The Peakloom editor - layers, AI tools and color controls around a photo

One app, from pixel to poster.

Start in AI Studio or on a blank canvas. Retouch with real layers, masks and AI, then lay out the post, poster or slide right beside it - with templates, fonts and your brand kit.

New · AI Studio

Edit a photo, or create from a prompt.

Dozens of AI tools for weather, light, restoration and product shots, plus ready-made ideas you finish by changing a few words. Every result stays editable.

Depth-aware AI

Golden hour, on demand.

Move the light, blur the background or add depth haze. Peakloom reads the scene in 3D on your machine.

AI Object Eraser

Select. Brush. Gone.

Pick the distraction, brush over it, and let AI rebuild the scene behind it - texture, light and all.

Generative AI

Imagine. Fill. Expand.

Paint in things that were never there. Stretch the canvas past the edge of the frame - and let AI finish the scene.

AI Remove Background

Scan. Separate. Transparent.

One pass finds the subject, keeps the fine edges, and leaves a clean transparent layer ready to design with.

Subject AI

Select. Lift. Layer.

Lift the subject to its own layer, then place type behind it in one click.

AI that runs on your own machine.

Most AI runs on your device. Cloud tools like AI Studio send only what is needed - deleted after, never used for training.

Drag the handle. See the work.

A Look is not a filter

A Look keeps every colour adjustment editable. A LUT is fixed and gives you one strength control.

Import your own .cube files and they sit alongside the built-in ones.

Bring your Lightroom library

Import .xmp, .lrtemplate, .zip or preset folders into a separate Imported library.

The controls behind the look

Keep grading, Black & White, calibration, texture, haze, vignette and grain controls live after applying a preset.

For people shipping apps

Three workspaces most photo editors don't have.

Dedicated workspaces remove the repeated setup from store artwork.

AppIcon Studio with the keyline grid and the live preview column
AppIcon Studio

Design the icon, export every size.

A 1024×1024 canvas with the keyline grid on top, and a preview column that tells you the truth about small sizes.

  • The preview dock draws 128, 64, 48, 32, 24 and 16 px at true 1:1, so you find out your glyph is unreadable before the store does.
  • See it on a real iPhone, Mac and Android home screen, not floating on a swatch.
  • Exports an AppIcon.appiconset with its Contents.json, an .icns for macOS, the full Android density set, and favicon.ico plus a web manifest.
  • iOS squircle, circle, rounded and square masks, an appearance-aware dark variant, and an Android safe-zone check before you export.

Screenshot Studio with six designed iPhone panels on one canvas
Screenshot Studio

Store screenshots, art-directed.

Drop your app screens in, pick a template, and get an upload-ready set in every size the store asks for.

  • 25 store size targets - iPhone 6.9", 6.5", 6.3" and 6.1", five iPad sizes and Apple Watch in portrait and landscape, Android phone, and four Mac App Store sizes.
  • Device frames are drawn as vectors, not bitmaps, so they stay sharp at any canvas scale. Up to ten panels on one canvas.
  • Twenty designed templates with their own type pairing and palette. Shuffle the colours, or pull them from your app icon.
  • Exports into correctly named folders - iPhone-6.9, iPad-13-Landscape - so the upload is drag and drop.

Stock Photos

Free photography, already inside.

Search Pexels, Unsplash and Pixabay from the Start Hub and drop a result straight onto the canvas.

  • Three providers behind one search field, with your recent searches kept and an infinite masonry grid.
  • Click a photo and it lands on the canvas as a layer. No download folder, no re-import.
  • The photographer's credit is on every tile and stays clickable, because that is what the providers' terms require - not something you have to remember.

Batch ProcessPro

Build the recipe once. Run the folder.

Build a step-by-step recipe, preview it on a queued file and run it locally without AI credits.

Order is part of the recipe

Drag steps into order. Resize then remove a background, or reverse it, and see the difference.

See it before you commit

Preview the real pipeline on a queued file while you tune it.

Recipes travel

Save recipes, reuse them or share clean JSON without local output paths.

One bad file doesn't end the run

Failed files get a reason while the queue continues. Stop anytime without losing completed output.

Batch stays local and credit-free. Use MCP when an agent needs to edit the open document.

See agent automation

MCP Connection

Connect your AI to Peakloom with MCP.

MCP lets Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Codex edit and render the open Peakloom document locally.

Before you download

Questions people actually ask.

Is Peakloom really free?

Yes. The editor, every AI feature that runs on your own machine, and Batch Process are all free - Batch runs entirely on your machine too, so it costs no credits. Free exports carry a small watermark in the corner. Pro removes it and unlocks cloud-generative tools. Plans and prices are on the pricing page.

Do my photos get uploaded anywhere?

Most editing AI stays on your machine, including background removal, subject selection, object erase, restoration, local upscaling, colorization, depth and face detection. The cloud tier of Magic Layer, generative tools and AppIcon Studio's AI Icon send only the inputs required after you explicitly run them.

Can it open my Photoshop files?

Yes. PSD import keeps layers, adjustment layers, layer effects, editable text and smart objects, and it is free. Exporting back to PSD is part of Pro.

Do I need an account?

Not to download it, and not for the editor or any of the on-device AI. You sign in only for Pro features, so your purchase and your AI credits stay attached to you.

Will it run on my Intel Mac?

Yes. Peakloom needs macOS 13.3 Ventura or later and runs on both Apple silicon and Intel. One background-removal engine, the fastest one, uses Apple's own vision framework and needs macOS 14 on Apple silicon; the other engines run everywhere.

Is there a Windows version?

Yes. Peakloom 1.0.326 runs on Windows 10 64-bit or later.

Are the AI models a huge download?

Nothing ships pre-bundled. Each model downloads only when you first use the feature that needs it, and the app shows you the exact size before it starts. They range from about 5 MB to just under a gigabyte for the highest-quality background removal.

Does it work offline?

Yes. The editor and on-device AI work without a network. The cloud tier of Magic Layer, generative tools and AppIcon Studio's AI Icon need a connection.

Does it open camera RAW?

Yes. Peakloom supports 15 RAW extensions across Canon, Nikon, Sony, Fujifilm, Panasonic, Olympus, Pentax, Samsung, Leica and Adobe or Apple ProRAW.
