AI masking

Using a powerful AI selection algorithm in Photomator, you instantly select and edit specific areas of an image. Photomator automatically identifies common elements in photos such as people, backgrounds, and skies, and makes a precise selection of those areas for you, allowing you to start making edits right away. This is especially useful for making edits to specific areas of a photo while keeping everything else untouched. For instance, in landscape photos with a bright sky, you can select only the sky and reduce its brightness without affecting the rest of the photo.
