What it can and can’t do
- Needs a reference image of the person to insert, ideally clear and facing the camera.
- Placement is described in a sentence; there is no cut-out, drag or mask tool.
- Lighting and scale are matched by the AI, so mismatched photos (flash vs. daylight, close-up vs. wide) may need a second prompt.
- The AI regenerates the picture, so faces and fine details of people already in it can shift slightly.
- Output is a still image; it does not create video or a moving person.
- One free edit per week with no account; more attempts use credits.
