Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Äng answered.
- What is Äng?
- Äng is an AI creative workspace for visual exploration. It combines an infinite canvas with AI image generation and editing tools, so you can create moodboards, generate images, organize references, compare variations, and iterate — all without leaving a single workspace.
- Who is Äng for?
- Anyone who thinks visually and wants to move faster through the creative process. Common users include designers, product managers, developers, founders, architects, and hobbyists who work with visual ideas. Äng is especially useful when you need to explore many directions quickly — visual briefs, style explorations, concept iterations, or reference curation.
- How does AI image generation work in Äng?
- Äng uses Google Gemini for AI image generation and editing. You can generate images from text prompts, edit existing images with natural language, inpaint specific areas, extend images outward, transfer style from a reference, or combine multiple images. AI actions adapt to what you have selected on the canvas.
- Is Äng free?
- Yes — Äng is free during the beta period. The core image generation, editing, and canvas tools are available to every account, and granted beta members get the full workspace at no cost. A few compute-heavier features — video, 3D, image merge, thumbnail sheets, batch variations, and 4K — are part of full beta access. We plan to introduce paid plans after beta, but we will give users plenty of notice and beta participants will receive favorable terms.
- How do I get access?
- Beta access is currently invite-based. You can request access on the beta page. We review requests and approve them in batches. Once approved, you will receive an invite via email.
- What is an "infinite canvas"?
- An infinite canvas is a spatial workspace with no fixed edges. You can pan and zoom freely, placing images, text notes, and generated content anywhere. Nothing is constrained to a fixed page size or grid. This lets you spread out a large reference collection, keep different concepts in separate areas, and visually group related ideas.
- Does Äng use my images or prompts to train AI models?
- No. Your boards, images, and prompts are never used to train AI models or for advertising. They are stored solely to provide you with the service.
- Where is my data stored?
- Board state and metadata are stored in Supabase (EU regions available). Assets such as images are stored in Supabase Storage. We process errors via Sentry (EU – Frankfurt). See the privacy policy for the full list of third-party processors.
- Does Äng work offline?
- The canvas and your existing boards load from local storage where possible, but AI generation and cloud sync require an internet connection.
- What browsers does Äng support?
- Äng runs in modern evergreen browsers — Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Safari. A desktop browser is recommended for the best canvas experience. Mobile support is limited.
- How do I report a bug or give feedback?
- Use the feedback button inside the app to submit a bug report or suggestion. You can choose whether to include a screenshot, and all text in any screenshot is masked for privacy.
- How does billing work after beta ends?
- We will communicate pricing before it takes effect. Beta users will not be charged without explicit opt-in. When paid plans launch we will outline the options and give users time to decide.
