A browser-based photo editor delivers professional-grade image manipulation without downloads or subscriptions. Built solo by Ivan Kutskir starting in 2012 as a side project, the tool supports PSD, XCF, Sketch, and RAW file formats with layers, masks, filters, and advanced selection tools rivaling desktop software. Growth came organically through word of mouth and consistent feature additions over a decade. The editor now generates approximately $250k per month in revenue, monetized entirely through non-intrusive Google AdSense ads served alongside the free tool.
