What is Adjust AI?
Adjust AI leverages machine learning to analyze and transform ordinary photos into lively, vivacious images that would normally require time-consuming, manual adjustments. Adjust AI is the fastest way to achieve ultimate clarity, detail, contrast, and an eye-catching aesthetic with minimal user input.
What should I use it for?
What are Topaz Clarity and Topaz Detail?
TOPAZ CLARITY
Topaz Clarity is the modern version of the Contrast slider, with better technology and better results. Topaz Clarity intelligently enhances contrast and clarity using proprietary technology that eliminates the common problems of artifacts and halos. With Clarity, you can quickly manipulate your macro, midrange, and overall contrast without halos or noise, all while maintaining a natural feeling and tonality in your image.
TOPAZ DETAIL
Topaz Detail takes a fundamentally different approach to detail enhancement. Instead of haphazardly increasing edge contrast, Topaz Precision Detail carefully figures out which parts of your image are “detail” and which are not. Topaz Detail then lets you independently adjust small, medium, and large amounts of detail inside the shadows and highlights of your image. The boost controls are used to refine the smaller (or weaker) small, medium and large details and are relative to the settings of their corresponding detail sliders. The higher the setting of the detail slider is the more intense the effects of the boost slider will be. You will generally see more details (in number) affected when you adjust the boost sliders.
Occasionally you may notice that in the process of enhancing detail your image may appear slightly grainy or noisy. This occurs because the smallest details present in your image are being enhanced and begin to stand out more. To counteract this, simply lower the Small Boost slider and it will remove the noise-like details and smooth out your image in a pleasant way. You can easily add the appearance of depth to your image by increasing the Large Detail slider; this can also intensify shadow areas.
What File Types are supported by Adjust AI?
Supported files types:
- .png
- .tiff
- .jpeg
What Color Profiles are supported by Adjust AI?
Adjust AI supports all major RBG color profiles. It does not support CMYK at this time.
What about RAW File Types?
Topaz Labs AI products support many different kinds of RAW file types, such as DNG (digital negative), and camera-specific files, such as NEF, ARW, and ORF files. However, many of these files contain data that our products may not know how to read yet.
Some RAW files can be used in the software. We use third-party libraries in our software to display RAW images. Due to this, there can be some RAW files from certain camera types where you might see some conflicts.
If you see something odd in the image color, desaturation, or overall display of the RAW files, we suggest converting the images to TIFF. Similar to RAW files, TIFF files contain plenty of data for editing and are compatible across a broad range of programs where RAW files may have conflicts.
Please note, we are continuing to make improvements to our RAW file processing.
When should I use Adjust AI in my workflow?
Is Adjust AI a plugin or standalone only?
Adjust AI can be used as both a plugin and a standalone.
How do I use Adjust AI as a plugin with my Host Editor?
See our Host Editor Guides section
Why does it take so long for Adjust AI to process?
Adjust AI uses resource-intensive AI technology that inherently takes a long time to analyze and correct each image you process through the application. This technology makes multiple calculations for each pixel to intelligently modify the data in your image. This adds up to hundreds of thousands, sometimes millions of calculations that must be performed. That's a big tax on your computer system, so be patient!
