Free online photo text editor
Free Photo & Image Text Editor Online
Upload a photo, screenshot, poster, product visual, or AI-generated image. Codia turns embedded words into editable text layers so you can change the copy while preserving the design.
Key advantage
Edit Text in Photos Without Rebuilding the Design
Codia is a free online photo text editor for changing words already embedded in a visual—not simply adding new text on top. This image text editor rebuilds existing copy as editable text layers so you can rewrite it while preserving the surrounding image and layout.
Key advantage
Image and text separated like the original design
Text, images, shapes, and layout are rebuilt as separate elements, so the result feels like opening the original design file instead of editing one flat bitmap.
Key advantage
1:1 text style reconstruction
Codia preserves typography details such as font weight, size, alignment, color, spacing, and hierarchy so edited text still matches the source image.
Key advantage
Recognize text in 108 languages
Work with global image content. Codia recognizes multilingual text across AI images, screenshots, posters, product visuals, and marketing assets.
Key advantage
Flexible canvas editing and export
After conversion, continue editing on the Codia Studio canvas. Move layers, refine text, adjust layout, and export the result for your next workflow.
