Many photo editing apps have adopted artificial intelligence to assist users like you in editing, enhancing, and producing high-quality visuals. Retouch4me stands among them. It strives to replicate the work of professional retouchers through AI plugins, making the final photo appear as if it was edited by a human retoucher instead by a machine, with the advantage of preserving the original skin texture. It can transform standard headshots into refined portraits, healing minor skin problems like blemishes, uneven skin tone, large pores, etc.

The AI functions under the hood of the retouching plugins. Each plugin represents a step in the process of a professional retoucher's work. The AI plugins are individually trained for the specific tasks like smoothening skin problems, adjusting the skin color, or mattifying oily areas. The neural network of the software is trained to follow the same steps of the retoucher to produce similar results.

The retouching software helps users to edit multiple photos simultaneously with the flexibility to function both as a plugin for Photoshop and as a standalone application. There are no complex menus, making the standalone app easy to use and navigate.

Retouch4me also recognizes the importance of preserving the original file so users can work with layers separately when refining photo subjects. This also ensures no data is lost during the editing process, since users can always return to the original file.
