Designer-quality fonts — ready for any project
Generate polished, custom text art in seconds
Unique word art, no experience necessary
Create eye-catching text in endless styles with Kapwing’s AI Font Generator. Chat with Kai, our AI assistant, to design and edit unique word art using simple prompts anyone can master. Describe your vibe — realistic plant vines, spray-paint graffiti, computer glitch, metallic chrome, neon light — and watch the AI instantly bring your letters to life.
Save your exact style as a Custom Kai, and you’ll never have to retype your prompt again.
Easily adjust backgrounds, colors, aspect ratios, and 3D or flat styles — or even animate your text into a GIF. When you're ready, download your visual in HD (JPG, PNG, or WebP) for seamless use across all your marketing, branding, and social content projects.
Pro text designs for any project or platform
Skip generic font libraries and templates: Kapwing’s AI text generator takes you from concept to high-quality text art through a simple chatbot interface that feels like talking to your own personal creative designer.
With support for transparent backgrounds (or the ability to remove backgrounds later in the studio), it’s never been easier to create high-quality logo wordmarks for your brand, store, or profile.
Customized business cards, invitations, the latest meme trend, or scroll-stopping text art for marketing and advertising campaigns — all of it is just a single prompt away.
Make your text move — and your audience stop scrolling
Supercharge engagement on social posts or websites with studio-quality text animations. Activate Kai’s animated font generator with a simple prompt like animate this image, then export your design as a video or GIF.
Choose any motion style you can imagine, from bounce to glow or distortion, and make sure your key messages, slogans, and product names get the attention they deserve.
Whether you're making a short-form video, a product promo, a creator intro, or a polished brand visual, animated fonts give your content the stopping power it needs to stand out.

What kinds of fonts can I create?
You can use the AI font creator to generate text in any kind of font you can imagine, including funny, scary, gothic, 3D, cursive, and comic book speech bubbles. Try requesting realistic 3D letters made out of growing plant vines, children's letter blocks, or water droplets. Or request calligraphy, creepy fonts, or graffiti. Kapwing's AI assistant will generate a unique font featuring your words based on your description.
Can I generate custom fonts on my phone?
Yes, you can use Kapwing's online AI font creator on your phone or tablet by opening a new chat in Kai using your mobile browser. From there, the process is the same: just enter a prompt describing the cool font you want to create, with your specific words in quotation marks.

Kai generates text art as easily downloadable JPEG files. If you prefer your image in a different format, just click "Edit with Kapwing" to move it to the studio. From there, you can export your font image as JPEG, PNG, or WEBP.
How should I write my prompts for the best results?
