3 Free AI Face Swapping Tools – Face Swapper vs Remaker vs Akool
In this video will be seeing how to use different AI face swapping tools, which allow you to use them (up to a certain extent) for free. We will be comparing the following tools and seeing which one is the best:
We will also be using Photoshop AI Generative Fill feature in Photoshop Beta, to change the hair in the final image. We will be using Photoshop Beta because we will need to use the Reference image feature in Generative Fill, which is currently only available in the beta version. Here’s the video:
Video Summary
This tutorial by Creative Pad Media compares three AI face-swapping tools and demonstrates how to use Photoshop’s generative AI to refine the results for a more realistic look.
Key Summary Points
- Tool Comparison:
- Face Swapper: Provides 10 free credits upon account creation. It is noted for delivering a solid, clean result [00:10, 03:07].
- Remaker AI: Offers a more generous 30 free credits. The creator observed it slightly struggled with the jawline compared to others [00:30, 04:16].
- Akool: Considered the best in quality by the creator, though it is a paid tool and leaves watermarks on free trial exports [00:36, 03:41].
- Identifying AI Limitations: Most AI face swappers only change the facial features and do not adjust the hair, which can make the swap look less authentic [04:33].
- Photoshop Beta Workflow:
- To achieve a better likeness, the creator uses Photoshop Beta’s “Reference Image” feature within Generative Fill [04:54].
- By selecting the hair and providing a reference photo of the subject (e.g., Lionel Messi), Photoshop can generate a matching hairstyle that blends seamlessly with the swapped face [06:07, 07:14].
- Handling Quality Issues: Free AI tools often downscale image resolution. The tutorial suggests using free web-based upscaling tools to restore sharpness to the final exported image [07:34].
Conclusion: While dedicated face-swapping tools handle the heavy lifting, combining them with Photoshop’s generative tools allows for much higher customization and realism.
