Smart exposure.

Restore dark photos without blowing out highlights, all while enhancing the detail that is often lost in dark areas of the photo. Use the Magic Bar to add just the right amount of light. We call it the Magic Bar for a reason.

 

 

 

Not your average Brightness.

Brightly won’t blow out photos like other apps and intelligently balances shadows and highlights. In the photo below, traditional brightness adjustments are shown in the leading photo editing software on Mac vs. Brightly Pro.

Light years ahead.

Brightly differs from other editing apps with its use of computer vision techniques to allow for photos to be restored in a way that is modeled after how the human eye actually sees light, color, and contrast. Other apps don’t come close.

Typical photo editors (even the expensive one below) can blow out unevenly lit photos.

 

Edit RAW.

With a high precision floating point tone-mapping pipeline, Brightly’s algorithms work on your wide color and RAW images, including Apple ProRAW, bringing Brightly’s incredible photo editing to professional workflows.

 Brightly Pro can be a perfect tool in the professional photographer’s workflow, providing quick corrections but powerful control when it’s needed. Brightly’s tone-mapping is based on cutting edge research that intelligently brings out detail, light, and color where it’s needed most.

 
 
 

Video too.

4K video correction, slo-mo, timelapse, and more. Brightly was designed specifically to handle video and smooths lighting changes over time. If your video’s lighting changes, Brightly adapts and keeps things looking great.

 With Brightly, you can focus on capturing the moment with your camera, without worrying about the long exposure issues typical of low light modes. That means your photos have less blur, and your videos can be captured in real-time and then restored later using Brightly’s intelligent algorithms.

 
 

Made for Mac.

Brightly Pro was designed from the ground up for Mac. It looks great on Ventura, is optimized for new Macs with Apple silicon, and supports system level integration for working with your photos and videos in the Photos app and beyond.
