Image to Layers

Free AI generated image to PSD converter — with layers

Convert an AI generated image to PSD with layers: the subject, the text and the background of your ChatGPT, Midjourney or Gemini image come back as separate layers, so you can fix a word or move things without generating the image again. A free single-layer PSD converter is built in.

  • Text comes out as pixels on its own layer, not as editable type.
  • Hidden areas are generated, so check them before you publish.
  • Only upload AI images you have the right to use.

Only need the file format? Once you choose an image you can save it as a single-layer PSD, made in your browser.

One AI image in, 5 transparent layers out — every one on the original canvas, so they stack back into the picture.

Before you generate

Write prompts for AI images that split cleanly

The AI images that separate best are the ones generated with separation in mind. These rules come from making our own examples.

Five habits that help an AI image split

  • A plain background — a flat colour or a smooth gradient.
  • Space between objects, instead of things piled on each other.
  • Text in its own block, away from busy artwork.
  • Few large overlaps: whatever sits behind something has to be invented.
  • No smoke, glass, glow or other see-through effects.

Fixing a misspelled word in an AI image

AI image generators still get a word wrong now and then — the taco poster in the examples above says DELICOUS. When the text sits apart from the artwork it comes out on its own layer: delete that layer, retype the word in Photoshop in a similar font, and the background underneath is already filled in.

The exported text is pixels, not live type — the fix is to replace it, not to edit it.

Not rig-ready parts

A character in an AI image comes away from its background as a whole — a first split for edits and compositing. It does not produce the dozens of separate parts that Live2D or Spine rigging needs.

Add this to the end of your prompt

plain flat background, objects clearly separated with space between them, text set apart from the artwork, no overlapping elements, no smoke, glow or transparency effects

Who it is for

Who converts AI-generated images to PSD

  • ChatGPT and GPT Image users

    A great AI image with one wrong word or one element in the wrong place. Fix that part instead of rolling the dice again.

  • Midjourney artists

    Take a generation into Photoshop as layers to composite, retouch or build a series around the same subject.

  • Social and marketing teams

    Generated posters and ads that need a date, a price or a language changed before they go out.

  • Motion designers

    Depth layers for parallax, and a subject that can move independently of the background.

One flat AI image, or the generation in layers

An AI-generated image arrives as one flat layer; saving it as PSD does not change that. Splitting it with image to layer is what makes a single word or a single object editable.
