Add text to images by typing your edits

Need to add text to photos quickly? VEED's AI image editor lets you add text by describing what you want. Type "Add white text saying SALE 50% at the top" and the AI renders it directly on your image. Perfect for social media managers creating photo captions, e-commerce teams adding product labels, and content creators producing branded content. Specify text content, style, position, and colors in your prompt. The AI handles text rendering, spacing, and positioning for you.

How to add text to photo:

Step 01

Upload your image

Upload the photo where you want to add text. You can upscale low-resolution images first if needed.

Step 02

Describe the text you want

Type your prompt describing the text content, style, and position. Try "Add bold white text 'NEW ARRIVAL' at the top center" or "Put small caption text at the bottom in black."

Step 03

Download or create a video

Save your image with text added, or switch to image-to-video mode to animate your design for social media posts.

FAQ

  • Upload your image to VEED's AI image editor and describe the text you want: "Add text saying [your message] in [style/position]." The AI renders text directly on your image.

  • For photo captions, type prompts like "Add caption [your text] at the bottom of the image" in the AI image editor. Specify font style, size, and color in your prompt. This works great for bulk caption creation across multiple images.

  • Yes. Upload images with existing text and prompt the AI to modify it: "Change headline text to [new text]" or "Update price to $29.99." The AI replaces the text while preserving your image design. This works for updating product prices, fixing typos in marketing materials, or changing campaign copy without rebuilding designs.

  • Upload your photo, then prompt: "Add white text [your caption] at the bottom for Instagram" or "Put bold headline text at the top." The AI adds text to your image based on your description.

  • VEED uses a credit-based system. Each AI model costs different credits per generation. You get prompt-based text styling, access to advanced models for accurate text rendering, and the ability to animate images afterward.

I found VEED at the right time: if you're making UGC ads and not using Eye Contact Correction and Noise Reduction on VEED you're missing out on ROI.
