What's the difference between Generative tools and AI tools?
Luminar Neo has a variety of photo editing tools, and most of them are AI-powered. You’ll find such tools as Sky AI, which allows you to easily replace a sky in no time, or Enhance AI, a photo enhancer which applies a dozen improvements in one slide. The Generative tools analyze your photos and generate new elements according to the content of your photo. Currently, Luminar Neo has three Generative tools — GenErase for erasing unwanted elements and seamlessly filling the gaps, GenSwap for swapping elements for other prompted elements, and GenExpand for expanding the scene beyond the edges of the frame.
How can I use Luminar Neo on a new device?
If you have a Luminar Neo subscription, you can use it on a second device by simply installing Luminar Neo and accessing it with the same Skylum account you’ve used on the first device. If you want to transfer your subscription to another device, you’ll need to reset your activations in your Skylum Account. Visit the "My Software" tab in your Skylum Account and check the number of available seats. If you wish to replace your seat with another device, the "Reset" buttons are available for each product you own. Click "Activations" and then "Reset activation" to remove a specific device or "Reset all activations" to remove all activations at once.
Note: It’s safe to reset all activations if you don’t know which device to remove. New device(s) will be added to the list as soon as you activate Luminar Neo on them and the old device(s) will be automatically added when you launch the app. Once you are done, press "Download" to install Luminar Neo on your new device.
What should I do if I want to use Luminar Neo on more than 1 or 2 devices?
You can always get additional seats by clicking the "Get Seats" button next to the "Activations" button in the “My software” tab in your Skylum account.

What is Luminar Neo? Is Luminar Neo the next version of LuminarAI?
Luminar Neo is an innovative image editor powered by AI technologies of the future that simplifies complex editing routines and enables creators to bring their boldest ideas to life. And enjoy it.
...And much more.
The new technologies and innovative user experience in Luminar Neo make creative image editing simple and fun.

This version will have even more editing power under the hood. Channeling your inspiration into mind-blowing photos has never been easier with all-new cutting-edge AI-powered tools that will add up to the already existing go-to collection of Luminar AI. Intelligent tools such as AccentAI, SkyAI (replaces the sky automatically and adds water reflections), SkinAI, Sky EnhancerAI, StructureAI (adjusts detail and clarity), BodyAI, AtmosphereAI(adds weather effects based on image depth reconstruction), Portrait BokehAI, and Supercontrast, as well as the upcoming virtual light source emulation, automated removal of power lines and dust spots, and many more, are industry-leading and are designed to provide satisfying results effortlessly.

What is LuminarAI?
LuminarAI is an all-new application and plug-in and the first fully AI-powered image editing software in the world.
While Skylum is well-known for building software that taps into artificial intelligence for great results, LuminarAI is entirely different.
We built LuminarAI with artificial intelligence at its core. Artificial intelligence saves you time and effort. Before, traditional editing software was outdated. It was time-consuming and hard to learn. It required effort and skills to get satisfying results. With LuminarAI, you can create great-looking photos much faster. It’s perfect for anyone, of any skill level.
While other companies use artificial intelligence as a catchphrase, LuminarAI is packed full of truly smart technology. LuminarAI features many AI tools that allow you to get more done in less time. Innovations like SkyAI, FaceAI, BodyAI, IrisAI, AtmosphereAI and more give your images a memorable style and a competitive edge. Without sacrificing quality, speed or creative options.
How to download and activate LuminarAI?

What are the system requirements for LuminarAI?
LuminarAI should work on your computer as long as it meets the following minimum system requirements.
For Mac:
Starting from Update 3, LuminarAI runs natively on the M1 chip.
For Windows:
Are third-party plug-ins supported? (including Aurora HDR and Luminar 4)
In our other applications, third-party plug-ins are supported and send back the processed image as a new layer.
One of the changes in LuminarAI is the switch from layers to a Local Adjustments tool and smart segmentation of our AI-powered tools. This is why there will be no third-party plugin support in LuminarAI. If you need to merge bracketed photos, we suggest using Aurora HDR in its standalone mode.
Can I use LuminarAI as a plug-in?
LuminarAI is a universal solution that can function both as a standalone editor and a plug-in.
Using LuminarAI as a plug-in, you’ll be able to bring creative and timesaving workflow to your host application. LuminarAI allows you to revolutionize the way you enhance photos but conveniently fits into your current workflow.
LuminarAI can be used as a plug-in or extension for:
Does LuminarAI handle RAW files?
