Whether you need to expand a tight crop or convert a vertical image into a horizontal one, this powerful tool uses AI to seamlessly extend your canvas, filling in the sides with precision.

The problem with the Generative AI feature is that you are not told whether it is done in-house on the computer or with cloud access which carries a cost. ON1 has been less than candid about this… Dylan your response please as you seem to be the point man these days. Thanks

I agree. I believe I’d heard that using the online regenerative experience required ‘points’ or ‘tokens’ or something of that nature. However, there will be some ‘on-device’ option, but it may not be as “good” as the online version. Dylan, I’d prefer to see videos that show us the difference between the two (showing results from each on the same image), as well as tell us the cost associated with using the online version. Please don’t make me disappointed in the on-device version and to feel that I HAVE to use the online one to get an image I’m happy with.

Did you try viewing it on YouTube?

I asked about this in a previous example of this feature posted on YouTube. In both this and the other example, the options “Stability AI” was chosen, which would (I assume) be done using a cloud service.
“I would be interested in seeing how the local generative crop feature works on an image like this (i.e. not using Stability AI)”
I got a reply from ON1 “We ran some tests using the local model and did get acceptable results after 1 or 2 tries.”. But I have not seen any examples.
I would like to see some comparative examples showing both “Stability AI” and “Local Gen AI”,.
This is VERY important for anyone entering photo contests. Many photo contests permit the use of editing features that are completely locally done – things like the Prefect Eraser and other “content aware” fill tools. The distinction is that allowed tools use content in the original image to fill in an area with similar material. But they ban the use of “generative fill” tools that fill in using content that never existed in your photo. Tools that allow (for example) you to say “fill in this area with a dog” when there is no dog in your original image are not permitted.
There are image tags that have been developed to flag use of the generative fill tools using content not in the original image as the source. No word from ON1 whether these tags are being used.

Hi Dylan, always enjoy your videos. This is a bit off topic but why are (usually scantily clad) women invariable used as models for the demos? Can we have a bit of balance please? Thanks!

BUT
I was hoping to use this generative crop after I have used transform and do not want to lose certain details as a result of the process eg after taking panoramas and transform.
I presume this would be a lot easier?
Would it automatically need the web though?
I take the point about customers needing to comply with competition rules and so we MUST know the devil in the detail here please.

8 comments and no response from ON1 who seems to be more concerned with promoting the new version than addressing questions about it!

I’ve been waiting for On1 to talk about the differences between using on-device AI and Stability AI editing, too. In the available videos, they seem to use the on-device option for the less complex issues, but they select stability AI for the others. But they never say why they’re choosing one or the other. It looks like they’re being a little too cagey about this.
Nor has there been any discussion of the relative speed between the options, how much the Stability AI will cost per image/per correction, what to do if Stability AI does not result in a satisfactory edit (free re-dos? additional charge for each try?).

I guess either the credits/costs are being finalized or ON1 feels that this subjects discussion is to the 2025’s sales deterrent.

Ok so the new 2025 is installed and ready to go. However, it sounds to me if you want AI on 2025 it is going to cost you. I didn’t realize this on purchase of On1 2025 and as far as I can tell On1 has never promoted tokens for sale. This is straight up fraudulent sales and I will be asking for my refund ASAP.
