AI Remove 1.2.0 keeps generative edits RAW
This unofficial, MIT-licensed LightCraft plug-in runs object removal locally with SAM 3, LaMa, SDXL, and FLUX, then writes the result back as an editable RAW DNG. Version 1.2.0 improves long-object sharpness, full-resolution redraws, sky handling, and workflow controls.
AI Remove tackles the biggest weakness of generative photo editing: losing the RAW workflow. Its local, model-flexible pipeline is compelling, though substantial model downloads, hardware requirements, and unofficial integration status limit its immediate mainstream appeal.
- –Long removals such as poles, cables, and railings now retain more detail.
- –Full detail redraws regenerate the selected variant at the photo’s full resolution.
- –The plug-in converts generated pixels back into linear camera data and re-mosaics them with matching sensor noise.
- –Local processing keeps photos private and supports Windows, macOS, Linux, multiple GPU backends, and an MCP server.
- –Multi-gigabyte model downloads and non-commercial licenses for some models remain meaningful tradeoffs.
