MyEdit
MyEdit is a freemium editing service available in a web browser and Android and iOS apps. It provides generative editing, layers and masks, and batch editing for up to 150 items. The Free plan costs nothing and includes 5GB of storage plus 3 free credits per day. Three other plans are listed: Audio Pro includes 360 bonus credits per month and 50GB of cloud storage; Creator Pro includes 500 bonus credits per month and 50GB; Studio Pro includes 800 bonus credits per month and 100GB. MyEdit is the maker named for the service, headquartered in New Taipei City, Taiwan, and founded in 1996. Browser access and mobile apps provide the same stated platform coverage, while batch processing handles multiple items in one operation. The service therefore combines generative tools and layered editing with a free entry tier and plans that vary by monthly credits and storage.
