Image2Layer uses AI to convert flat images into editable layer assets. Upload a JPG, PNG, or WebP image up to 24 MB and the tool separates subjects, objects, text-like graphics, shadows, and backgrounds into up to 10 independent layers in 60 to 120 seconds. Hidden areas behind foreground elements are rebuilt so you can move or remove objects without leaving empty gaps.

Export options include layered PSD files compatible with Photoshop, Photopea, GIMP, Affinity Photo and Krita, or transparent PNG layers in a ZIP package. Layers are raster images at your original image resolution up to about 4 megapixels. The tool is designed for designers, marketers, animators, game artists, e-commerce teams and content creators preparing assets for design revisions, product marketing, animation, game scenes and client handoff.

Shopper questions

What does an image to layers tool do?

An image to layers tool turns a flat JPG, PNG, or WebP into editable layer assets. Image2Layer separates subjects, objects, text-like graphics, shadows, and backgrounds into up to 10 layers in 60 to 120 seconds, then exports them as a layered PSD, transparent PNGs, or a ZIP.

How is image to layers different from background removal?

Background removal gives you one cutout and discards the rest. Image to layers separation keeps the whole picture with subjects, shadows, objects and text-like regions, rebuilds the background hidden behind them, and lets you remove a background as a choice after separation rather than settling for a single cutout.

Can I export image to layers results as a PSD file?

Yes. Every run exports as a layered PSD with the stacking order intact, and the file opens in Photoshop, Photopea, GIMP, Affinity Photo, and Krita. The layers are raster, so text arrives as an image of text rather than live type, and logos as pixels rather than vector shapes.

Can I use the results commercially and are there watermarks?

Yes, you can use them commercially, and no watermark is added on any plan, including free. You keep ownership of your uploads and of the results made for you, as far as the law allows. Make sure you have the rights to the images you upload.

What counts as one credit?

Layer separation uses 8 credits for each layer you receive. Targeted Layer is a flat 16 credits for the one target layer it extracts. Failed generations are not charged, and downloads from history do not cost extra.
