Curves
Per-channel, 10 presets, opens .acv. Local processing, nothing uploaded.
Drop an image in and pull the curve — down on the left darkens, up on the right brightens, live.
The horizontal axis is the original brightness, the vertical is what it becomes; bend the line into an S and you have added contrast. Besides the RGB composite, the red, green and blue channels can each be pulled separately — the most direct way to fix a colour cast. There are 10 built-in presets (Increase Contrast, Strong Contrast, Cross Process, Colour Negative, Invert and more): apply one, then fine-tune from there. The Ctrl+M shortcut matches Photoshop, and Photoshop .acv curve preset files open directly. Curves runs as a non-destructive adjustment layer — the original pixels are untouched and the settings stay editable or deletable. It all runs in your own browser; the image is never uploaded.

FAQ
- Is it the same as Photoshop Curves?
- Yes. RGB composite plus red, green and blue channels, the same Ctrl+M shortcut, and Photoshop .acv curve preset files can be imported and used directly.
- What if I do not know how to pull curves?
- Use a preset. Ten are built in — apply one with a click and fine-tune from there. If you only want a one-click look, the filters page suits you better.
- Can I change it back afterwards?
- Yes. Curves is a non-destructive adjustment layer: the original pixels are untouched, the settings stay, and you can reopen them or delete the whole layer whenever you like.
- Is my image uploaded? Do I need an account?
- Nothing is uploaded — it all runs in your own browser. Free, no sign-up, no usage limit.
