InPixio vs Luminar Neo

InPixio lets you remove backgrounds, erase objects, swap skies, and polish photos through a free online editor, a Windows desktop app, and a mobile app. Upload an image, click remove background, and the AI separates hair and fine edges without manual masking.

Where heavyweight editors assume you already know layers and masks, InPixio sells speed for ecommerce sellers and casual creators. The free web tools handle quick crops and background cuts, while paid plans unlock HD downloads and premium features across the same interface on desktop and phone.

The site cites more than 10 million users and targets small business owners, social sellers, and beginners who need product photos, transparent PNGs, and social-ready edits. You can edit in the browser instantly or download the Windows app for offline work.

Luminar Neo is a desktop photo editor for macOS and Windows that combines one-click AI adjustments with layer-based manual control. Sky replacement, portrait retouching, generative erase and expand, HDR merge, and noise reduction all live in one app, with optional Lightroom Classic and Photoshop plug-in support.

Where subscription editors lock you into monthly fees, Skylum sells Luminar as a perpetual license with 2 device activations. Generative AI tools and the asset library renew annually, but the core app stays yours after a single purchase, which suits photographers who edit in bursts rather than every day.

Landscape shooters, portrait photographers, and hobbyists use Luminar Neo for batch presets, RAW support across 1000+ cameras, and cross-device handoff from mobile to desktop on higher tiers. An AI Assistant suggests edits in 16 languages and opens the right tool when you ask how-to questions.
