Meitu, Which Once Made Photo Editing Easy, Now Aims to Do the Same for AI
Original: 18年前不让你苦修PS的美图，这次不让你苦修AI了
Meitu, famed for democratizing Photoshop-level editing, launches an AI product to make AI tools effortless for everyday users.
Meitu, the Chinese consumer tech company that made sophisticated photo editing accessible to millions without Photoshop training, is applying the same philosophy to AI. The company has announced a new AI-focused product or feature designed to lower the barrier to using AI tools. The move positions Meitu as a consumer-facing AI enabler, echoing its original mission of simplifying complex creative technology.
Meitu — the Chinese technology company best known for its suite of consumer photo-editing applications — has announced a new AI product or capability aimed at making artificial intelligence as frictionless for ordinary users as it once made digital photo retouching. The announcement, reported by Qbit AI on June 18, 2026, draws a deliberate historical parallel: roughly 18 years ago, when professional-grade image editing required mastering Adobe Photoshop, Meitu built apps that let anyone achieve polished, retouched results with a few taps. The company is now positioning itself to repeat that democratization story, this time with AI.
