What's different about Kapwing?
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the AI Image Generator free?
No, Kapwing's AI Image Generator is not free and requires a paid subscription.
Is there a watermark on AI images?
If you are using Kapwing on a Free account then all AI images will contain a watermark. Once you upgrade to a Pro account the watermark will be completely removed from your creations.
Can you re-create celebrities using AI?
No, you cannot use Kapwing's AI Image Generator to create replica images of celebrities. This is due to two key considerations:
- Right of publicity: Celebrities have a "right of publicity," which protects their name, image, and likeness from being used for commercial purposes without their consent
- Copyright: If AI-generated images are based on existing copyrighted photos or artwork, this could infringe on the copyright of the original creators
Can AI images be monetized on YouTube, TikTok, Instagram and other social media?
Yes, AI Images be monetized on YouTube, TikTok, Facebook, Instagram, and other social media channels. Every social media network has a unique set of community standards, copyright laws, and platform restrictions so make sure you read them to fully understand monetization policies. Nonetheless, as the license holder of any AI-generated image on Kapwing, you should be free to upload and monetize the content.
Can I add custom branding to AI-generated images?
Yes, you can add branded backgrounds, colors, images, and logos to your AI-generated images. First, you need to generate your image using AI. Next, upload your desired branding and add it to the editing timeline at the bottom of the screen. To remove Kapwing's watermark branding, you need a paid subscription.
Are AI image generators safe?
Advancements in AI have led to various concerns and confusion. Some are skeptical about using AI to assist with their work because of what may feel like a sudden jump in technology. Others are unsure about data collection. Rest assured, Kapwing is very safe to use and we have strict moderation guidelines and ethics policies in place. You can read more under our full Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
Are AI-generated images copyrighted?
AI-generated images are generally not protected by copyright because copyright law typically applies to works created by humans, not by machines or algorithms. This means that, in most jurisdictions, you cannot claim copyright over artwork created entirely by an AI. Likewise, when using an AI image generator, it's important to respect the copyrights of other artists, especially if you are trying to emulate a specific artistic style or aesthetic, as this could still raise legal issues
What are the best prompts for image generation?
The best image generation prompts are clear, descriptive, and specific. A strong prompt should include details about the subject, style, lighting, and mood to guide the AI in creating an accurate and visually appealing image. Adding artistic mediums (e.g., "oil painting," "digital illustration") or realism levels (e.g., "hyper-realistic," "cartoon-style") can further refine the output.
Try structuring your prompt like this:
- Subject: What is in the image?
- Style/Medium: What artistic style or medium should it follow?
- Lighting & Mood: What atmosphere or setting should it have?
Example Prompts:
- "A hyper-realistic portrait of a golden retriever sitting in a sunlit garden, shot with a DSLR camera."
- "A futuristic cyberpunk city at night, glowing neon lights reflecting off rainy streets, in the style of digital concept art."
- "A watercolor painting of a cozy cottage in the woods, surrounded by autumn leaves."
After experimenting with these examples, try writing your own prompt in Kapwing's image generator to explore endless creative possibilities!
How do I create AI images in different sizes?
Kapwing's AI tool generates images in a 1:1 ratio (1080 x 1080 pixels) by default. To resize the image, you can use the 'Magic Fill' feature in the right-hand toolbar under 'Edit'. This tool extends the background of your image to match your selected aspect ratio while preserving the overall context of the image.
Can the AI Image Generator produce accurate hands, teeth, and text?
Yes, Kapwing's AI Generator can handle intricate human and text details, and if the result isn’t quite right, you can tweak the prompt and regenerate the image. However, there are a few reasons why AI image generators sometimes create 'weird' visuals, especially with features like hands, teeth, fingers, and text:
- Complexity of features: Hands, fingers, and teeth are highly detailed and vary in shape, making them challenging for AI to replicate accurately
- Training data limitations: AI models are trained on large datasets, which may not always include enough high-quality examples of complex features, leading to distorted or unrealistic results
- Text rendering challenges: AI models are typically not designed to fully understand written language, so generated text can appear garbled or nonsensical
- Rendering focus: AI often prioritizes overall shapes and composition over fine details, which can make features like hands and teeth look less precise
Kapwing is free to use for teams of any size. We also offer paid plans with additional features, storage, and support.
