Image edits that do not drift

The problem

Iterating on a generated image often changes the parts the customer wanted to keep.

Who would pay for this?

Designers and product teams making campaign images, plus developers who want that in an API.

How could it make money?

A possible model is api. That is an editorial guess from the shape of the launch, not a published price, and not evidence that Ideogram uses it.

What would the MVP look like?

An edit endpoint that locks the unchanged regions and shows the last few versions side by side.

Product that inspired this idea

Ideogram’s edit model, posted as a way to make several edits in a row without the image drifting. Live in the product and the API.
