What is ClipDrop?
ClipDrop is an ecosystem of AI-driven image editing and generation tools. Originally created by InitML and later acquired by Stability AI (the creator of Stable Diffusion), the platform provides a complete suite of rapid utilities for designers, photo editors, and content creators who need to perform complex visual manipulations—such as background removal, unwanted object deletion, border expansion, and photo relighting—in seconds.
How it works
ClipDrop can be accessed via web browser, mobile apps, or as a Photoshop plugin. The platform runs deep neural network models in the cloud, including advanced Stable Diffusion models. The user uploads an image and selects the desired tool. For instance, with the "Cleanup" tool, you simply brush over an object or person, and the AI removes the element and fills in the background naturally without leaving marks.
Key Features
- Remove Background: Highly precise crop-outs of people or objects without the need for manual mask adjustments.
- Cleanup: Magic removal of watermarks, power lines, people, or unwanted texts from any photo.
- Relight: Add virtual 3D light sources over 2D photos, altering portrait colors and shadows realistically.
- Uncrop: Expand photo borders from vertical to horizontal, filling new areas logically using generative AI.
- Stable Diffusion Studio (Stable Doodle & Text-to-Image): Sketch simple drawings to turn them into high-fidelity digital art.
Available Integrations
ClipDrop's flexibility allows it to be integrated into various design environments:
- Official plugin for Adobe Photoshop.
- Public API for developers and e-commerce companies.
- Mobile apps for iOS and Android featuring an AR (augmented reality) camera to capture real-world objects and crop them directly onto your computer.
Who is it for?
- E-commerce Professionals who need to remove backgrounds and create clean product images at scale.
- Graphic Designers and Art Directors for rapid prototyping of visual layouts.
- Photographers looking to refine portrait lighting or remove blemishes without the complexity of advanced software.
