ImageToLayers

What ImageToLayers is

ImageToLayers turns a flat image into separate visual layers that can be selected and edited individually. Upload a JPG, PNG, or WebP image, then adjust the composition or use AI to edit parts within the service. It can also estimate areas hidden behind overlapping objects; these are generated approximations, not recovered original pixels. Exports include PSD and ZIP files, and the contact page also describes individual transparent PNG exports. The maker presents workflows for designers, animators, ecommerce teams, and marketers. Fine details, heavy blur, extreme overlap, or unclear boundaries may need additional editing. ImageToLayers is available on the web and through an API: API access is included with Studio, while direct HTTP REST API access is available by request. Its MCP server supports compatible clients including Cursor, Claude Code, Codex, and Windsurf. The Starter Trial provides 20 one-time credits for selected workflows, with no subscription required. Creator costs $10 a month, billed $120 billed yearly, and Studio costs $30 a month, billed $360 billed yearly. The maker says uploads are not used to train its own models; third-party AI processing is subject to provider terms.

Who it suits

ImageToLayers suits designers, animators, ecommerce teams, and marketers who need to separate a flat image into editable layers. Studio may suit teams needing collaboration or API access, while Creator includes PSD and ZIP export and commercial use.

Limits

The Starter Trial has 20 one-time credits, covers Background Remover, Image Generator (Turbo), and Generate Background, and retains files for 7 days. Creator includes 12,000 credits per year and 30-day file history; Studio includes 36,000 credits per year and one-year file retention.
