How to replace text without the original design file

Upload the flattened image and enter the original wording plus the exact replacement. We’ll find matching locations automatically; choose the right match when the wording appears more than once.

AI locates the original text and tries to preserve the surrounding image. Compare the full result before downloading; an area selection helps identify the target but does not guarantee unchanged pixels.

Why edit the text in place?

01

Optionally specify an area

Use a selection only when automatic matching cannot identify a reliable text location.

02

Review before generation

Your image, matched location, and wording remain editable before submission.

03

Compare the result

Switch between Original, Compare, and Edited views.

Frequently asked questions — how to edit text in image.

How does the editor preserve the original font and layout?

The editor analyzes the visible typography, color, texture, lighting and perspective, then renders the replacement in context. Always compare the result before publishing.

Which image formats are supported?

Upload PNG, JPEG or WebP files up to 10 MB.

How many credits do I get at sign-up?

New accounts receive 6 sign-up credits once account verification is complete. These credits are valid for 30 days and are separate from the daily allowance.

Do I get free credits every day?

Yes. You can receive 6 free credits each day, in addition to your sign-up credits. The daily allowance is added when you use it after browser verification.

When do daily credits reset?

At 00:00 UTC. The navbar and editor show a reset countdown. Unused daily credits expire at the reset and do not accumulate. Separately purchased credits never expire.

How many credits does an edit cost?

One standard 1K edit costs 6 credits. This means the daily allowance covers one 1K edit. The exact credit cost is shown before submission.

Why is browser verification needed?

A quick browser check protects the daily free allowance. It starts when you choose to use free credits and may ask you to complete a challenge. Your image and edits stay in place if you cancel or retry.

What happens if an edit fails?

Eligible failed edits return the deducted credits with their original expiry. Daily credits refunded after their UTC reset stay expired. Purchased credits keep their validity.

Can I use the result commercially?

Yes, provided you own the source image or have permission to edit and use it.
