What is Gradient?
Gradient is an AI photo editor for mobile devices that applies AI-powered changes to portraits and selfies. It can recolor hair, retouch skin, blur backgrounds, adjust skin tone, and apply filters or textures to photos. The app also includes face transformation features. These let you see yourself rendered as a historical portrait, matched to a celebrity lookalike, or visualized with different ethnic features. An animal lookalike tool generates a collage based on facial resemblance. Gradient is available on iOS and Android.

Real-World Applications
Editing selfies for social media is a common use for this AI photo editor. A person preparing a profile photo can retouch skin, blur the background, and apply a filter without switching between multiple apps. The celebrity lookalike and AI portrait features produce share-ready results that work well as posts or stories.
Someone curious about their ancestry or appearance may find the ethnicity estimate and AI face tools useful. This AI photo editor analyzes facial features and returns a visual result based on that data. The animal lookalike tool follows the same pattern and generates a collage automatically.
Photographers and content creators who shoot portrait work on mobile can use the beautification tools to speed up basic retouching. Hair recolor, eye resizing, and skin tone adjustment cover common portrait corrections. The AI photo editor handles these adjustments without requiring manual masking or layer work.
People who want stylized photos for personal projects can use the filters, textures, and AI portrait features to produce distinct looks. Film burn and lens flare textures give photos a specific aesthetic that presets alone may not cover. The fantasy features add AI-generated styles for more experimental results.
