About Image2Layer
Image2Layer processes JPG, PNG, or WebP files and separates them into editable layers such as subjects, objects, text, shadows, and backgrounds. The tool reconstructs hidden areas behind removed elements so layers remain usable for design edits. Outputs include layered PSD files for Photoshop, transparent PNG layers in a structured ZIP package, or individual PNG files. It supports both detailed and targeted layer separation modes, with a maximum of 10 layers per image. Users can preview results and split mixed layers further after generation. The platform is designed for creative workflows including design revisions, product marketing, animation, game scenes, and client handoffs.
