Bing Image Creator
by Microsoft
Microsoft's AI image generator that turns text prompts and images into creative visuals, artwork, designs, and edited images.
Bing Image Creator is Microsoft's AI-powered image creation tool that turns natural-language prompts into generated visuals. Users can describe an idea, choose available image-generation models and aspect ratios, and create images for illustrations, social media, thumbnails, wallpapers, concepts, posters, and other creative projects. The service also supports transforming or remixing uploaded images. Current Bing Image Creator experiences expose Microsoft's MAI-Image-2.5-Flash and MAI-Image-2e models, with different generation modes and output options. The service is available through Bing and related Microsoft experiences, with free creation options subject to account, usage, and regional availability.
