Transform an Existing Image with AI

Upload any image and describe how it should change. VidTool AI applies your edit using GPT Image 2, Nano Banana Pro, Nano Banana 2, or FLUX 2 — restyle, repaint, swap elements, or transform the entire composition while preserving what matters.

Product variations, style transfers, background replacements, character consistency — start from what you have and let AI handle the transformation.

Why Image-to-Image Instead of Generating from Scratch?

Text-to-image starts from nothing — you describe everything and hope the model matches your vision. Image-to-Image starts from what you already have: a product photo, a brand asset, a previous generation, or a reference you like.

This means faster iteration, better consistency, and precise control over what changes vs. what stays. Edit one element without regenerating the entire scene.

CAPABILITIES

What You Can Do with Image-to-Image AI

Transform, edit, and restyle existing images with precision.

Style Transfer

Change art style while keeping composition — turn a photo into watercolor, oil painting, anime, or any visual style you describe.

Element Editing

Replace backgrounds, change clothing, modify colors, add or remove objects — target specific elements without affecting the rest of the image.

Product Variations

Same product in different environments, colors, or contexts — generate catalog variations from a single source shot.

Identity Consistency

Use reference images to maintain character, brand, or product identity across multiple generations — keep the same face or object consistent.

How to Edit Images with AI

From reference image to transformed output in four steps.

1

Upload your reference image

Choose the image you want to transform. Product photos, portraits, illustrations, screenshots — any image you want to modify while keeping certain elements intact.

2

Write an edit prompt

Describe what should change: restyle to watercolor, replace the background with a beach, change the outfit to red, add dramatic lighting. Be specific about what to modify and what to preserve.

3

Choose model & settings

Pick from GPT Image 2, Nano Banana Pro, Nano Banana 2, or FLUX 2. Set resolution and quality level. Each model handles edits differently — experiment to find the best fit.

4

Generate, compare & download

Submit the edit. Compare the output against your original, iterate on the prompt if needed, and download the final result.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions about Image-to-Image AI

Common questions about editing and transforming images with AI.

What is Image-to-Image AI?

Image-to-Image AI takes an existing image you upload as a reference and transforms, edits, or restyls it based on a text prompt. Unlike text-to-image which generates from scratch, image-to-image preserves elements from your source while applying the changes you describe.

Which models support Image-to-Image on VidTool AI?

GPT Image 2, Nano Banana Pro, Nano Banana 2, and FLUX 2 all support edit mode. Upload one or more reference images alongside your prompt — the model modifies the source according to your instructions rather than generating from zero.

What can I do with Image-to-Image?

Common use cases include restyling photos (change art style while keeping composition), editing specific elements (replace background, change clothing, modify colors), product variations (same product in different environments), and identity-consistent generation (maintain a character or brand look across outputs).

How many reference images can I upload?

Most models accept 1 reference image for edit mode. Nano Banana Pro and Nano Banana 2 support multiple references for more complex transformations. The number of references affects how the model interprets your edit prompt.

What image formats can I upload?

Upload JPEG, PNG, or WebP images as references. The model processes your source and applies the transformation described in your prompt, outputting the result in the same high-quality format.

Do I need to sign in?

Yes. Image-to-Image editing requires a VidTool AI account and credits. Sign up is free — then choose a plan to start transforming your images.

How many credits does an edit cost?

Credit costs match the base model: GPT Image 2 ranges from 2–36 credits depending on quality setting. Nano Banana Pro costs 8–16 credits by resolution. Nano Banana 2 costs 2–8 credits. FLUX 2 costs 4 credits per edit.

What is the difference between Image-to-Image and Image-to-Video?

Image-to-Image produces a modified still image — same medium, different content. Image-to-Video takes a still image and animates it into a video clip with motion. Choose Image-to-Image when your final output is a static image; choose Image-to-Video when you want motion.
