PyxelAid

A powerful and flexible toolkit built for pixel art creation, processing, and restoration.

PyxelAid combines parametric image processing tools, specialized AI models, batch processing, and a modular workflow designed specifically for pixel art.

Build your own processing pipeline, transform illustrations and photos, clean and restore existing pixel art, process multiple images at once, and share your creations with the community.

PIXELIZE

Turn illustrations, photos, and other images into pixel art.

PyxelAid includes a collection of pixelization modules designed for different visual styles and workflows.

Create clean pixel grids, reduce and reorganize colors, generate stylized pixel art, and combine multiple modules to build your own unique conversion pipeline.

CLEAN & RESTORE

Clean, repair, and refine your pixel art.

Remove unwanted artifacts, repair distorted pixels, clean rough surfaces, improve edges, reduce color imperfections, and restore damaged pixel art using a wide range of specialized processing modules.

PyxelAid can also help snap AI-generated pixel art to proper pixel grids, making it easier to clean, refine, and continue editing.

AI TOOLS

AI models trained specifically for pixel art workflows.

PyxelAid includes specialized AI-powered modules designed for tasks such as pixel art restoration, cleanup, enhancement, background removal, and detail-preserving scaling.

Upscale pixel art by 2× or downscale it by ½ while preserving important visual details and maintaining the characteristics of pixel art.

Remove backgrounds using AI models specially trained and optimized for pixel art images.

NOTE: An NVIDIA GPU with CUDA support is strongly recommended for faster AI processing, but it is not required. All AI modules can also run on the CPU, although processing may take significantly longer.

BUILD YOUR OWN WORKFLOW

Combine modules. Experiment. Create your own processing pipeline.

PyxelAid is built around a flexible module-based workflow.

Add, remove, reorder, enable, or disable modules and adjust their parameters to create your own image processing pipeline.

Every module can be combined with others, allowing you to create anything from simple corrections to complex multi-stage pixel art processing workflows.

ESSENTIAL EDITING TOOLS

Everything you need for quick pixel art adjustments.

PyxelAid also includes essential editing and transformation tools such as Flip, Symmetry, Resize, Scale, color adjustments,  and more.

Combine classic image editing operations with specialized pixel art processing and AI-powered modules inside the same workflow.

IMAGE POOL & BATCH PROCESSING

Work with one image or process hundreds at once.

Drag and drop your images into the Image Pool to keep all your working files together.

Switch between images, process them using your current module pipeline, and export multiple files at once.

Need to process an entire folder?

Batch Processing allows you to apply your current pipeline to all images inside a folder and automatically export the results to a destination of your choice.

CREATE & SHARE PRESETS

Save your workflows and share them with the community.

Turn your favorite module pipelines into reusable presets and load them whenever you need them.

With Steam Workshop integration, you can publish your presets and share them with other PyxelAid users.

Browse Official Presets or discover workflows created by the community, subscribe to them, and load complete processing pipelines directly into PyxelAid.

DESIGNED FOR PIXEL ART

Not just another image editor.

PyxelAid is designed from the ground up around pixel art processing.

Whether you are creating pixel art from illustrations, cleaning AI-generated images, restoring existing artwork, experimenting with custom processing pipelines, or processing hundreds of files at once, PyxelAid gives you a flexible collection of tools built specifically for the job.

Pixelize. Clean. Restore. Experiment. Create your own workflow.
