Skylum software product updates and transitions
Overview
Skylum has announced the discontinuation of its AI portrait editor, Aperty, effective November 4. A company spokesperson stated the decision allows the firm to focus resources on its flagship product, Luminar, noting that Aperty’s capabilities have been integrated into the latter. While existing users may continue using the app, it is not expected to receive further updates.
Concurrently, Skylum has expanded its Luminar ecosystem with the launch of Luminar on Web. This browser-based version supports RAW processing and AI-driven tools such as sky replacement and photo restoration. The company offers various pricing tiers, including a free basic version and paid packages ranging from $69 for full web access to $199 for the Max version, which includes an asset library.
