ImageLayered turns flat images into named, editable layers. Precision mode decomposes up to 16 layers, results export as transparent PNGs, and a built-in AI generator creates new artwork. The core mod
Separate any image into editable transparent layers with AI. Extract subjects, text, objects, and backgrounds as individual RGBA layers.
Who it is for
Designers, developers, marketers and content teams who need to recover, edit or localize flattened images, or prepare transparent PNG elements for web and app d
Problem it solves
Flattened images lose their structure. Anyone who receives a flat PNG or JPG cannot edit individual elements, so teams waste time recreating assets from scratch or settling for cropped patches.
The solution
ImageLayered decomposes a flat image into individual, named layers automatically. You can inspect each layer, edit it, and export transparent PNGs — plus generate new layered artwork with the built-in AI generator.
What makes it unique
Layer decomposition goes up to 16 layers in Precision mode, layers come back named for direct use in design workflows, and the core model (Qwen-Image-Layered) is open source under Apache 2.0 — rare transparency for this kind of tool.

What do DR4, DR3 and the model difference mean?
DR4:
Ahrefs' newer model. It gives more weight to links from sites with organic search traffic and rates a subdomain on its own links.
DR3:
The previous model, shown in the Ahrefs app until 1 December 2026.
Model difference:
DR4 minus DR3 for the same domain. The models calculate differently, so this is not growth or a drop; the “since” lines compare each model with itself.
