Improve email visuals with Stripo AI: Quick image edits inside the editor

Editing images is often the last thing that slows down an email before sending. Even small changes can mean switching tools, re-exporting files, or breaking your workflow.

Stripo’s AI image editing feature lets you improve visuals directly inside the editor using simple text instructions. You describe what needs to change, and the image is updated without you having to leave the email or open any design tools.

Why image edits slow down email production

Most image issues show up at the final stage, when the email is already built and ready to send. A product image may not match the background, a banner might need a quick adjustment, or a small detail might just look off. At this point, even minor fixes become separate tasks.

To make that change, you usually have to open another tool, edit the image, export it, and upload it back into the email. This interrupts the flow and adds extra steps to something that should take seconds. If a designer is involved, the delay becomes even more noticeable, especially when the change is small but still blocks the final send, and the designer is not available at that moment.

What Stripo AI image editing does

Stripo AI image editing lets you update visuals right inside the email editor — without opening any external tools. You select an image in your layout and apply a change using short instructions or a preset action, and the system updates the image in place.

The edited version automatically replaces the original, so you see it in the email immediately. This keeps the workflow simple and focused on the final result rather than the editing process.

It’s important to understand how this feature works. There are no layers, brushes, or manual selection tools. You don’t edit parts of the image step by step. Instead, you describe what needs to be changed, and the system returns an updated version. This approach works best for quick adjustments, not for detailed design work.

When to use this feature

This feature is most useful in real production moments, when the email is almost ready, but the visuals need quick adjustments. You don’t need to restart the design process or involve extra tools.

• updating product visuals before sending;
• adjusting banners to match a campaign;
• creating quick variations of an existing image;
• making small fixes without involving a designer.

How to make quick edits inside real emails

These are typical situations in which AI image editing helps you move faster without leaving the editor. To get started, select the image you want to edit in the editor.

Then, hover over the three dots on the image to open the menu and click the magic wand icon labeled Improve with AI.

In the pop-up, you can enter short instructions describing what you want to change. You can also choose from preset options for common actions, such as changing colors, removing the background, or translating text.

Removing the background from a product image

A product image may include a background that doesn’t match your email design. You can remove it directly in the editor and place the product on a clean or brand-colored background without exporting and re-uploading the image.

Updating banner colors to match a campaign

Campaign visuals often change at the last moment. Instead of redesigning a banner, you can adjust its background or dominant colors so it matches the current campaign style and keeps the email visually consistent.

Changing text language inside an image for localization

If you send emails to different regions, the same visual may require text updates. You can change the language directly inside the image, which helps prepare localized versions faster without creating separate designs from scratch.

Practical tips for better results

To get consistent results, keep your instructions simple and focused. Short, clear requests work better than long descriptions:

• keep instructions short and specific (e.g., “remove background” or “make background white”);
• apply one change at a time instead of combining multiple edits;
• review the updated image directly in the email layout, not in isolation;
• repeat the edit with a refined request if the result needs adjustment.

What to adjust after editing

After the image is updated, a few small adjustments may be needed to keep the layout clean.

The proportions of the edited image are usually kept close to those of the original, but its size can slightly change. Because of this, spacing or alignment inside the email may shift a bit.

These changes are easy to fix and take only a few seconds in the editor.

Wrapping up

Stripo AI image editing helps you make quick visual updates at the moment you need them. You don’t have to leave the editor, switch tools, or delay sending because of small fixes.

It works best for simple, fast changes when your email is already built and you’re finalizing the details. Instead of interrupting your workflow, you can adjust images directly in the layout and move forward without extra steps.
