Editing & cleanup tools
PonPon's one-purpose editing tools: background removal, upscaling, face swap, photo restoration, image-to-image restyle, text fixes, and angle changes — when to reach for each.
Beyond generating, PonPon has a set of single-purpose tools that fix or transform something you already have. Each does one job well — pick the tool, drop in your media, and get a clean result. They're fast and cheap compared to a full render, since they only touch one thing. This page is a map; follow a link for the dedicated tool.
Clean up and remove
- Remove image background — cut out the subject and export a transparent PNG in one click.
- Remove video background — the same, for footage, with no green screen needed.
Sharpen and restore
- Image upscaler — increase resolution and detail for print or large displays.
- Video upscaler — upscale clips to a higher resolution.
- Photo restoration — repair old, scratched, or low-quality photos.
Transform
- Face swap — swap a face across photos, videos, and GIFs.
- Image to image — restyle an existing image with a prompt while keeping its structure.
- Multi-angle — generate the same subject from a different camera angle.
- Text edit — fix or replace words rendered inside an image.
Which one do I need?
| Goal | Tool | You give → you get |
|---|---|---|
| Transparent cutout | Remove background | image → transparent PNG |
| Make a small image print-sharp | Image upscaler | image → higher-res image |
| Fix a damaged old photo | Photo restoration | old photo → restored photo |
| Put a face onto another shot | Face swap | source + target → swapped media |
| Restyle a picture, keep the layout | Image to image | image + prompt → restyled image |
| Correct misspelled in-image text | Text edit | image → corrected image |
| See the subject from another angle | Multi-angle | image → new-angle image |
Worked example. You generated a product shot you like, but you need it for a store listing: run it through Remove background for a transparent PNG, then Image upscaler to make it print-sharp. Two quick, cheap passes — no re-rendering the whole image.
Tool vs annotate-edit
These tools each do one fixed job on a whole image or clip. When you instead want to change a specific region of a generated image with a free-text instruction ("make this jacket red"), that's annotate-and-edit — see Annotate edits & reference images, powered by GPT Image 2 editing and Nano Banana Pro precision editing.
