The price in your store is current, but the product image in a launch post still says $49.99. You have the exported image and the new price, but the original design file is gone. The price is now part of the pixels, so fixing it means replacing the lettering on the tag without disturbing the product around it.

Here's a small workflow for updating a short price, date, or offer on a product image you own. The example uses a fictional mug promotion.

1. Start with the largest export you have

Use the original PNG, JPG, or WebP if you have it. A screenshot of the image in a chat or a resized thumbnail gives the editor less detail to work with. Keep the source file so you can compare the result, and confirm the replacement price against your store before editing.

2. Replace one exact string

For this example, I’m using the ImgPilot image text editor. I’m part of the ImgPilot team. Upload the image, enter $49.99 under Current text and $39.99 under New text. To specify the position and styling, choose Describe the change in your own words. Here’s the prompt used for the example below.

Change the price on the tag from "$49.99" to "$39.99", keep the bold white numbers, red tag and white border identical.

Including the old text and naming its location is especially helpful if the same number appears elsewhere in the image. ImgPilot shows the credit cost before you run the edit.

This before-and-after pair comes from a published GPT Image 2 example. It shows one run on one image.

3. Check the export before replacing the asset

  • Check each character. Read the price back against your source of truth. Look closely at the decimal point, currency symbol, and digits.
  • Compare outside the tag. Toggle between the images and check the product outline, logo, and nearby graphics for unexpected changes.
  • Preview at the real display size. A price that reads clearly at full size can become hard to read in a card or thumbnail. Check the exported dimensions before replacing a larger asset.

If a digit is wrong, retry from the original with a shorter instruction. If the image needs several changes, or you need exact typography, rebuild the text as an editable layer. Keeping the price in HTML or in an editable design layer also makes the next price change simpler.
