GPT-IMG
Quote the new wording exactly
Put the replacement text in quotes and name the surface it sits on. "Change the sign to READ ROOM" beats "make the sign say something else" by a wide margin.
GPT-IMGChange or edit text in an image
Upload a photo, say what the wording should be instead, and get it back with the letters swapped and the original typeface, angle, and lighting carried over.
Change text in an image with AI: swap the words on a sign, poster, label or menu inside your photo. Describe the replacement and the lettering is redrawn in style.

Image
Upload at least one reference image before generating.
Edit text in an image: the short version
- What it changes
- Words on a sign, poster, label, menu, or packaging mockup inside a photo. You quote the new wording and name the surface it sits on.
- Typical jobs
- Change a date, a price, a headline, a phone number, or a shop name on an existing image. Other lettering in the frame usually comes back unchanged, but check it before you publish.
- Cost and free credits
- Sign-up gives 30 credits with no payment details, and a 1K text swap on GPT Image 2.5 uses 15, so your first two swaps are free. Free-credit images are watermarked.
- Paying later
- 1,500 credits cost $26.99 once, never expire, and remove the watermark. That is about 100 text swaps at 1K Standard.
- Where it does not fit
- Contracts, invoices, forms, and UI screenshots need exact pixels and a font match. This tool is built for photographs, not documents.
Models that handle lettering well
Text inside a picture is the one job where the choice of model changes the result most. These are the ones worth trying first.
GPT Image 2.5
OpenAI latest image model. Sharper instruction following, cleaner in-image text, up to 4K.
Seedream 5.0 Pro
Strong typography and poster layouts. Handles dense in-image text at 1K and 2K.
GPT Image 2
Most capable OpenAI model. Supports all quality tiers and up to 4K.
Qwen Image Edit
Edit an existing image by describing the change. Requires a reference image.
How swapping words inside a photo actually works
Worth knowing before you upload, because it explains both what this does well and where it is the wrong tool.
GPT-IMG
Say what must not move
A short exclusion list, such as the people, the background, and the lighting, measurably reduces drift. The newer models weigh those clauses heavily.
GPT-IMG
The picture is redrawn, not patched
The model regenerates the frame rather than pasting pixels over the old letters. Composition and detail hold up, but the output is a new rendering of your photo, not the original file with an edit applied.
GPT-IMG
Other text in the shot usually survives
Secondary lettering, such as a chalkboard, a door number, or a street sign, generally comes back readable and unchanged. Check it anyway before you publish.
GPT-IMG
Storefronts and signage
Rename a shop, change a street sign, or swap the wording on a banner while the building, weather, and angle stay put.
GPT-IMG
Packaging and labels
Try a different product name or claim on a bottle, box, or bag without rebuilding the studio shot around it.
GPT-IMG
Posters, menus, and screens
Update a menu board, a poster headline, or the copy on a device screen inside an existing photograph.
