What it is
EditGhost is a browser-based photo cleanup tool focused on removing localized distractions such as people, date stamps, wires, cords, reflections, and other small scene artifacts from travel, product, and real estate images. The interface centers on a simple upload-and-paint workflow that does not require a desktop editor installation.
The service uses AI inpainting to reconstruct background detail after a masked area is removed. The editor combines hand-painted masks, edge cleanup tools, and automated scene reconstruction to produce a cleaned image in a short workflow.
EditGhost accepts JPG and PNG uploads and provides built-in demo photos for testing. Users can preview before-and-after results, refine masks, and download the cleaned image once satisfied.
Key features
The primary interaction is a masking editor where users brush over the area to remove, adjust brush size, clear or refine the mask, and run the erase operation. The editor exposes zoom controls and a before/after slider for visual comparison of the reconstructed background.
Processing relies on AI inpainting: after a user starts the erase action the system reconstructs missing regions based on surrounding pixels, produces a preview, and allows iterative refinement of the mask before finalizing the result. The workflow includes a short verification step that the system performs automatically prior to running the erase.
EditGhost is browser-native and intended for quick, first-pass cleanup tasks. It is optimized for removals where the distraction is localized and the surrounding background remains readable; it is positioned as a faster alternative to manual clone-stamp or content-aware workflows for small edits.
Use cases
Photographers and travellers can remove tourists, passersby, and photobombers from travel and street images without cropping the scene, preserving composition while eliminating unwanted people.
Ecommerce and product teams can clean product images by removing tags, props, dust, glare, reflections, and thin cords or cables prior to publishing catalog or marketplace listings.
Real estate agents and listing photographers can polish interior and exterior listing photos by removing small clutter such as bins, cords, wall marks, and staging leftovers. The tool is also used to remove timestamps, small logos, blemishes, sensor spots, and minor reflections as a quick retouch step before deeper manual editing.
