Shaun Norton1h agoThanks Timothy, I'd love that! What kind of videos do you make, quick tool demos, or more how-to walkthroughs for small businesses? Happy to help with anything you need for it, or if there's a use case you think would show it off best (KB limits for job sites, or one photo cut for every platform), I'm all ears.

Shaun Norton1h ago Good question. Flat colour is where artifacts show up first.
Resizing: Six-IR resizes with the browser’s own high-quality smoothing, the same engine Chrome and Safari use for images. Shrinking a plain background shouldn’t add artifacts. Edges stay soft rather than jagged.
Saving is where artifacts can creep in, and you choose the format:
PNG is lossless, so plain colours stay perfectly flat. It’s the best choice for logos, graphics and screenshots.
JPG saves at 90% quality by default. On a plain background that’s usually clean, but JPG can always leave faint blocks or ringing around sharp edges. If you see any, raise the quality or switch to PNG.
WebP gives you a smaller file than JPG at the same quality, and it keeps transparency.
One thing to know: if you set a file-size limit (for example “under 100 KB”), Six-IR lowers the quality only as far as it needs to hit that limit. If that isn’t enough, it shrinks the dimensions too. A very tight limit is the case most likely to show ban

Shaun Norton1h ago Great question, and the right one to ask before you drop in personal photos.
Resizing stays on your device. Resizing, cropping, filters, background removal, upscaling, erasing and vectorizing all run in your browser. Those photos are never sent to our server. Smart crop finds faces with a model that also runs in your browser, so nothing about a face is sent either.
The only exception is the generative AI tools: Product scene, Expand, Edit with words, Face swap and Create. Those need a big AI model, so when you press one of those buttons, that photo and your words go through our server to our AI provider, fal.ai, and the result comes back. We don’t keep either one: the photo passes through memory and is never saved to disk. Face swap also asks you to confirm you have permission from everyone in the photos.
If you make an account and choose to save something to your library, we keep a small preview (480 px max, 60 KB max) plus your settings, not the full photo. You can delete it all a
