Paint For Me

Press one button and watch color arrive in layers.

Paint For Me is not AI. It is a digital math function inside the app: it reads line edges, finds paint regions, applies color palettes, and builds editable flats, shadow, and light layers while keeping the artist's lines visible.

No image generation. No prompt model. No AI training. Just canvas math helping artists start the coloring stage faster.
