Pixlr by INMAGINE
Pixlr is an AI-powered online photo editing and design platform. It enables everyone to edit photos and create stunning designs in their browser, both on their phones and computer.
You can start from scratch with an empty canvas, a photo, or a video, or select one of Pixlr’s templates. These templates are for things like creating a YouTube banner, Instagram story, resume, brochure, business card, presentation, or a fancy sales pitch.
Basic photo editing aside, Pixlr offers an AI-powered one-click visual creator called Photomash Studio, which can remove backgrounds from your photos. As you would imagine, this feat makes it perfect for creating profile pictures, product images, YouTube thumbnails, and more.
Pixlr also allows you to quickly animate any design using its professional-looking animation presets — or you can tune into advanced options and play with timeline details. Moreover, there is a collage maker that lets you create photo collages which too are paired with fancy templates.
Photo filters are on board as well, allowing you to transform your photos into artistic visuals. There are many options to choose from, spanning effects, overlays, and neat photo borders — helping you create unique, visually striking content.
Finally, if you want to pay extra, Pixlr offers a premium access option that (obviously) goes beyond its free offering, allowing you to explore all the tools, templates, elements, and fonts it has. If you need to frequently create and edit photos, consider giving Pixlr a try.
