ABOUT PIXELZ

At Pixelz, we help photo studio professionals beat deadlines by providing reliable, AI-powered retouching at scale.

Over the years, we’ve innovated in response to the industry challenges of fluctuating image volumes, manual workflows, and inconsistency in image quality. In trying to solve these issues, we developed the concept of S.A.W.™ – Specialist Assisted Workflows.

An idea of splitting the retouching workflow into many different production steps assisted by AI, machine learning, and various other methods of automation. A completely different way of handling retouching than anyone had ever done before.

The result is a retouching service offering unprecedented speed, consistency, and scalability. Together with delivering an outstanding customer experience, this is the reason we are trusted by leading fashion brands around the world.

We are a technology company powered by a talented and passionate team spread across 8 countries hosting a team of 500 people globally.
