What is AI style transfer?

AI style transfer changes the visual treatment of an existing image, including its photographic look, artistic medium, texture, or color. You can restyle a photo into another photographic style, such as giving a vintage portrait a contemporary studio look. Hotpot AI Restyler lets you choose a catalog style, provide a reference image, or describe the look you want.

Can I restyle paintings, comics, and illustrations?

Yes. Your starting image can be a photo, painting, comic, illustration, or other artwork. Turn a comic into a painting, reinterpret a painting in another style, or explore a different medium. Choose a style, upload a reference, or describe the treatment you want.

Can I use my own style reference?

Yes. Upload your original image and a separate reference image. The reference guides the artistic treatment of the original, such as its medium, texture, and color.

Can I change colors without changing the whole style?

Yes. Describe the color change you want, such as changing a red jacket to navy blue, and specify what should stay the same. Review the result for unintended changes.

Will every detail stay exactly the same?

Restyler is designed to preserve the content of your original while changing its treatment, but AI can alter details. Check faces, text, and other important features before using the result.

How much does restyling cost?

Restyling uses credits. The editor shows the credit cost before you create an image.
