Topaz ReMask 5
Topaz ReMask 5 is a photo editing plugin and standalone application for advanced image masking and selection. It uses AI-powered tools to detect and isolate subjects from backgrounds with high precision, making it popular with photographers, digital artists, and video editors who need to extract complex objects like hair, fur, and foliage. The tool integrates with Adobe Photoshop, Lightroom and other image editors as a plugin, and can also be used as a standalone desktop application. It is part of the Topaz Labs suite of creative software.

1 suggestionTopaz ReMask 5 is currently an Intel-only application with no native Apple Silicon build confirmed. Topaz Labs has not yet released a Universal Binary or arm64-native version. You should contact Topaz Labs directly to ask about Apple Silicon compatibility plans and a timeline for a native build. Given that Apple will remove Rosetta 2 support in macOS 28 (September 2028), this is worth clarifying soon if you plan to rely on this tool beyond that date. In the meantime, the Intel build continues to work under Rosetta 2 on M-series Macs, though you will see some performance reduction compared to native execution. If you need a native masking solution in the near term, consider exploring alternatives like Photoshop's built-in masking and content-aware fill features, or Affinity Photo, which ships with native Apple Silicon support and has capable selection and masking tools.
