Templates are at the core of Luminar AI. The software analyzes your image and then recommends different styles and editing options via Templates. You can then select a Template and call it a day, or tweak every aspect of your image for a custom look.

Additional AI-powered tools include Composition AI, a new feature aiming to automate cropping, Accent AI, Sky Enhancer AI, Atmosphere AI, iris AI, Body AI, Face AI, Skin AI and more.
