## Overview
Topaz Photo is an intelligent image enhancement software designed to perfect photographs through AI-powered tools. It offers 11 AI-powered tools including denoise, sharpen, upscale, recover faces, adjust lighting, balance color, and more. The software works as both a standalone application and as a plugin for major photo editing software like Photoshop, Lightroom Classic, Capture One, and Apple Photos. Users can choose from multiple enhancement options or use autopilot to start automatically.

The tool is built for photographers who need to fix issues with focus, noise, and image quality. Topaz Photo has processed over 2 billion images and leverages two decades of photo enhancement technology. The software offers both local rendering (keeping files private on the computer) and unlimited cloud rendering options. One limitation is that some users note it doesn't include all the comprehensive tools available in full-featured photo editors like Adobe Lightroom or Photoshop, though it excels at its specific enhancement functions.
