What is Clipdrop?
Clipdrop is an AI-powered image editing suite developed by Stability AI, the team behind Stable Diffusion.

A Suite of Image AI Tools
Each Clipdrop tool is purpose-built and production-quality. Cleanup removes unwanted objects seamlessly. Relight adds realistic studio lighting to portraits and products.
