AI Edit is a QGIS plugin that lets you edit aerial and drone images using AI. Describe what you want to change, and the AI modifies only that part of the image.

Can I try it for free?

Yes. You get 5 free generations (100 credits), lifetime (no monthly reset), with no credit card required. Install the plugin, create a free account, and start editing immediately.

How do credits and resolutions work?

Each generation costs credits based on the output resolution: 1K = 20 credits, 2K = 30, 4K = 40. Free tier = 100 credits total (about 5 standard generations). Pro = 3,000 credits per month (about 150 standard generations or 75 high-resolution generations).

When are credits deducted, at click or after success?

Credits are deducted the moment you click Run, not after the result returns. This prevents abuse and lets us guarantee fast, prioritized processing.

What happens if a generation fails?

If a generation fails server-side (network error, model error), the credits are automatically refunded within seconds. If the result completes successfully but you are not happy with it, re-running the prompt consumes a new credit allocation.

If I re-run the same prompt on the same area, do I pay again?

Yes. Each generation is a fresh AI inference, so each consumes credits based on its output resolution. We recommend testing prompts at 1K first to iterate cheaply, then upscaling to 2K or 4K once you are happy with the result.

Does the selected area size or zoom level affect credit cost?

No. Credit cost is fixed per inference and depends only on output resolution (1K, 2K, or 4K), not on the size of the selected area or zoom level.

Can I define what the AI edits?

Yes. You write a text prompt describing exactly what you want to change. The AI follows your instructions. You can remove objects, add elements, modify terrain, or generate design variations.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. There is no minimum commitment. You can subscribe monthly and cancel at any time from your dashboard. Your subscription stays active until the end of the billing period.

Open QGIS, go to Plugins, search for "AI Edit" and click Install. No separate download needed. Works on Windows, macOS, and Linux.

QGIS 3 or later. No GPU required. The AI runs 100% in the cloud. Works on any computer.

The image area you select, its geographic location, your prompt and any reference images are sent to our infrastructure to generate your result. Inputs, outputs and reference images are stored on secure servers in the European Union, so we can offer generation history and support, and you can request deletion at any time. Your prompts are never shared with third parties. See our Privacy Policy for full details.

You can cancel anytime, no commitment. Unused credits expire at the end of your billing period. We don't issue refunds on partial months. Failed generations are refunded automatically in credits.

TerraLab has a new update on QGIS! I created these maps using custom prompts. I was really impressed with the land cover map, it even included land cover classes in the legend even though I did not instruct it to do so. Good job to the team!

I came across the new AI Edit plugin and tested it on a drone dataset from a remote school mapping in Papua New Guinea. The results were impressive, it significantly streamlined the digitizing process and showed real potential for remote mapping workflows.

Urban and environmental planners will enjoy creating custom prompts for nature-based solutions simulations with TerraLab AI Edit. For this experiment I asked it to remove the trash and clean the river, add trees along the riverbanks, add a walking path under the trees, and add public parks in vacant spaces. You can refine specific areas with the Draw tool.
