How AI is used

Photopea is a web-based image editor that operates within the browser, which means no software downloads are required. It processes files locally on the user's device, which helps keep files from being uploaded to a remote server during the editing process.

The tool is designed for a range of users, from small business owners creating promotional materials to graphic designers who need a browser-based editor. It supports various formats, including PSD, RAW, and some video formats.

Key capabilities include layering, masking, and AI tools for removing backgrounds or replacing image content via text descriptions. It also includes tools for vector graphics, which may be used for creating logos or icons.

Buyers should note that because it runs in the browser, performance is dependent on the user's local hardware, specifically the CPU and GPU. Those needing unlimited use of AI features should confirm premium account options.
