Hylope keeps generation, organization, and review in one workspace. The interface has two persistent layers: apps determine what kind of work you are doing, while workspace, project, and shot selectors determine where that work belongs.
The global workspace
The top of Hylope stays familiar as you move between apps. Use it to change tools without losing the project context around your work.
App navigation
The app navigation moves between the main stages of a creative workflow:
| App | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Gallery | Browse, compare, organize, and review generated assets. |
| Create | Generate and edit images, video, music, and voice. |
| Snippets | Save reusable prompt text, visual references, and templates. |
| Nodes | Build repeatable, multi-step generation workflows. |
| Canvas | Arrange media and notes on an open visual board. |
| Compose | Build layered compositions and manage their versions. |
| Share | Prepare folders for review and publish client-facing links. |
Workspace context
The selectors and account controls around the app navigation define your current scope:
- Workspace separates personal and team work.
- Project groups assets around a campaign, brief, or production.
- Shot narrows a project to a specific scene or deliverable when shots are available.
- Credits and queue status show available usage and work currently processing.
- Account controls provide access to billing, preferences, and support.
Inside Create
Create is the default generation workspace. Read it from left to right, then use the bottom strip to return to recent work.
1. Inputs
The left panel holds the source media and references required by the active mode. Image Edit expects an image; Video can expose start or end frames; other modes provide their own named slots. Drag media into a slot or select an existing asset from Hylope.
2. Working area
The center shows the active mode and the material you are working with. Depending on the mode, this can be a generation history, an input/output comparison, a contact sheet, or another task-specific preview.
3. Settings and prompt
The right panel selects the provider and model, then exposes only the controls supported by that combination. The prompt bar stays close to the working area and includes output settings, batch size, optional snippets or templates, the credit estimate, and the Generate action.
4. Recent work
The strip along the bottom provides fast access to recent generations and references. Completed results also appear in Gallery, where you have more room to filter, compare, organize, and review them.
Lightbox
Select an asset wherever it appears to open the Lightbox. This is the shared inspection surface across Hylope, with:
- A large preview and navigation between nearby assets.
- Generation metadata such as prompt, model, settings, seed, and cost.
- Versions, lineage, and comparison tools.
- Actions for reusing, editing, downloading, or organizing the asset.
- Linked snippets, templates, and key assets when available.
