How AI is used

Topaz Photo AI is a desktop-based application that uses AI models to enhance image quality. It is designed for users who need to address common photography issues like motion blur, image noise, and poor focus.

The software is built for photographers, videographers, and creative professionals. It provides tools for denoising, sharpening, and upscaling images, with options for local processing on the user's computer and cloud-based rendering.

Buyers should note that Personal plans are generally for use on one computer at a time. Those needing to use the software on multiple computers simultaneously or requiring full commercial rights for larger organizations may need to consider a Pro license.

It can be used as a standalone application or as a plugin for compatible image editing software.
