FREE MADE FOR CREATORS AI-NATIVE

A Real Editor

Layered. Native. Made for shipping.

Photoshop-familiar shortcuts. Native Apple Silicon performance. AI woven into the editing surface — not bolted on as a panel.

Made with Tiramisu

From canvas to click-ready.

Every image below is a real Tiramisu render — committed as test goldens, regenerated deterministically on every build. No mockups.

The Metaphor

Every layer of a tiramisu. Every layer of an image.

Same idea, two crafts.

Why Tiramisu

Three product pillars.

Plenty of tools are free. A few are creator-focused. Many bolt on AI. Nothing is all three.

RESTS ON Tiramisu.

Free.

Open source, forever.

Made for creators.

Not graphic designers.

AI-native.

Woven in, not bolted on.

All three. At once. For the first time.

Get started

It's on GitHub.

macOS 26+ · Apple Silicon · Swift 6. Clone, build, ship a thumbnail.

# Clone & run
git clone https://github.com/hanley-tech/tiramisu.git
cd tiramisu
xcodegen generate
open Tiramisu.xcodeproj   # build & run from Xcode

The North Star

Free forever.
Local always.
Yours completely.

Photoshop costs $276/year. Canva fragments features across paywalls. Every web tool sends your work to someone else's server. Tiramisu is the answer to all three problems at once — open source, on-device AI on Apple Silicon, and a creator's complete control over their files, their data, and their bill.
