Company that makes standalone noise reduction, image upsizing and sharpening tools that are also built into an AI Photo app in a simplified form, which chooses and applies optimum enhancements via AI.
At the moment, Topaz’s Cloud processing is optional. You can still use your own computer for processing. But will there come a point where Topaz’s AI processing becomes so ‘powerful’ that it can only be done in the cloud? Convenient, huh?
Verdict: 3.3 stars $199 is a lot of money to pay for a simplified AI photo fixer and there’s not even a trial version, just an ‘unconditional’ money back guarantee. When it works, Photo AI is good, even spectacular, but the image and its problems have to fall within its window of fixability. Photo AI is also slow, over-aggressive with noise reduction and can only fix the right sort of blur.
