Topaz Photo AI

Topaz Photo AI is an AI photo enhancer that sharpens blurry images, removes noise, recovers faces, and upscales photos automatically. It analyses each image, detects the problems — noise, soft focus, low resolution — and applies the right corrections, with manual controls for photographers who want to fine-tune the result.

Key Features

• AI sharpening, denoising, and upscaling
• Face recovery for portraits
• Super Focus for badly blurred images
• Batch processing for whole shoots
• Works standalone or as a Lightroom plugin
• Manual controls to fine-tune AI results

How it works

The tool is popular with photographers who shoot in difficult conditions: high-ISO night shots, old scanned photos, or images that need a large print. Its face recovery and Super Focus features can rescue shots that look unusable, and it works as a standalone app or as a plugin for Lightroom and Photoshop.

Important pricing note: Topaz ended one-time perpetual licences in late 2025 and moved to subscription pricing, so the old $199 one-time deal no longer applies. There is a free trial but no permanent free plan. Check the official site for current subscription prices before buying.
