Imagen launched its newest update, featuring Intelligent Studio, an adaptive post-production workspace, removes that order entirely. Photographers can cull first, start editing before making final selections, pull together a client preview from a handful of key moments, or move between all three as a project develops.

At the core of the new version is an editor that brings full manual editing directly into Imagen for the first time. Photographers can work with RAW and JPEG files, with the same range of manual control they’d expect from a dedicated editing program: tone and color, detail and clarity, lens and perspective corrections, and creative finishing touches. Every adjustment happens in the same workspace as the rest of the shoot, no exporting to a separate program to make a change or see the result.

Adobe Lightroom workflow remains supported. Imagen gives them another option: They can now complete more of the project inside Imagen, from the original files through final export. Photographers can also apply an additional AI Profile to selected images directly within the edit, giving them more control over how Imagen’s learned editing style is used across a gallery.

Imagen’s new Assistant lets photographers complete multiple steps from a single instruction. Instead of finding a set of images, selecting them, making an adjustment, and preparing them for review one step at a time, a photographer can describe what they want in plain language.

AI filters run on that same underlying intelligence, surfacing photos by people, scenes, or moments without manual tagging. A gallery that used to take an hour to sort through by eye can be narrowed to the handful of shots that matter in seconds.

“Photographers don’t all work the same way, and we don’t think their software should expect them to,” said Yotam Gil, co-founder and CEO of Imagen. “Imagen gives photographers the tools to build the process that works for them. They decide what they want to do themselves, where AI can help, and how the final work should look. Our job is to give them more control over that process, not define it for them.”

Imagen offers two plans: pay-as-you-go, with a $7 monthly minimum plus usage-based charges, and Limitless, a flat monthly rate for photographers who’d rather not track individual charges.
