What is Qwen Image Edit?

Advanced Dual-Modal Control for Semantic and Appearance Editing

Qwen Image Edit is Alibaba's groundbreaking 20B parameter image editing model, officially released on August 19, 2025. Built on the powerful Qwen-Image foundation model, it combines Qwen2.5-VL for semantic control with VAE Encoder for appearance control. This dual-modal approach enables both high-level semantic editing while preserving visual consistency and low-level appearance modifications with pixel-perfect precision.

  • Dual-Modal Control: Qwen2.5-VL handles semantic understanding while VAE Encoder manages visual appearance
  • Multilingual Text Rendering: Superior performance in Chinese, English, Korean, Japanese text editing
  • Semantic Editing: Maintain character consistency while allowing transformative changes
  • Appearance Editing: Precise local modifications while keeping other areas unchanged
