05The guide

One editor, start to finish

What the AI does, and what you do

Most AI photo editing online comes down to a few jobs: separating a subject from its background, removing something that should not be there, and cleaning up what is left. In CutLift the AI handles the heavy part. Remove background and Select subject find the main subject in one step, and the Remove Object brush fills the gap when you paint over a sign, a bin or a stranger in the frame.

The finishing touches stay in your hands. The Spot Healing Brush clears dust and blemishes, the Healing Brush and Clone Stamp repair larger areas, and Liquify makes small shape corrections. Every cutout sits on its own layer and every step can be undone, so you can edit photos with AI and still change your mind later.

Colour and tone in the same place

Once the photo is clean, finish it without switching apps. Curves and Levels set contrast, Exposure and Brightness/Contrast rescue a dark or flat shot, Hue/Saturation and Vibrance adjust colour, and Colour balance corrects a cast. Black & White, Gaussian, motion and lens blur, Unsharp mask and noise reduction are in the same photo editor with AI. If the horizon leans, crop first: Ctrl-drag (⌘ on a Mac) along it to level the picture.

Free AI photo editing, and where Pro fits

The free plan is a complete editor: background removal is unlimited, the object remover and retouching tools are free, and there are no credits and no watermark. It opens JPEG, PNG, WebP, PSD and Camera RAW files, and saves PNG or WebP cutouts, masks, a layered PSD or a project file you can reopen later.

CutLift Pro ($7.99 a month, or $47.99 a year) adds the AI click-to-select, Segment everything, Select by name, Upscale ×2 and ×4, Sky replacement, Hair & fur refinement and batch background removal. You can try every Pro tool while you edit. Only the download of a result that used one asks for Pro, and each account gets one free premium download.

Why no upload matters

Many free AI photo editors send each picture to a server to process it. CutLift does the work on your own computer, tablet or phone, so family photos, client work and unreleased product shots are never uploaded. It is AI photo editing software that lives in a browser tab, with nothing to install and no files left on someone else’s machine.
