What is Autoenhance.ai?

Autoenhance.ai is a platform for automatically editing real estate photos, provided by Autoenhance.ai Limited. It serves real estate photographers, agents, media companies, and PropTech products. It handles individual photos, multi-exposure HDR images, RAW files, and 360-degree images through web applications and APIs.

The platform focuses on carrying out standardized post-processing in bulk, rather than creating generic images. The output may result in changes to the sky, the scenery outside the window, the brightness, or the details of the scene; therefore, it is still necessary to verify the accuracy of the information and comply with local disclosure requirements before the property is published.

Main functions

Auto exposure, color, and white balance

The system analyzes different areas inside and outside the room, and adjusts exposure, shadows, highlights, white balance, and local colors. It is useful for correcting mixed lighting, color distortions, and insufficient brightness in dark areas, so as to ensure that the photos of a particular property maintain a consistent style.

• Image Relighting balances brightness, highlights, and shadows.
• White Balance identifies areas that should be white and adjusts the color temperature.
• Color Correction processes colors on a per-area basis, rather than making only global adjustments.
• The results need to be compared with the actual colors of the walls, floors, and furniture.

HDR multi-exposure synthesis

HDR Merging allows multiple photos taken with the same camera setup to be combined into a single image with a high dynamic range, thereby capturing both the shadows inside a room and the highlights outside. The API refers to a set of such exposed images as Brackets, and it organizes them using Order parameters for handling requests related to properties or customers.

• For multiple exposures, the camera position and composition should remain consistent.
• The platform can also handle individual RAW or regular images.
• Regardless of the number of exposures in a finished product, it usually earns 1 point upon download.
• Moving objects, reflections, and excessive differences in exposure can cause fusion artifacts.

Treatment of window views and sky

Window Pulls detects windows and creates masks to restore or enhance the details outside them; Sky Replacement allows replacing overcast skies with brighter ones. Both features improve the visual appearance of the image, but they also tend to alter the actual environment as it was during filming.

• Check whether the window frames, tree branches, antennas, and edges of the roof are in proper position.
• Do not use a fake sky to conceal important facts related to the weather or the landscape.
• The light direction in the indoor window view should be consistent with that of the external sky.
• When transparent disclosure is required, a version with AI modification markers can be exported.

Perspective and lens correction

Perspective Correction straightens the vertical lines of buildings and balances the composition between the interior and exterior; lens correction is used to reduce wide-angle distortion and edge warping. The system tries its best to preserve the view, but automatic cropping can still alter the scope of the image.

• Wide-angle indoor photography and building exteriors are the main use cases.
• After processing, check the proportions of doors and windows, the lines of the walls, and the depth of the rooms.
• Lenses that are not supported or have incorrect recognition may affect the correction process.
• Important MLS images should be compared with the original images to ensure that there is no misrepresentation regarding the size of the space.

RAW and high-resolution processing

The platform supports JPEG, WebP, TIFF, as well as various camera RAW formats, including DNG, CR2, CR3, NEF, RAF, ARW, RW2, and ORF. RAW files retain more information regarding brightness and color, which is suitable for professional post-processing; however, they take longer to upload and process.

• DNG currently requires a compatible version 1.4 or lower.
• There are compatibility issues with certain Nikon high-efficiency RAW files and Sony lossless compressed RAW files.
• For incompatible files, it is possible to first export them as JPEG using local tools and then upload them.
• The current payment options advertise an enhanced output of up to 6K.

360 Image Enhancement

360 Enhancements is used for virtual tours of properties; the system automatically identifies panoramic images that meet the requirements. The current document only supports isometric cylindrical projection, with a width-to-height ratio of 2:1 required.

• Other projection types need to be converted first.
• Check for any deformation in the seams, ceiling, floor, and around the windows.
• Panoramic image files are large; network and queue management should be planned for their batch upload.
• After enhancement, it should be reviewed in the actual virtual property viewing player.

Auto Privacy: Privacy obfuscation

Auto Privacy automatically identifies sensitive areas such as license plates and family photos and blurs them. It reduces the need for manual masking, but it may fail to detect certain objects or misprocess details related to properties.

• Before publishing, check each mirror, photo frame, screen, and the vehicles outside the window one by one.
• Sensitive content such as faces, identification documents, and house numbers still requires manual verification.
• Automatic blurring does not replace the authorization from the landlord, resident, or the person being photographed.
• Controlled storage and access permissions should also be applied when retaining the original image.

Restaging and generative modification

The Restaging feature of AI V5 allows for the removal of reflections of photographers and cameras from shiny surfaces; it can also illuminate a fireplace or darken a TV screen. The system is able to export a version of the image without these adjustments applied.

• Generative modifications may recreate pixels that are not present in the original image.
• Property platforms or jurisdictions may require the disclosure of AI modifications.
• Using a non-modified version preserves a more neutral set of delivery options.
• It is not possible to conceal defects in the house or fabricate information about the condition of its facilities by making modifications.

Export and quality settings

Enhanced images can be exported in JPEG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, and JXL formats, with the quality level adjustable from 40% to 100%. Users can also choose either a version that is not subject to restaging or a version labeled as AI MODIFIED.

• JPEG is suitable for MLS and conventional delivery.
• PNG is suitable for subsequent editing to avoid lossy compression.
• WebP and AVIF are suitable for websites, but it is necessary to check compatibility with browsers and client systems.
• JXL has a limited range of compatibility; it is necessary to verify that the receiving end supports it before delivery.

Input and output

Current price

All enhancements can be previewed for free; the preview version includes a watermark and no account or credit card is required. A fee is charged only when downloading the high-resolution final version without a watermark. The current page allows switching between dollars, euros, and pounds; the option displayed here is in US dollars at real time.

On the Essential page, the original price of $58 is displayed, along with a note indicating a 50% discount available for a limited time; therefore, the price of $29 cannot be considered the permanent price. The currency used, taxes, promotions, and any corporate contracts can affect the final amount, so it is necessary to refer to the settlement page for accurate information.

Points, downloading, and saving

• Uploading and generating watermark previews is free of charge.
• 1 point is awarded for each final enhanced image downloaded.
• Using multiple exposure brackets for the same finished product does not increase the download points.
• Subscription points can be carried forward for one month, with each point being valid for a maximum of two months.
• Essential currently indicates that images are saved for 45 days.
• Unused points will be forfeited when the account is canceled and cannot be refunded.

API and Web SDK

Autoenhance offers public API documentation and free test keys, enabling automatic uploading, grouping, enhancement, and downloading of images. The Web SDK provides a pre-built interface as well as cloud storage upload capabilities, making it suitable for quick integration into existing applications.

1. Register an API account and generate a key.
2. Store the keys on the server side; do not expose them in browser code or client logs.
3. Creating an Order represents a property, a customer, or a batch of transactions.
4. Upload individual images, or organize multiple exposures into brackets.
5. Submit enhancement options and poll or receive task status.
6. Download the completed file and record the points, version, and output location.
7. In a production environment, a stable version should be used; regression testing must be carried out before any upgrade.

• The API supports both a simple process for single images and an advanced HDR Brackets process.
• The API version allowed for an account can be specified through the request header.
• The limit specified in the public version documentation is 100,000 requests per day.
• Enterprises with high concurrency should still verify account limits, retry mechanisms, SLAs, and costs.

GitHub, SDKs, and open-source status

The official GitHub organization makes available API-Code-Examples, OpenRaw, Web-related examples, as well as various mirrors or forked projects; the original autoenhance-python repository has been archived. The official page also states that there are code examples for the API along with SDKs for common programming languages.

• Each warehouse requires separate verification of the license, maintenance status, and applicable version.
• The fact that the example code is open source does not mean that the cloud enhancement services or AI models are also open source.
• The upstream licenses for forked and mirrored repositories do not automatically apply to the Autoenhance product.
• Archiving Python projects should not be the preferred option for new production integrations.
• Production integration should be based on the current API documentation and the latest examples.
