Who is it for?
- Useful when a portrait needs retouching and a background change in the same editor.

Getting started
- Install the Windows, macOS or mobile app from the official AirBrush pages.
- Open a photo, use the Background panel to pick a color, texture or your own backdrop, and refine edges with the brush.
- Export the result and check hair, fine edges and any leftover halo at full size.
Decision points
- Choose it when portrait retouching matters as much as the cutout; for a quick browser-only cutout, compare dedicated web tools.
- Check the trial terms before relying on it for a batch of client photos.
Limits
- The official page advertises a 7-day free trial but does not state export size, watermark or account rules; confirm them in the app.
- Features can differ between the desktop and mobile apps, so test one photo before processing a set.
