How It Works
Color Palette Transfer
Transfer the color mood and palette from any reference photo to your source image. Like a one-click color grade.
White Balance Fix
Automatically corrects yellow, blue, or green color casts. Particularly effective on AI-generated images.
Photo Series Consistency
Match colors across a series of photos for consistent look in product photography, events, or portfolios.
Semantic AI Color Grading
An image model reads the color palette, tonal range and mood of your reference photo and re-grades your image like a professional colorist — without changing content, composition or detail.
- Understands scenes — no more color casts when the photos differ
- Transfers mood and tones like a film LUT
- Preserves image detail, texture, and sharpness
