In their own words

PhotoDirector

PhotoDirector is generative-AI photo editing software for creating, enhancing, and transforming images. Edit by Chat turns plain-language requests into guided editing actions, while Quick Action suggests changes such as enhancement, background blur, color correction, and cleanup. Generative features include image generation, image-to-video, character motion swap, multi-face swap, AI try-on, and object replacement. For detailed editing, PhotoDirector supports RAW files, batch work, image organization, layers, masks, blending modes, compositing, exposure, HSL, curves, sharpening, and lens correction. Its stock feature provides access to iStock by Getty Images. PhotoDirector Essential is free without a time limit, but advanced AI tools and selected export options are restricted. Mac and Windows versions are separate products, and a license does not transfer between them. Internet access is required for activation, subscription access, online services, some features, and updates. The free plan requires no payment information.

RNI Films

RNI Films is an analogue-film photo app that simulates the look and colours of real film emulsions. It organizes filters by film type and provides an instant before-and-after preview in a minimal-tap editing workflow. Its Film Grain tool applies what the maker describes as genuine film grain rather than digital noise, and the maker characterizes its rendering and output as desktop quality. Photos can be shared to social networks from the app. RNI Films is offered for iOS, macOS, and Windows; the maker says an Android app is not viable at present. Android users can instead sync RNI Lightroom presets to Lightroom Mobile with an Adobe Creative Cloud subscription. A free plan is listed. Paid presets and styles support Adobe Lightroom, Photoshop ACR, and Capture One, with listed monthly plans from 82.00 USD to 192.00 USD. The maker is Really Nice Images LTD, which describes itself as a London-based art and technology company.
