Choose an image model for the edit you need

An edit succeeds when the requested change happens and the parts you need remain consistent. Prepare a source image you can use, describe what should change and what should stay, then compare the full frame. Check the selected model's controls before assuming it supports masks or multiple references.

Product variations
Use the same product photo and change one attribute at a time. Check for unintended changes to logos, outlines and lettering.
Background revisions
Specify the new background and the subject that must stay. Inspect edges, contact shadows and reflections.
Creative corrections
Split corrections into observable changes. If a fixed region is essential, first verify that the mode accepts a mask.

Validate your shortlist

A sample test brief

Replace a mug photo's background with a pale worktop while preserving its lettering and handle. Compare both the changed and untouched areas.

  • Check supported reference formats, dimensions and counts on the selected model page.
  • Compare unchanged areas as carefully as the requested edit; identity and layout may drift.
  • Use material you have permission to submit and check model-specific usage terms.
