- Higgsfield’s Soul AI went viral for its real-photo-style image generation.
- New Inpaint feature lets users edit photos by painting over areas and describing changes.
- Works on both Soul-generated and real images.
- Best for changing outfits, hairstyles, backgrounds, and more in seconds.
- Beta feature available now; fast, intuitive alternative to complex photo editors.
Last month, AI startup Higgsfield rocked the social media scene with its Soul AI image generator, a new powerful tool that transforms written prompts into photographic images.
While generative AI tools are not new anymore, due to the popularity of ChatGPT or Gemini, or Veo 3, Higgsfield Soul was marked by the capability to generate visuals reaching a real photograph created on top-quality camera equipment or even on an iPhone.
Higgsfield has rolled out one more game-changing feature: Inpaint, a photo editing tool that lets one quickly and easily edit AI-generated images, and even real ones, with just a few clicks.
It might be interesting to know why Higgsfield became viral.
- More than 50 visual styles are available to apply before generating an image.
- All styles act like a filter, helping the AI create images as close to the real photography.
- The AI incorporates the selected visual style with your text prompt, delivering results that do not overly plastic feel, but are common in other AI tools.
Soul focuses heavily on content that seems real, would be perfect for creators, influencers, marketers, and even meme-makers.
What is the Inpaint feature?
The Inpaint feature, now available in beta, allows users to make detailed changes to images by selecting specific objects or regions and providing a new text prompt.

What Can You Edit with Inpaint?
According to Higgsfield, you can use it to
- Change outfits, hairstyles, and accessories.
- Make accurate facial edits.
- Edit videos with camera moves, VFX, and avatars.
- Create memes, stories, and faceless content channels.
One area where Soul may need improvement is labeling AI-generated content. While some examples shared by Higgsfield include a watermark, made in Higgsfield, it is unknown whether it is mandatory on all products.
