In short: Brand DNA → Photos → Upload. Protaigé tags each photo for you and uses them in your campaigns and sketches.

Your photos say more about your brand than any stock image. Once they are in Protaigé, every campaign, sketch and generated image can use them. You upload once. Protaigé does the sorting.

1

Upload your photos

Open Brand DNA, then Photos. Press Upload and choose your files. They appear in the grid straight away.

2

Choose who sees them

Photos has three tabs. Shared and Local decide who sees a photo. Style is covered below. Put photos in Shared when the whole brand should use them. Everyone on the brand sees these, and Protaigé draws on them when it creates images. Put photos in Local when they are only for your own work. Only you see these. You can move a photo between the two at any time from its three-dots menu.

3

Skip the tagging

You do not need to tag anything. When you upload a photo, Protaigé looks at it and describes it for you: what it shows, its mood, and what it is useful for. Click a photo to see this in its detail panel. Search and Filters use these tags, so the right photo is easy to find later. To change them, open the three-dots menu and choose Edit.

4

Find a photo fast

Press Filters to narrow the grid, or Sort to change the order. Each card shows where the photo came from: a campaign, a sketch, a film, or your own upload. The Origin filter hides any of these.

5

Make generated images look like yours

Protaigé can create new images that match your photography. To do that, it needs examples. Open the Style tab and mark up to eight photos as style references. To mark one, open a photo in the Shared tab, open the three-dots menu next to Download, and choose Set as style reference. Photos in Local cannot be references, so move them to Shared first.

6

Keep the style description current

Above your references is the style description. Protaigé writes it from your reference photos, and every generated image follows it. When you change your references, read it again. If it still describes the old photos, press Refresh. If you have edited the description yourself, Refresh replaces your edits, and asks you to confirm first.

Keep the style description current — Manage your photo library

If you mark no style references, generated images will not match your brand. Mark a few before you create anything.
