PixADair: AI Astrophoto Tools
Night Sky Photo Editor
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
PixADair is a multi-tool astrophotography editor powered by AI from Topaz Labs. Denoise, sharpen, upscale, and crop — then compare every change at full resolution.
Shooting the night sky means pushing your camera to its limits — high ISO, long exposures, and the noise that comes with them. PixADair gives you a complete toolkit to bring out the detail hidden underneath.
FOUR AI-POWERED TOOLS
Chain edits together in any order — each step is saved so you can go back and branch off at any point.
Denoise — three models (Normal, Strong, Extreme) tuned for different exposure levels
Sharpen — five modes including refocus, lens blur correction, and motion blur recovery
Upscale — enlarge 2x, 4x, or 6x with three fidelity models
Crop — frame your composition with region-matched before & after comparison
BEFORE & AFTER COMPARISON
Inspect every pixel. The interactive slider lets you drag between any edit step in full screen. Pinch to zoom up to 10x and pan around to compare fine detail across your entire edit history.
FLEXIBLE OUTPUT
Export as PNG, JPEG, or TIFF — whatever your editing workflow needs. Save directly to your photo library with one tap.
YOUR KEY, YOUR CONTROL
PixADair uses a bring-your-own-key model with the Topaz Labs API. There's no subscription, no account to create with us, and no middleman between you and the AI. You pay Topaz directly for only the processing you use — nothing more. Your images are sent straight to Topaz and never touch our servers.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Add your Topaz Labs API key in settings (once)
2. Import a photo from your library or share it from any app
3. Chain tools — denoise, sharpen, upscale, crop — in any order
4. Compare edits with the interactive slider, then save
Processing happens in the cloud, so your device stays fast and responsive.
