FAQPage Schema
How do I remove an object from a photo using AI?

Object removal from a photo is handled by providing an image URL and a prompt describing the element to remove. The skill uses models like Bria Fibo Edit to process the request and returns a new image URL with the object erased.

What's the best way to change a background in an image via API?

Changing an image background via API requires a source image URL and a prompt describing the new scene. The skill utilizes Flux Kontext for background changes, generating an updated image URL with the newly specified environment.

Do I need a fal.ai API key to perform image edits?

Yes, a fal.ai API key is required to authenticate and perform AI image edits. You must provide this key along with your source image URL and editing instructions to process style transfers or object removals.

How does inpainting work for masked image edits?

Inpainting for masked edits works by providing a source image URL alongside a mask URL and a prompt. The AI processes only the masked areas to apply targeted changes, generating a modified image URL.

Can I apply style transfer to an image without manual processing?

Yes, style transfer is applied automatically by submitting an image URL and a prompt describing the desired aesthetic. Models like Nano Banana Pro execute the general edits, returning a stylized image URL.

What are the limitations of using AI for background changes and object removal?
