Rivya Chat Studio Guide

Use this guide when a Rivya task needs planning, prompt shaping, image-assisted analysis, or a saved conversation before direct generation.

Chat Studio is the signed-in workspace for thinking, shaping, and continuing work before the project moves into Image, Video, Audio, or tool-based execution.

What Chat Studio Is For

Chat Studio is useful for:

• plain text questions

• image-assisted analysis

• prompt shaping

• creative planning

• workflow routing

• reviewing generated ideas

• preparing briefs for image, video, or audio work

It is not necessarily the final generation surface. Often, Chat Studio helps you decide what should happen next.

When To Use Chat Before Generation

Use chat first when:

• the task is still vague

• you need a prompt draft

• you need to compare possible workflows

• you want to break a campaign into assets

• you need to understand an uploaded image

• you are not sure which Studio or model to use

Direct generation is better once the task, subject, constraints, and output type are clear.

Image-Assisted Analysis

Chat can help reason about images when the task is analysis, planning, or prompt preparation.

Use it to:

• describe an uploaded visual

• identify what matters in a reference image

• turn an image into a prompt brief

• plan follow-up image or video work

If the goal is to generate or iterate a final image, move into Image Studio in Rivya.

Prompt Shaping And Handoffs

Chat is often useful before entering a specialized Studio.

A practical handoff looks like this:

1. explain the real task in chat

2. ask for a tighter prompt or brief

3. decide whether the output is image, video, audio, or tool-based

4. move to the right workflow

5. return to chat when you need planning or rewriting again

Saved Sessions

Saved sessions help when a task takes more than one turn.

Use saved chat when you need to preserve:

• the original goal

• decisions made during planning

• prompt drafts

• content angles

• notes for later generation

Chat history is part of the workflow, not just a record of old messages.

Limits And Expectations

Chat is flexible, but it is not a substitute for reviewing final outputs.

Be careful with:

• facts that need current verification

• commercial or legal claims

• instructions that should be tested in a generation workflow

• content that requires brand or client approval

• prompts that become too broad to execute

Use specialized Studios when the task becomes concrete.

Chat-To-Studio Handoff Checklist

Before moving from Chat Studio into a generation workflow, check:

• Confirm the real output type: image, video, audio, chat continuation, or tool result.

• Turn the chat answer into a narrow prompt or brief.

• Decide which facts, constraints, references, or tone must stay unchanged.

• Check whether the next workflow needs uploads, credits, or a specific model.

• Save the useful chat context before switching surfaces.

The goal is to make chat planning usable in the next Studio, not to restart the project from memory.

When To Recheck The Handoff

Recheck the handoff when the output type, reference needs, review standard, or model family changes.

In those cases, preserve the useful chat context first, then prepare the new input deliberately.
