Picsart has officially launched an AI agent marketplace, which allow creators to 'hire' AI assistants to help them with specific tasks, like resizing and remixing social content, or editing product photos.
The AI-powered design platform — with over 130 million worldwide users — said: "Picsart will introduce more specialised agents each week, but to start, creators can work with four different agents: Flair, Resize Pro, Remix, and Swap."
Picsart founder and CEO Hovhannes Avoyan, in a statement, said: "Creators have been stuck as the operator of every workflow — the one doing, not deciding. Our Agents change that relationship — you set direction, the agent builds a plan using real data, you approve, it executes."
What's new in Picsart update?
Picsart update brings new AI agents, which are set to improve creators' platform experience. They will be able to access these AI agents:
- Flair agent: This AI agent is the most sophisticated of the bunch, integrating with Shopify to act as an assistant for online store owners. The agent analyses market trends to make recommendations for how a shop could improve, like suggesting it edit product photos to look more cohesive.
- Resize Pro agent: This AI agent can easily resize images and videos for the recommended dimensions on various different platforms, but it uses AI to generatively extend the frame if the original media isn’t conducive to a certain size.
- Remix agent: It invites the creator to describe a style, like 'vintage film', 'watercolor', or 'cyberpunk' and edit an existing photo library to fit within that theme, while the agent feature allows users to change the backgrounds of photos in bulk.
“As agents extend to messaging apps creators already use, that conversation happens anywhere — at your desk or from the subway,” said Avoyan.
It is important for creators to note that like many other AI tools, Picsart offers a free plan with a few AI credits each week, but users can get significantly more capacity when paying for premium subscriptions, which start at about $10 per month when billed annually.
