Bing Image Creator is a fantastic tool that's free for everyone with a Microsoft Account (MSA)! Sign up for a new Microsoft Account or sign into your existing Microsoft Account, then you're ready to start creating amazing images.
Bing Image Creator is not available to users signed in with a Microsoft Entra ID (typically a work or school account).

Bing Image Creator allows you to select between two models to generate images:
- If you select MAI-Image-2.5-Flash, hitting the "Create" button may generate multiple images based on your prompt (which will count as one creation). To learn more about MAI-Image-2.5-Flash please review the model card and data summary.
- If you select MAI-Image-2e, hitting the "Create" button may generate multiple images based on your prompt (which will count as one creation). To learn more about MAI-Image-2e please review the model card and data summary.
However, if you upload an image to Bing Image Creator to use or edit, you will not be able to select MAI-Image-2e - all image editing will be done using MAI-Image-2.5-Flash.
Regardless of which model you choose to use, Bing Image Creator has two creation speeds: fast creation and standard creation. Every day, you'll get a total of 15 free fast image creations with Bing Image Creator's fastest speed. If you use up your 15 fast free image creations, they'll replenish the next day!
You can keep enjoying the Bing Image Creator's fast creation experience by using Microsoft Rewards points or you can continue creating for free at our standard speed if you don't mind waiting. Standard creation is slower than the fast creation speed, so images will take longer to generate. You can input up to 200 prompts per 24-hour period. The 200 prompt limit includes each time you click "Edit image". If you use all of your 200 prompts in a given 24-hour period, they'll replenish the next day.
Bing Image Creator strives to provide creations quickly, so in some cases when using a prompt that is similar to other recently used prompts, it may show you a previously generated image that was saved temporarily rather than creating a brand new image from scratch. That saved copy is called a "cached image."
Images uploaded to Bing Image Creator will be saved for up to 30 days. After this time, any images in which faces are detected will be deleted. Images that do not have any faces detected may be stored for up to 18 months. While you cannot delete the images you've uploaded, You can always delete your creations sooner. See "Can I delete my Bing Image Creator profile and history?" below.
Images are used by Bing Image Creator to generate an image and/or make modifications to images based on your requests. We may use images uploaded to generally improve our image processing services, but we will not use them to train models or personalize your Bing Image Creator experience. We will not attempt to identify any faces appearing in uploaded images.
All images you upload for image generation and/or editing using Bing Image Creator should be original images that you own or have the rights to use. Do not upload images that infringe third-party rights (including copyright, trademark, or publicity rights), violate the privacy of others, include depictions of individuals without consent, or otherwise violate the Microsoft Services Agreement and/or the Bing Image Creator Code of Conduct. You are solely responsible for the images you upload. Your account for Bing Image Creator usage may be restricted or suspended if we detect an attempt to upload illegal or prohibited content.
You may only upload images of people with their consent.
When you upload an image to Bing Image Creator, Bing Image Creator uses the image to respond to your request.
If you upload an image or use it for image generation or editing, it's processed to complete your request and may be retained for up to 30 days. Images where faces are detected will be deleted after 30 days; if no faces are detected, images may be stored for up to 18 months.
We may use images uploaded to generally improve our image processing services, but we will not use them to train models or personalize your Bing Image Creator experience. We will not attempt to identify any faces appearing in uploaded images.
Bing Image Creator notifies you that it may process biometric data--like faces or hands--when you use features such as image upload. This biometric processing notice applies any time you upload an image while using Bing Image Creator. This includes through your use of image generating and editing tools. In some regions, you may be required to give consent before Bing Image Creator will process your image. In those regions, you will be asked to give consent, which applies across all Bing Image Creator experiences that involve image input.
Biometric data is only processed if you upload it, and it's solely used to respond to your request. For example, if you snap a selfie and ask Bing Image Creator to edit the image to give you a new hairstyle, it may analyze your facial features to edit the image or generate a new image.
Note that Bing Image Creator does not use uploaded images to train AI models or personalize your experience. We will not attempt to identify any faces appearing in uploaded images. Images where faces are detected will be deleted within 30 days after upload.
You're always in control of what you share. If you prefer not to have biometric data processed, simply avoid using these features. Do not share images of others without their consent.

Creating an image with Bing Image Creator works differently from searching for an image on Bing.
For the best results, be highly descriptive and imaginative. Adding specific details such as adjectives, locations, lighting, camera angles, and media styles like "digital art" or "photorealistic" can significantly enhance the quality of the generated image.
Follow these steps to create a high-quality prompt:
- Be Specific: Include as many relevant details as possible. For example, instead of just "astronaut," provide context and visual cues.
- Use Adjectives: Describe the subject's appearance, colors, and textures. This helps the AI understand your vision.
- Include Action: Specify what the subject is doing. This adds dynamism to your content.
- Set the Scene: Mention the environment or background. It situates the subject within a particular setting.
- Style and Mood: Indicate the media style and mood you desire, like "vintage," "modern," "bright," or "dark."
Here's an example of how to transform a basic prompt into a detailed one for better creation:
- For Bing Image Creator:
- Original image prompt: "astronaut"
- Descriptive prompt: "a close-up photo of an astronaut in a glowing suit made of plasma, as if the galaxy is inside of it, putting on their helmet, but you can't see their face because of the visor, realistic, film stock, bright colors."
By following these guidelines, you can create more detailed and vivid prompts, leading to higher quality AI-generated content.
When you've used up your 15 free fast creations per day on Bing Image Creator, you'll be switched to Bing Image Creator's standard creation speed automatically. You will also be reminded that you have the option to use Microsoft Rewards points to keep enjoying Bing Image Creator's best creation power with the shortest processing time that Bing Image Creator offers.
We'll tell you how many Rewards points each generated image will cost, and you can choose to enable use of Microsoft Rewards points in your Bing Image Creator settings. You can go back to standard creation at any time by enabling standard speed in your Bing Image Creator settings.
When you enable use of Microsoft Rewards points, you are authorizing Microsoft to deduct Microsoft Rewards points from your Rewards points balance each time you generate an image using Bing Image Creator's fast creation speed (after you use up your 15 fast free creations per day) until you change your settings to enable standard speed or until you run out of Microsoft Rewards points, whichever is earlier.
If you run out of Microsoft Rewards points, you will be switched back to Bing Image Creator's standard creation speed automatically, but you will still get your 15 fast creations per day. You will also be reminded that you have the option to earn more Microsoft Rewards points that you can use for additional fast creations.
