PhotoQuill

PhotoQuill is a browser-based AI photo editor that handles PSD documents with full layer support, masks, and blending modes. It runs locally in the browser using WebGPU, processing images on the device rather than sending them to remote servers. The tool emphasizes privacy and offline usability, with editing possible without creating an account and files remaining on the user’s device.

The editor targets designers, photographers, students, and creators who need a native-like Photoshop alternative that works in a web browser. It provides features for managing layers, applying non-destructive edits, and using AI tools to enhance images, all while maintaining local-first processing and fast performance.

PhotoQuill offers a set of built-in image conversion and editing capabilities, including AI image adjustments, background removal, color adjustments, and a range of filters. It supports direct editing of layered PSDs and preserves layer qualities during processing, aiming to deliver a professional workspace without requiring desktop software installation.

The product promotes itself as an in-browser solution with WebGPU acceleration, no sign-up required, and local processing for privacy. It supports working with PSDs, logos, templates, and typography, and provides conversion tools for common image formats, all accessible within the browser environment.
