How it works

  1. Upload your photo

    Upload any photo for color work. Images with varied tones give the AI more to work with for roof color adjustments. JPG, PNG, WebP up to 7MB.

    Expect: Most edits complete in 20-45 seconds. Complex changes may need 1-2 refinements.

  2. Describe your edit

    Type what you want: 'Change the roof color to charcoal gray shingles.' Be specific about details for best results. The AI understands natural language — no technical skills needed.

    Tip: Tap a marker on the specific object whose color you want to change.

    Copy one of these to get started:

    Charcoal Shingles Change the roof to dark charcoal gray architectural shingles
    Try This →
    Terracotta Tile Change the roof to terracotta clay tile roofing with a warm reddish-brown color
    Try This →
    Slate Gray Change the roof color to natural slate gray with varied stone-like texture
    Try This →
    Black Metal Change the roof to standing seam black metal roofing
    Try This →
    2 more prompts
    Brown Blend Change the roof to a warm brown blend with mixed tan and brown shingle tones
    Try This →
    Green Copper Change the roof to a weathered green copper patina finish
    Try This →

  3. Review the result

    Compare the color adjustment against the original using the slider. Verify that tones look natural, skin colors weren't distorted, and the overall mood matches what you described.

  4. Refine if needed

    If certain areas got the wrong color treatment — like skin turning orange or shadows going muddy — tap markers on those spots and describe the correction you need.

    Tip: Markers are optional. Try without them first — the AI usually gets it right.

Detailed Guides by Scenario

📷

Interior Design & Renovation

Visualize roof color changes before painting, reupholstering, or purchasing — saving time and money on design decisions.

Common Scenarios

  • Testing how a roof looks in navy, sage, or terracotta before committing
  • Showing clients multiple roof color options using the same room photo
  • Matching roof color to existing decor in a renovation plan

Best Practices

  • Upload a photo with even lighting so the AI can accurately map the color boundary
  • Tap directly on the roof to mark it, then specify the exact color you want
  • Try describing the finish too — 'matte charcoal' vs. 'glossy charcoal' gives different results
📷

Fashion & Style Preview

Try different roof colors digitally before purchasing or coordinating an outfit.

Common Scenarios

  • Previewing a roof in multiple colors before buying online
  • Coordinating roof color with the rest of an outfit for an event
  • Creating mood boards that show roof color variations for a stylist or client

Best Practices

  • Mark the roof precisely — if nearby items share a similar color, the AI may change them too
  • Specify the fabric look: 'change to burgundy silk' captures both color and material
  • Process the same photo with 3-4 colors to build a comparison grid
📷

Product & Marketing Visuals

Generate roof color variants from a single product photo — perfect for catalogs, ads, and e-commerce listings.

Common Scenarios

  • Creating all color variants of a roof from one studio shot
  • Matching roof to brand colors for marketing campaigns
  • Showing seasonal roof color options without reshooting

Best Practices

  • Start with a neutral, well-lit product photo on a plain background for cleanest results
  • Use exact color names or hex codes when precision matters — 'Pantone Classic Blue' or '#0F4C81'
  • After changing roof color, verify shadows and highlights still look natural

If something looks off

AI changed the wrong area

Why: The AI couldn't determine exactly which area you meant from the description alone.

Try: Tap a marker on the specific area you want to edit, then regenerate with the same prompt
Try This →

Tip: Markers tell the AI exactly where to focus. Use them when description alone is ambiguous.

Result looks unnatural or blurry

Why: The AI may need more specific guidance about the look you want.

Try: Change the roof color to charcoal gray shingles, ensure natural lighting and sharp details that match the rest of the photo
Try This →

Tip: Adding 'natural' and 'realistic' to your prompt helps the AI prioritize believability.

Color bled onto adjacent objects

Why: The AI couldn't precisely separate the target object from its neighbors.

Try: Tap a marker on the specific object and regenerate: 'only change the color of this object'
Try This →

Tip: Tap a marker on the specific object whose color you want to change for precise results.

New color looks flat without the original texture

Why: The AI replaced the color but lost the surface detail like wood grain, fabric weave, or brushstrokes.

Try: Add 'preserve the original surface texture, reflections, and material properties' to your prompt
Try This →

Tip: Mention the material: 'keep the wood grain visible' or 'preserve the matte finish.'

Metallic or glossy finish not preserved

Why: The AI treated the surface as matte when recoloring, losing the shine and reflections.

Try: Specify 'keep the metallic/glossy finish with natural reflections and highlights'
Try This →

Tip: Include surface type in your prompt: 'glossy', 'metallic', 'satin', or 'matte' for accurate rendering.
