AI can now both generate images from text AND enhance existing images. But they're very different tools for different jobs.
AI Generation (Text-to-Image)
Best for: concept art, social media graphics, blog illustrations, creative brainstorming. You describe what you want and AI creates it. Tools: DALL-E, Midjourney, Stable Diffusion.
AI Editing (Enhancement)
Best for: improving real photos, removing backgrounds, upscaling, and color correction. You provide a real image and AI improves it. Tools: our background remover, upscaler, and photo enhancer.
The Key Difference
Generated images look 'AI' — great for illustration but not for product photos, headshots, or documentation. AI editing makes your REAL photos better — that's what professionals actually use daily.
