Why RevealStudio exists

A smaller image tool for one unusually specific job.

RevealStudio helps creators build, inspect, and publish images that change meaning between a timeline view and an expanded view.

01 / Focus

Full image editors can make a reveal, but the creator must assemble layers, masks, preview states, and export settings every time. RevealStudio removes the unrelated controls and keeps the decisions that shape this format.

Browser-local by default

Your source image should not need a round trip.

The MVP performs image loading, mask drawing, preview rendering, Alpha inspection, and PNG generation inside the browser. This keeps the workflow fast and reduces unnecessary transfer of unreleased artwork, product images, and drafts.

Read the privacy approach
Useful before clever

The output matters more than the effect demo.

A reveal is only useful when the timeline state remains legible, the expanded state delivers a real payoff, and the final file survives the publishing workflow. The editor and supporting tools are organized around those practical checks.

Honest product boundaries

RevealStudio is not a full design suite.

It does not replace retouching, illustration, typography, brand layout, or complex compositing. Finish the source art in the tool that fits that work, then use RevealStudio for masking, state preview, transparency checks, and reveal export.
