- Image-to-Image: Start with an existing image and transform it in limitless ways. Apply new styles, change compositions, or use it as a springboard for your imagination.
- Inpainting: Selectively edit specific areas within an image. Remove unwanted elements, change details, or extend specific sections seamlessly.
- Outpainting: Expand the borders of your image, generating new content that blends naturally with the original creation. Perfect for expanding landscapes, adding new elements, or creating unique panoramas.
- Upscaling: Increase the resolution or add detail to existing images. Bring older images to life or reveal the fine intricacies within AI-generated art.
How to Use InvokeAI
