Lineage Tracking

Every AI image has a story. Numonic automatically maps evolution chains—from initial generation through upscales, variations, and remixes—so you never lose track of how your creative work evolved.

  • Automatic Detection
  • Parent-Child Mapping
  • Parameter Diff
  • Visual Timeline

How It Works

When you import AI-generated images, Numonic reads embedded metadata to reconstruct the full creative journey. No manual linking required.

1

Import

Upload or sync your AI-generated images from any source.

2

Detect

Numonic reads Job IDs and parent references from embedded metadata.

3

Connect

Parent-child relationships are mapped automatically into evolution chains.

Evolution Chain Features

Automatic chain detection

Numonic reads embedded Job IDs and parent references to build the full evolution tree—no manual tagging required.

Parameter diff view

See exactly what changed between generations: prompt edits, style reference swaps, parameter tweaks, and model version changes.

Visual timeline

Browse your creative decisions as a visual chain. Switch between grouped (tree) and flat (chronological) views.

Creative session browser

Assets are grouped by time window, so you can revisit what you were working on during any creative session.

Tracked Generation Types

Numonic recognises and categorises these generation types within evolution chains:

Initial Grid

The original 2x2 or 1x1 generation from your prompt

Upscale

Higher-resolution version of a selected grid image

Variation

A new generation inspired by an existing image

Pan / Zoom Out

Extended canvas from an existing generation

Remix

Re-generation with modified prompt or parameters

Inpaint / Region

Localised edits to a specific area of the image

Find Assets by Lineage

Use search grammar to query assets by their position in evolution chains:

chain:>1

Find all assets that are part of an evolution chain (have at least one related generation).

job_type:upscale tool:midjourney

Find all Midjourney upscales across your library.

job_type:variation prompt:"fantasy landscape"

Find variations of fantasy landscape generations.
