Turn any image into editable layers

About Magic Layers

Magic Layers is an AI-based tool that splits a single PNG or JPEG image into multiple editable visual layers. Users upload an image and can optionally specify which elements to separate, such as text, backgrounds, or decorations. The tool returns each element as a named transparent PNG, along with its position in the original image. This service is designed for those who need to repurpose or edit flattened images without access to the original project files. Pricing is based on the number of layers generated, with both monthly plans and credit packs available. Magic Layers works with standard creative software that supports transparent PNGs.

Best for: designers, marketers, content creators, e-commerce sellers, game developers
