PhotoFig
I’m working on PhotoFig: https://photofig.com, a recently launched product-photo editor for online sellers who need to clean up hundreds of images. It was inspired by my wife having to carefully mask product photos for her online shop. Existing tools could remove backgrounds automatically, but didn’t give her enough control when the result needed correcting. So masking is a first-class feature, with SAM-assisted selection and a precise manual brush. The backend and storage are self-hosted on hardware I own. Along the way I’ve had to solve some interesting infrastructure problems, including writing a Kubernetes operator that bin-packs GPU workloads across workers. I’m planning a technical write-up on the architecture.
