Forget complex layers and manual brushing. With Pixelcut's AI tool, you can control the opacity of your images using simple instructions. Just upload your photo and describe the transparency effect you want to create. For example, you could type 'make the sky semi-transparent' or 'create a fade effect on the right side of the image.'

Unlock new creative possibilities by manipulating your image's transparency. Our AI opacity mask tool makes it easy to produce stunning visual effects. Blend images together for a double exposure look, fade the edges of a photo to draw focus to the center, or gently overlay text on a background. You can create subtle or dramatic results simply by changing your text prompt. It’s the perfect way to add a layer of sophistication and style to your graphic design projects, social media posts, or website visuals.

Create Artistic Blends and Fades

Our tool intelligently identifies the objects or areas in your prompt, whether it's a 'reflection,' 'background,' or a specific 'object,' and applies the opacity mask exactly where needed. This smart technology ensures clean edges and smooth transitions, saving you valuable time while providing the accuracy needed for high-quality edits.
