OptiClean is an AI-powered image and video restoration tool specifically optimized for the Apple ecosystem.

The tool also features specialized modes for upscaling images, creating mosaics to obscure sensitive information like faces, and preserving original EXIF metadata. It is designed to integrate seamlessly into macOS and iOS workflows, offering right-click 'Open With' support and a user-friendly interface for both hobbyists and professional photographers.
