Imagen

What is Imagen?

Imagen is an AI post-production service for photographers. It learns your editing style from past work through AI Profiles, applies it to entire galleries, and adds AI culling that groups look-alike shots and helps pick out the strongest frames. Extra AI tools handle straightening, cropping, masking, denoising, skin smoothing and object or hair removal. Lightroom Classic users can also back up photos with a Cloud Storage plan. Imagen offers three editing plans: Pay-as-you-go, which has a monthly base fee plus a charge for each photo edited; Limitless, a flat fee for unlimited editing, AI tools and culling for individual photographers, listed at US$179 / month billed annually; and Business, with custom pricing for studios. New users can start with 1,000 free edits and no credit card.
