Envato adds AI editing to its 30M-asset stock photo library
Overview
Envato now lets users pick a photo from its library of more than 30 million artist-created assets and edit it with AI, according to posts on X by Elvis Saravia and Santiago.
The tools cover changing backgrounds, removing objects, adjusting lighting and extending images to new layouts before download, and Santiago says Envato is the company offering them. Users start from an existing photo rather than a text prompt alone.
Saravia says starting from a real photo gives better results than prompting from scratch, which he says usually produces generic images. Rohan Paul says the feature changes only the areas a user selects or describes, keeping the subject, framing and lighting of the human-shot photo intact. These are the authors' claims; the reports do not include Envato's own statement or test results.

Rohan Paul@rohanpaul_aiXEnvato's Edit with AI changes only selected parts of human-shot stock photosAIRohan Paul says Envato's "Edit with AI" starts from a human-shot stock photo and changes only the areas a user selects or describes. He argues this keeps the photo's subject, framing and lighting intact, unlike pure AI generation, which often invents everything at once and produces errors such as extra fingers.
