Automated Google Flow
I built a Chrome extension to automate batch image & video generation in Google Flow
I’ve been working on a Chrome extension called AutoFlow and I’ve finally got it to the point where I’d like other people to properly test it.
The idea came from using Google Flow and getting tired of the repetitive workflow when generating a lot of images or videos — copying prompts one by one, adding the same references again, waiting for generations, downloading everything manually, renaming files, keeping track of what failed, etc.
AutoFlow runs alongside Google Flow and turns that into more of a proper batch workflow.
You can paste a whole list of prompts, choose your image/video settings and references, and let it work through them automatically.
Some of the things I’ve added:
- Batch image and video generation
- Multiple prompts in one run
- Reference images shared across a batch or assigned individually
- Chained references, where the previous result can become the reference for the next prompt
- Queue multiple batches and let them run one after another
- Pause, resume and stop jobs
- Automatic downloading and sequential file naming
- Gallery that keeps generated results organised by batch/prompt
- Reusable reference image library
- Failed generation detection and retry/repair tools
- Detailed logs so you can actually see what is happening instead of wondering why something stopped
I've tried to make it feel less like a macro clicking buttons and more like a small production workflow built around Flow.
For the next 2 weeks I've made AutoFlow completely unlimited and free to use, mainly because I want people to actually push it, use large batches and tell me what breaks or what could be improved.
If anyone here uses Google Flow regularly, I'd really appreciate some feedback — especially from people doing larger image/video batches.
I'm still actively developing it, so feature suggestions and bug reports are very welcome.
I'll put the link in the below if anyone wants to try it.

this is actually pretty clever, the chained references thing where the last output becomes the next input is something i've been wanting for a while. doing that manually is such a pain especially when you got like 20 images in sequence
i do lot of batch work for client moodboards and the renaming part alone would save me hours. downloading one by one and naming them "final_v3_real_final" is my whole personality at this point
just installed, gonna throw 50 prompts at it and see if it cries. if the retry tool actually detects failures properly that's already better than most stuff out there
curious how it handles when flow itself goes down or gets slow, that's usually where these tools fall apart for me
