ON1 Photo RAW vs Remini

ON1 Photo RAW is paid desktop software for photographers who want RAW processing, editing, organization and export in one application. It supports batch editing, layers, masking, AI retouching and cloud sync, and browses files where they are stored while providing tags, albums, stacking and AI keywording. Built-in AI tools include NoNoise AI, Resize AI, Generative Erase, Sky Swap AI, Restore AI and Brilliance AI. Super Select AI, subject and background masks and AI depth masks target specific areas. Optional connections are listed for Photoshop CC, Photoshop Elements, Lightroom Classic, Apple Photos and Affinity Photo; MAX adds Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom plugins. Restore AI uses cloud processing, and ON1 says submitted photos are not used to train models. The standard edition installs on two computers, MAX on three, and subscriptions on up to five, depending on plan. A 30-day trial is available, with no free plan.

Remini enhances photos and videos, with tools to improve resolution and colors, unblur and denoise images, restore old photos, enlarge pictures, and enhance faces and backgrounds. Its video tool can improve quality and size by up to 2x. The service also generates AI portraits: AI Photos uses 8–12 training images and produces portraits using model images, poses, and styles. AI Photos is available in the iOS and Android mobile app, while Remini Web offers photo enhancement. Remini also describes an API integration for adding its photo and video enhancement technology to another product. Access is freemium, with limited free use and additional benefits depending on the paid plan. Subscription offers vary by user and over time, so current prices appear in the app paywall rather than a fixed price list. Free trials are not always available, may exclude some tools, and can be used once. The maker says uploaded images and videos are not used to train its AI unless users opt in. For enhancement, uploaded and enhanced media is deleted one day after upload or enhancement, and face data used for enhancement is deleted immediately afterward.
