Ideogram v2 Inpainting Model - AI Image Models Tool

Overview

Ideogram v2 is a high-quality inpainting and text-to-image model deployed on Replicate that combines content-aware editing with strong prompt comprehension and readable text rendering. According to Replicate’s announcement, Ideogram v2 ships in two deployment variants — ideogram-ai/ideogram-v2 (quality) and ideogram-ai/ideogram-v2-turbo (faster inference) — and is offered via Replicate’s API for both inpainting (mask-driven edits) and full-image generation. (See Replicate blog: https://replicate.com/blog/ideogram-v2-inpainting.) The model is notable for producing legible, well-integrated text in images (useful for posters, signage, packaging and logos) and for robustly following complex prompts. Ideogram’s official docs also describe complementary app features — Magic Prompt, batch generation, a canvas with extend/inpainting tools, and an API for production integration — which make the model practical for design and rapid-iteration workflows. (See Ideogram docs: https://docs.ideogram.ai/.) Replicate and community tooling (for example, the open-source inpainter.app) have integrated Ideogram v2 to provide browser-based GUIs and programmatic access for masked edits and generation. (See GitHub: https://github.com/replicate/inpainter.)

Key Features

• Two variants: quality model and faster 'turbo' deployment for quicker iterations.
• Mask-based inpainting for targeted edits while preserving surrounding image content.
• Industry-strong text rendering — reliable for posters, signage, logos, and labels.
• Good prompt comprehension and Magic Prompt integration for richer prompt generation.
• API-accessible on Replicate and integrated with open-source GUIs like inpainter.app.

Example Usage

Example (python):

import replicate
from pathlib import Path

# Replace REPLICATE_API_TOKEN in your environment
# Minimal inpainting call: provide prompt, image, and mask files
output = replicate.run(
    "ideogram-ai/ideogram-v2",
    input={
        "prompt": "Dinosaurs grazing on a green hill, photorealistic",
        "image": Path("desktop.png"),
        "mask": Path("desktop-mask.png")
    }
)
print(output)  # output typically includes a URL or base64 image payload
