AKVIS SmartMask is a time-saving and user-friendly selection software that simplifies selection tasks. Spend less time selecting objects and more time on creative pursuits.

With AKVIS SmartMask, you can select objects with both soft and sharp edges, including fluff, hair, fur, tree branches, glass, or even a transparent veil with just a few clicks. In addition, the program lets you remove unwanted color shades left on the cutout object by the environment.
AKVIS SmartMask comes with two processing modes: Auto mode, which provides a powerful algorithm for automatic recognition of areas, and Manual mode, which offers a set of smart and helpful brushes to touch up any results that need additional attention.
The software's intuitive interface guides you through the process, making it easy to use even for beginners. In Auto mode, you just use the blue pencil to draw a line inside the object you want to select and then the red pencil to create lines outside the object to define the areas that should be cut out. Then, the program accurately interprets your intentions and intelligently selects the area you want.
For more complex images, AKVIS SmartMask offers a Quick Selection tool, which can select regions automatically with just a few clicks. Additionally, when an object stands against a background of a similar color range or its edges are uneven, you can use the touch-up brushes, such as the Magic Brush and Background Eraser, to refine the selection.
Overall, AKVIS SmartMask is a tool that is not only straightforward but also fun to use. It removes the dullness of image manipulation and turns it into a fun and entertaining task. If you are looking to work with images, AKVIS SmartMask is a must-have software for you!
