Image to image generator for designers, sellers and creators
Image to image AI generates a new picture from a reference image and a text prompt. Use it to restyle a room, change a product setting or explore a new illustration while referring to an existing composition. The whole result is generated again, so use inpainting when only one selected area should change.
Designers and marketers
Make several versions of one visual from a single reference.
- Try new colors, styles and layouts
- Keep the subject recognizable
- Compare versions side by side
Online sellers
Place one product photo into new scenes.
- Lifestyle scenes from a plain product shot
- Seasonal backgrounds for the same item
- Furnish an empty room photo
Creators
Redraw your own photos and sketches in a new look.
- Sketch to image as a realistic render
- Photo to a flat vector illustration
- Change the season in a photo
What image to image AI keeps and changes
Your picture sets the subject and your prompt sets the change.
- Subject, shapes, colors and layout carry over from the reference.
- The prompt decides the style, setting or season.
- The whole image is drawn again, so small details can shift.
- Several references can be mixed in one image.
- Use AI inpainting to change one area and keep the rest.
- Use the object remover to take something out.
Image to image prompts that work
Name what stays, then describe the change. Short, concrete prompts give more predictable results than long lists of adjectives.
- "The same bottle on a marble bathroom counter, morning light"
- "This living room at night with warm lamps switched on"
- "Turn this photo into a flat vector illustration"
- "The same person in a navy suit, studio background"
- "This sketch as a clean 3D render, soft pastels"
Reference image AI tips and limits
Short, concrete prompts give more predictable results.
- Mention a specific reference with @ when you add several.
- Pick a model that accepts as many references as you add.
- The examples on this page were made with Seedream 4.5.
- Credits per image change with the model and resolution.
- Expect small details to differ from the source.
- Models marked with a lock need a higher plan.
