AI inpainting
Brush over the part of a picture you want to change and describe what belongs there. The model repaints only that area to match the light, colour and grain around it, so the rest of the photo stays as it was. Add a reference image to show exactly what to put in, and keep editing the result one step at a time.
What it does
- Brush, then describePaint the area with a brush you can size, erase what you painted too much, and write the change in plain words.
- Remove anythingPaint over a stranger, a power line, a logo or a date stamp and ask for what is behind it.
- Swap and add objectsReplace a product, a sign or a piece of furniture, or add something new that matches the scene.
- Reference imagesAdd up to two images of what to put in the painted area, such as your own product.
- Edit step by stepPress "Edit this" under a result to paint on it again. Every version is kept in Assets.
- A failed edit is freeThe credits are held when you start and come back automatically if the edit fails.

How it works
- Open Edit Image and upload a PNG, JPEG or WebP, or pick a picture you made here.
- Paint over the part to change. Use the eraser to take back what you painted too much.
- Write what should be there, add a reference image if you have one, and pick the model and the resolution.
- Check the price on the Generate button and press it. The result appears next to the original and in Assets.
Tips
- Paint a little beyond the edges of the object, so its shadow and outline are replaced too.
- Describe the result, not the action: "a wooden bench" works better than "change the chair".
- Nano Banana Pro matches photographs best; the lower-cost model is good for drafts and simple removals.
- For a large change, edit in two or three smaller steps.
Questions
- How much does inpainting cost?
- From 3 credits an edit, depending on the model and the resolution. The exact price is on the Generate button, and a failed edit costs nothing.
- Can I inpaint for free?
- The editing models come with every paid plan, from $10 a month. Every new account also gets free credits for the fast image models on the Image page.
- Does the rest of the picture stay the same?
- The model is told to keep everything outside the painted area as it is, with the same framing and light. Fine detail outside it can still shift slightly, so check the result at full size before you publish it.
- Can I use it on photos of people?
- Only on photos you have the right to use, and never to make a real person appear to do something they did not. Face swaps and deepfakes are not allowed; see the Acceptable Use Policy.
