Strict font, lighting, and perspective matching

3D signage, curved packaging, or conference badges and event ticket mockups requiring seamless blending with ambient shadows.

When Not To Use

Transparent guidance to save your time

Designing a graphic from a blank canvas

This image text editor is built specifically to edit text in an image that already exists. For blank canvas design, tools like Canva or Figma are better.

Extremely tiny or heavily pixelated text (< 15px)

Letters only a few pixels tall lack character cues. Always upload the highest resolution version available.

Multi-page PDFs or thick document packages

Uploads are single PNG, JPEG or WebP images up to 10 MB. Please export your target page as an image first.

Identity documents, official seals, or fraudulent edits

We strictly block edits to passports, government IDs, official stamped certificates, and deceptive alterations.

Frequently Asked Questions

Trial credits and pricing, explained

Everything you need to know about credits, processing tiers, and font matching.

What is the difference between Fast and Pro mode?

Fast mode (1 credit) adaptively supports any aspect ratio, including panoramas and long banners with no shape limits, perfect for everyday edits and multi-word replacements. Pro mode (3 credits) delivers 2K flagship textures and realistic lighting for commercial graphics (handles 1:3 to 3:1 aspect ratios).

Is image text editing free?

AI text editing uses credits; enjoy free trial credits upon signup. Purchase pay-as-you-go packs when you need more. Free Add Text overlay is completely free with no signup.

Do I need an account?

You can prepare an image before signing in. AI generation requires an account; free text overlays and downloads do not.

When are credits used?

Credits are reserved when an AI edit begins (1 credit for Fast, 3 credits for Pro). Successful jobs are finalized; confirmed failed or canceled jobs are refunded automatically. Downloading a completed result does not cost another credit. Purchased credits never expire; signup trial credits may have a separate expiry.

Will every font and background match exactly?

No. Small text, curved surfaces and complex backgrounds need careful review. Check text accuracy and the surrounding image before using any result.
