AI

An image editor that takes instructions.

An embedded copilot that speaks plain English. Your users describe the edit; the assistant runs it on the canvas, layer by layer.

  • Plain-English Commands

    Remove the background. Crop to square. Make it brighter. The assistant runs your prompt as a real edit, not a suggestion.

  • Generative Tools

    Replace skies, swap backgrounds, expand canvases, and remove unwanted objects in one click.

  • Brand-Aware Edits

    Pin a brand palette or reference image; every AI edit stays inside your style guide.

The Unlayer image-editor AI chat panel mid-conversation: prompts like \u201cremove the background\u201d and \u201cexpand the canvas to 16:9\u201d are listed in a transcript, each one paired with a preview of the resulting edit on the canvas.
