What it shares with Higgsfield
Higgsfield and StarGen both run partner models, and many of them are the same: Kling, Veo, Seedance and Hailuo for video, Nano Banana Pro, Seedream, GPT Image, Recraft and FLUX for images, Topaz for upscaling. The full list of what we carry is further down this page.
If you are used to these models on Higgsfield, your prompts work the same way here. Text in quotes, such as a sign or a line of dialogue, reaches the model exactly as written.
How StarGen is different
Everything happens in Telegram. No account to create, no tab to keep open, no file to download: photos already in your chats go straight into a generation, and the finished video comes back to the same conversation.
You pay with Telegram Stars, not a dollar subscription. One credit is one Star, and credits buy any model: a tier gives you a monthly allowance and priority, but it never locks a model. One-off packs are there too, and they do not expire.
When Higgsfield is the better choice
Higgsfield has models of its own that exist nowhere else: Soul for photoreal images, Soul Cinema and DOP for video with camera control. If you want that particular look, we have no equivalent.
Higgsfield also has a large web editor: Cinema Studio, editing, video upscaling, character tools. For long projects at a desk that beats a chat. StarGen is stronger where speed, the phone and Telegram matter.
How to switch
There is nothing to migrate. Open the bot, pick the model you were using and paste your prompt. The free weekly Star allowance covers the first tries, so you can compare results before paying anything.
Models
Models on StarGen
The cheapest run of each model. Tap a card for the details.
Kling 3 Pro
Kling 3 Pro writes the sound along with the clip: footsteps, room tone, atmosphere. It starts from a photo and gives the cleanest motion in the Kling line.
from 67 Stars
Veo 3.1
Google's video model for motion and sound. Describe a scene or start from a photo, then choose length, resolution, and audio.
from 101 Stars
Seedance 2.0
ByteDance's flagship: it holds a character and a scene from shot to shot instead of rebuilding them every second. It comes in 720p, 1080p, and an edit pass over video you already have.
from 36 Stars
Hailuo 2.3
The same Hailuo, but it starts from text: describe the scene and get six seconds. It keeps the physics honest, so people and objects move the way you expect.
from 36 Stars
Nano Banana Pro
The bigger Nano Banana: 2K output, clean text inside the frame, and edits that keep the detail. It works from a photo or from a prompt alone.
from 20 Stars
Seedream 5 Pro
ByteDance's photo editing: it swaps clothes, backgrounds and style without redrawing the person. It will not start without a photo, text alone is not enough.
from 10 Stars
GPT Image 2
OpenAI's image model reads a long prompt closely and keeps things where you asked for them. Good when the frame needs legible text or a scene built exactly to description.
from 2 Stars
Recraft V4.1
Recraft for design work: clean graphics, careful typography, a result you can predict.
from 6 Stars
FLUX.2
Black Forest Labs' current line, in three rungs. It bills by megapixel, so the frame here is pinned at exactly one.
from 5 Stars
Topaz Upscale
It enlarges an image four times and pulls detail back out instead of stretching pixels. For old photos and small screenshots you need to print or show large.
from 38 Stars
FAQ
Common questions
Is StarGen the official Higgsfield?
No. StarGen is a separate service with no connection to Higgsfield. What we share is that many of the partner models are the same.
Does StarGen have Soul?
No. Soul, Soul Cinema and DOP are Higgsfield's own models and only they have them. For photoreal images we carry Nano Banana Pro, Seedream and GPT Image.
How do I pay?
With Telegram Stars, bought inside Telegram. One StarGen credit is one Star, and the price of every generation is on the button before you start.
Do I need a subscription?
No. You can take a tier with a monthly credit allowance or a one-off pack that never expires. Every model is available either way.
Can I try it for free?
Yes. A free Star allowance arrives every week and no card is needed. It covers a few images or a clip on an inexpensive model.
Can I write prompts in another language?
Yes. The bot translates the prompt for the model automatically and passes quoted text such as signs and dialogue through unchanged.
