Who Uses Musely to Edit Text on Photos?
Update Property Listing Photos
I edit text on property photos to update pricing and availability details. Musely saves me from reshoting photos every time a listing changes.
Update Product Photo Labels
Musely lets me edit text on product photos for different markets without reshooting. I updated 300 product images for our Spanish launch in one afternoon.
Fix Text in Social Media Graphics
I caught a typo on a campaign photo right before launch. Musely fixed it in 60 seconds without me needing to find the original design file.
Translate Signs in Travel Photos
I edit text on my travel photos to show readers what foreign signs say. Musely translates the text and makes it look like the sign was always in English.
Localize Campaign Photography
We run campaigns in 8 countries. Musely lets us edit text on the same hero photos for each market, saving $15,000 per campaign in reshooting costs.
Update Menu Board Photos
When prices change, I use Musely to edit the text on our menu board photos instead of printing new boards and taking new pictures. Saves time and money.

“Musely saved our campaign launch when we found a typo on our billboard photo. Fixed the text on the photo in 60 seconds and the client never knew there was an issue.”
“I use Musely weekly to translate text on photos of foreign menus and signs for my travel blog. Works well for clean text but very ornate calligraphy sometimes needs a retry.”
