About Image Layered

Image Layered (image-layered.app) is an advanced AI visual workstation purpose-built for illustrators, graphic designers, game artists, VTuber riggers, and creative studios.

Our core breakthrough is automated intelligent layer decomposition and occlusion inpainting: taking any flattened 2D image (illustrations, anime characters, UI mockups, photos, or graphic layouts) and separating it into cleanly isolated, transparent layers, packaged directly as real Adobe Photoshop (.psd) files and individual PNG archives.

Underlying AI Models & Technical Architecture

We believe in complete transparency regarding the artificial intelligence models and computing infrastructure powering our service:

1. Primary Layer Decomposition Engine

  • Model: ByteDance Seedream 5.0 Pro (bytedance/seedream/v5/pro/layerize)
  • Function: Semantic layer separation, visual depth estimation, and element boundary extraction.
  • Provider: Executed on enterprise GPU clusters through Fal.ai and Kie inference platforms.

2. Interactive Object & Element Segmentation

  • Model: Meta Segment Anything Model 2 (SAM 2)
  • Function: Zero-shot interactive object boundary identification for precision masking and customized part selection.

3. Contextual Occlusion Inpainting

  • Model: SDXL-based Inpainting Engine
  • Function: Reconstructs missing visual textures and details hidden behind foreground elements so each separated layer can be moved or hidden without leaving holes in the background.

4. Edge & Storage Infrastructure

  • Hosting: Cloudflare Workers edge computing.
  • Storage: Encrypted, private Cloudflare R2 object storage with automated retention and purging.

Content Standards & Trust & Safety

We hold our platform to the highest standards of safety and compliance:

  • Zero Tolerance for CSAM/CSAE: We strictly prohibit and automatically report any child sexual abuse or exploitation material to NCMEC.
  • Hate Speech & Discrimination Prohibition: No generation of violent or discriminatory imagery.
  • Reporting Violations: Users and rights holders can report violations to abuse@image-layered.app.
  • Full details are available in our Acceptable Use Policy and Terms of Service.
