so it needs a description of the light you want. A specific sentence about source, direction, and mood works far better than a single word.

Will it keep my subject the same?

The app changes how light falls on the scene while keeping your subject recognizable. Very dramatic lighting changes can shift the overall feel of the image, which is usually the point.

Does it work on products as well as people?

Yes. Relighting is great for giving a plain product shot a premium studio look, as well as for portraits and scenes.

Is the first run free?

Yes — one free relight with no account. Create a free account for 200 starter credits to keep experimenting.
