Topaz Photo
A macOS image-enhancement app for denoising, sharpening, restoring focus, adjusting images, and upscaling.
About
Topaz Photo is a desktop image-enhancement application offered as both a standalone app and a plugin. Its tools use AI to help refine photographs, including denoising, sharpening, recovering faces, adjusting lighting and color, removing dust and scratches, and upscaling images. The official product page also describes focus restoration and image removal tools.
The product supports local rendering and cloud rendering. The Homebrew package installs the macOS application and associated plugin components; it is not Topaz Photo for Web, Topaz Photo for Mobile, or a subscription bundle.
- Use image tools such as Denoise, Sharpen, Recover Faces, Adjust Lighting, Balance Color, and Upscale to address different photo issues.
- Work with Topaz Photo as a standalone application or as a plugin in supported photo-editing workflows.
- Choose local or cloud rendering, as described on the product page.
Install on macOS 12 or later with brew install --cask topaz-photo. The supplied package is the Apple silicon arm64 installer. After installation, open Topaz Photo from Applications. The official page lists Photoshop, Lightroom Classic, Capture One, Apple Photos, and Affinity Photos among workflow options; it notes that Affinity Photos requires manual installation. No pricing or account terms are specified here.
