Retouch4me Adams: the unifying interface for retouching plugins by Jose Antunes – ProVideo Coalition

Named after two world-famous trailblazers in the photography world, Ansel Adams and Harry LeRoy Adams, the new software from Retouch4me is the interface photographers asked for. 

If you use multiple plugins from Retouch4me, a leading provider of AI-based photo and video editing solutions, you’ve also wanted to have a way to move from one to the other without having to close and open plugins to move from, for example, removing dust to giving volume to a portrait. Well, there is now, as the company announced Retouch4me Adams, which serves as an interface for batch retouching with Retouch4me AI-based plugins.

The process is simple: you create a new project in the software, and all the images from the folder selected for the project appear in Adams, ready to be edited in any of the Retouch4me plugins you own. With Adams, professional photographers and retouchers can significantly reduce the time spent on large-volume retouching. The application’s name honors, Retouch4me says, “two world-famous trailblazers in the photography world: Ansel Adams and Harry LeRoy Adams.”

“Retouch4me Adams bridges the rich history of photo editing with the limitless capabilities of AI,” said Oleg Sharonov, founder and board member of Retouch4me & 3D LUT Creator (RELU OÜ). “We’re honoring Ansel Adams, who revolutionized photo editing with his Zone System for optimal exposure, and Harry LeRoy Adams, an inventor of the photo editing machine. Retouch4me Adams continues this legacy of innovations, taking image retouching to a new level with neural networks. It is a seamless blend of historical heritage and revolutionary technologies, both in name and function.”

Automated Culling coming to Adams

Photographers who need to deal with lots of images will also be glad to know that Retouch4me Adams will allow them to go through their photos using a seamless selection process! Automated Culling, still in Alpha, is coming to the software, and while it is still in development, it promises to revolutionize how you sort and organize your photoshoots.

Key features of Retouch4me Adams (v1):

1. Batch processing: Retouch4me Adams automates photo editing with the ability to process an unlimited (!) number of images at once.
2. Seamless integration: Users can now access all Retouch4me AI-based plugins in a native environment from a single, centralized hub. This eliminates the necessity of using third-party apps like Photoshop.
