One source image, three edits, no round trip through a design tool.

Every visual team ends up with the same pile of imperfect photos: a listing shot with someone's laundry in the corner, a product photo with a wrinkled shirt, a car photo dulled by dust on the lens, an exterior shot taken under flat afternoon light. Fixing any of it usually means a re-shoot, a design queue, or hours in an editing tool your team doesn't have time to learn.

We get it. None of these problems are complicated on their own, but they add up fast when you're managing hundreds or thousands of images. AI Image Edit applies real estate, product, and automotive edits, plus lighting fixes, right from the URL, so you can clean up a single photo or an entire library without touching a design tool. Here's a look at what's new.

Every Listing Photo, Show-Ready

Listing photos routinely work against the sale: clutter in the frame, a dead lawn, a flat gray sky, or a room that's hard to picture furnished. AI Image Edit declutters a room, stages it in one of 12 styles, brightens the sky, restores the lawn, and cleans up the exterior, each as a single parameter added to the image URL. Apply it across your entire listing library at once, not one photo at a time.

The same empty apartment living room redecorated into eight different interior styles, Midcentury, Vintage, Scandinavian, Bohemian, Industrial, Modern, Traditional, and Coastal, shown side by side, with four more styles available.
One empty room, twelve styles, each from a single parameter value.

Catalog Photos That Actually Match

Catalog photos get shot by different people at different times, so backgrounds, shadows, and finishes rarely match from one listing to the next. AI Image Edit isolates a clean white background, smooths fabric wrinkles, resets a watch's hands to a cleaner time, and adds a consistent drop shadow, or swaps in a lifestyle background, automatically, for every image in the catalog.

A coffee bag, a shirt on a hanger, and a watch, each shown before and after an AI Image Edit preset: packaging cleanup, wrinkle removal, and watch hand repositioning.
One consistent look across the whole catalog, no reshoot required.

Dealer Photos Without the Dust

Dealer-submitted vehicle photos come in with dust, water spots, fingerprints, and backgrounds that don't match the rest of the lot. AI Image Edit cleans up paint imperfections and isolates a studio background, right from the URL.

Three vehicle photos shot in different locations converted to a matching studio background, next to three vehicle photos with dust, mud, and water spots removed from the paint, shown in a dealership catalog layout.
Every vehicle photo looks studio-shot, regardless of who took it or where.

Change the Light Without Reshooting

A photo shot at the wrong time of day, or under the wrong white balance, is hard to fix without redoing the shoot. AI Image Edit corrects white balance or converts any photo between day, night, golden hour, and blue hour lighting, right from the URL.

The same car, home exterior, and skyline interior view converted between golden hour, blue hour, and daytime lighting.
It works on top of every other edit in this release, and on any photo on its own, from a car to a building to an interior shot.

AI Image Edit works the same way as every other Imgix transformation: one URL parameter, no separate tool, no new workflow to learn.
