Evoto 8.0 arrives with major updates

The AI-powered retouching suite launches across Evoto's ecosystem as the company marks 1.2 billion images processed by 1.2 million pro photographers in over 200 countries.

Four pillars of photo retouching

Evoto 8.0 focuses on more precise retouching, flexible framing, smarter culling, and repeatable workflows for photographers working with stills.

“"More precise retouching, more flexible framing, smarter culling, repeatable workflows."”

Story-based culling for events

A new Storyline Mode groups photos by chapters to build a narrative of the day, while General Mode groups images visually. Outliers stay unassigned for manual review.

Workflow automation for teams

Users can save entire workflows from import through export to reduce repetition. SDK integration lets larger production teams script workflows at scale.

Enhanced AI retouching tools

New features include precision freckles and acne retouching, face shadow removal, clothing moire removal, sweat stain removal, and generative background expansion.

Video portrait retouching arrives

Evoto Video 1.6 enables portrait retouching on video footage without manual keyframing. The technology is also available in DaVinci Resolve and Adobe Premiere Pro.

Video retouching features expand

Hair Shine tracks strands for consistency, Teeth Whitening masks and whitens without washing out, Facial Fullness adds subtle volume, and Color Match applies a reference image's look across a clip.

Asset Hub creator marketplace launches

Photographers can buy and sell AI looks, presets, backdrops, and skies. Creators keep 60% of net sales with no listing fees and can set their own prices.

“"A photographer's style might be the reason clients book them; this gives that same style a second way to generate income."”

500,000 dollar rewards pool for creators

Evoto offers $50 to creators when their first asset goes live, plus an additional $100 to the top 20 sellers by December 31, 2026. Total incentive pool is $500,000.
