AI Image to Image Editor
Upload any photo and transform it with AI. Restyle a portrait, swap a background, change the season, or rewrite the entire scene. Four AI models specialized for different kinds of edits — instruction-based for precise changes, diffusion-based for full rewrites. New accounts get 100 free credits, no card required.

What You Can Do with Image to Image
Six common edit categories. Each model in our lineup is stronger at some categories than others — pick based on what you're trying to accomplish.
Instruction-based edits
Tell the AI what to change: 'replace the denim jacket with a pink dress', 'make the season winter', 'add neon lighting'. Nano Banana 2 is built for this — it preserves the original subject's identity while making targeted changes.
Style transfer
Turn a photo into a watercolor painting, anime drawing, oil portrait, or 3D render. Higher strength values give bolder style changes; lower values keep the original closer. Works on every model — Z-Image Turbo is fastest, GPT Image 2 is highest quality.
Background swap
Drop your subject into a different environment — beach, studio, mountains, cyberpunk city. Nano Banana 2 is best for keeping the subject identical; Z-Image Turbo (strength 0.85+) for atmospheric rewrites.
Restoration & restyling
Modernize old photos, enhance details, change color grading, or generate alternative versions of a finished design. Use Nano Banana 2 with low strength for subtle improvements, Seedream 4.5 for photorealistic refinement.
Multi-image composition
Seedream 4.5 accepts up to 10 reference images — useful for style blending (combine the lighting from one photo with the subject of another) and reference-driven generation.
Identity preservation
Generate variations of the same person, character, or product without losing their distinct look. Nano Banana 2 is the strongest at this — same face, same outfit, same room, just different pose / scene / lighting.
Examples
See What's Possible
Example outputs from real image-to-image generations. Each card shows the kind of result you can expect — the source images are user-uploaded photos transformed by the model.
Photo → Watercolor
Transform this portrait into a soft watercolor painting with warm afternoon tones
Outfit swap (Nano Banana 2)
Change the denim jacket to a cream-colored knit sweater, keep everything else identical
Background change
Replace the studio background with a sun-drenched Mediterranean street, soft afternoon light
Add a person to the scene
Add a person sitting on the bench in the foreground, reading a book, natural lighting matching the scene
Season change
Change this summer landscape to deep winter — snow-covered ground, bare trees, soft overcast light
Photo → Anime
Transform this photo into anime key visual style, soft cel-shading, vibrant colors
Which Model for Which Edit Task
Each model approaches image-to-image differently. Pick based on what you're trying to do — not just which model has the most hype.
'Change just this one thing' → Nano Banana 2
Instruction-following model. Tell it 'replace X with Y' or 'add Z' in plain English and it will execute that specific change while leaving everything else untouched. Best identity preservation in the lineup. Default model for image-to-image on this site.
Learn more →'Reimagine the whole scene' → Z-Image Turbo
Diffusion-based, very fast. With strength 0.7+, rewrites the scene substantially while keeping the rough composition. Best for style transfer, atmospheric changes, and bulk experimentation. NOT for surgical edits — use Nano Banana 2 for those.
Learn more →'Professional final output' → GPT Image 2
Highest quality across the lineup. Slowest and most expensive. Best for final deliverables when the result needs to be polished — campaign images, hero shots, marketing assets. Three quality tiers let you balance cost vs. polish.
Learn more →'Photorealistic restyling' → Seedream 4.5
Photoreal output with strong subject consistency. Great for portrait editing, lifestyle product shots, and food photography refinement. Accepts up to 10 reference images for style blending. Balanced cost between Z-Image Turbo and GPT Image 2.

Five habits that consistently improve image-to-image output. These come from real testing across all four models.
1. Match the model to your goal
Don't use Z-Image Turbo for 'change the jacket color while keeping everything else'. That's Nano Banana 2's job. Z-Image Turbo will rewrite the whole scene because it's a diffusion model, not an instruction model. Pick the right tool — see the section above.
2. Describe the target, not the change (for diffusion models)
For Z-Image Turbo and Seedream 4.5, write the prompt as if you're describing the FINAL image you want, not the edit you want to apply. 'a woman in a pink dress driving a car' beats 'change the jacket to a pink dress'. For Nano Banana 2, instruction-style is fine.
3. Use the right strength (Z-Image Turbo)
0.3 = barely visible change, only color/light tweaks. 0.6 = moderate edit, composition preserved. 0.7 (default) = clear rewrite with composition kept. 0.85+ = aggressive rewrite, may replace subjects. Start at 0.7 and adjust based on whether you want more or less change.
4. Lock the seed when iterating
Once you're close to the result you want, lock the seed (Advanced Settings) and only tweak the prompt. This gives you reproducible variations — change one word, see exactly what that word does. Random seeds are for exploration; locked seeds are for refinement.
5. Use high-quality source images
The model works with what you give it. Blurry, low-resolution, or heavily compressed source images limit how good the output can be. Upload the highest quality version of your photo (under 10MB). PNG/JPEG/WebP all work.
