    Film stock, grain, glitch, colour grade and more you can stack and tune

    Record photos or video from your Mac camera straight into a layer

  • Layer stack

    Mix image, text, video and live camera layers, group effects, and save or share them as a preset

  • 3D Beta

    Import PLY meshes and Gaussian splats as a 3D layer in the stack

  • 25+ presets

    Browse ready-made looks and drop them onto your stack

  • Masking

    Mask people, gradients and shapes so effects only hit the parts you want

  • Timeline

    Animate with keyframes and tracks so effects change over time

  • Batch Apply

    Preview one look on many images or videos, then export the set

  • Command line

    Install the CLI and run the same effects from your terminal or scripts

  • Export formats

    Write stills as PNG and motion as MP4 when you are done

Changelog

Version 1.12

Bring 3D into the stack, and grade through soft mattes. Import PLY meshes and Gaussian splats as a beta 3D Object layer. Mask Gradient adds linear and radial Lightroom-style mattes, and Mask Person now follows stack order.

  • 3D Object (Beta): import PLY meshes and Gaussian splats as a scene layer.
  • Metal rendering with depth-sorted splat compositing and off-thread orbit sorts.
  • 3D Object is Pro: unlock to add, replace, duplicate, or paste scene layers.
  • Mask Gradient: linear and radial soft mattes with Focus or Cutout, invert, and dials for start, end, centre, and rotation.
  • Mask Person follows stack order: it segments what is underneath and scopes effects above it.

Version 1.11

Cut, bend, and tile with shapes. Shape Mask, Shape Warp, and Shape Tiles bring circles, stars, rings, and more into the stack. Export PNG frames from timeline and video, mask people in the camera, preview looks in the gallery, and apply stacks from the command line.

  • Shape Mask: die-cut or fill with circle, rounded box, n-gon, star, ring, or capsule.
  • Shape Warp: pinch, inflate, swirl, or stretch through the same silhouettes.
  • Shape Tiles: square, hex, and brick apertures over the plate.
  • Shape Warp and Mask cut-outs composite over the artboard so gaps are not solid black.
  • Export PNG Frames for timeline and video stacks.
  • Person mask for the live camera layer.
  • Gallery previews for effects and presets.
  • Pro-gated CLI to apply stacks, person masks, and preset retunes.
  • Title bar fixes for double-click zoom and top-corner resize on Mac.
  • Minor preset fixes, including Glitch and gradient map.

Yes. Effects run on your device using Metal, and your files never leave it. We do not upload your photos or video to our servers.
