The AI suite, offered under the Magic Studio brand, includes Magic Media (text-to-image generation), Background Remover (instant background removal), Magic Write (AI text generation and improvement), Magic Eraser (unwanted object removal from photos), and more. Even without professional design skills, AI support enables quick creation of high-quality presentations, social media posts, posters, video thumbnails, and more.
