Ideogram is an AI tool that makes images from a text description, and it is especially good at putting readable words inside pictures.
In plain words
You describe the picture you want, and Ideogram generates it. Because it can place exact words in a picture, it suits posters, captions and brand names. Its newest model, Ideogram 4.5, can change one part of an image and leave the rest untouched, and it can remove or replace a background. Developers can use its image and video models through an API.
A quick example
Imagine you need a poster for a school bake sale. You describe a cupcake stall with the words 'Bake sale, Friday' in bold letters. Ideogram returns an image with the words spelled out, and you can then edit just the background without redrawing the rest.
Where you'll meet it
- Posters, captions and other designs that include text.
- Apps that add image or video generation through Ideogram's API.
