What Makes Imagor Studio Special?​

We were serving millions of images but needed better tools for managing and editing them. When we looked at alternatives, they all wanted premium prices for basic features, or locked you into their cloud infrastructure.

So we built Imagor Studio - open source, self-hosted, and designed for people who want control over their images and workflows.

Non-Destructive Workflow​

All image transformations are URL-based, meaning your original images remain untouched. Generate transformed versions on-the-fly without modifying source files.

Universal Storage Support​

Works with local filesystems, S3-compatible storage, and more. Switch between storage backends without changing your workflow.

Built on imagor​

Imagor Studio is powered by imagor, a fast and secure image processing server that provides URL-based image transformations. Imagor Studio extends imagor with a beautiful gallery interface and live editing capabilities, giving you the best of both worlds: imagor's powerful processing engine with an intuitive visual interface.

All image transformations benefit from imagor's high-performance architecture, comprehensive operation support, and proven reliability in production environments.
