## What is Dishlight?

Make your food look as good as it tastes.

Dishlight fixes food photos the way a pro would: the yellow cast from kitchen lights, flat or murky light, a dark side away from the window, dull or overcooked colors. Open a photo and it picks the best look and the right tweaks for you, in one step you can undo.

KNOW WHAT TO FIX
• Appeal score: a 0–100 rating of light, shadows, color, sharpness and framing, before and after.
• Clear tips that name the control to use. Blurry shots score low, honestly: editing can't fix blur.
• "Improve Automatically" applies the changes the tips suggest.

COLOR AND LIGHT, FOR FOOD
• White balance taken from your plates and napkins, not from the food, so a yellow curry stays yellow.
• Neutral shadows with no color cast, and even light across the dish.
• Bright areas keep their detail: no more blank egg whites or blown cream.
• Vibrance that boosts sauces, crusts and herbs without tinting the plate.

LOOKS AND EFFECTS
• 12 looks, from Natural and Bright & Airy to Dark & Moody, Golden Hour, Film and Noir, each scored on your photo.
• Vignette, edge or background blur, grain, and your own saved looks for a consistent feed.

READY TO POST
• Crops for Instagram (4:5), Pinterest (2:3), your blog and headers, with zoom and rotate.
• Export sizes for blog, Instagram and Pinterest, with file-size limits for fast pages.
• Titles, alt text and file names written by Apple Intelligence, on your device.
• Your watermark or logo on every photo.

EDIT A WHOLE SHOOT (PRO)
• One look on every photo of a recipe shoot; each photo still gets its own color correction.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• Everything happens on your iPhone, iPad or Mac. Photos are never uploaded.
• Saved copies carry no location. No account, no tracking, no ads.

DISHLIGHT PRO
A one-time purchase for iPhone, iPad and Mac, no subscription: batch editing, watermark, unlimited saved looks and full-size saves. Every look, adjustment, effect, the appeal score and all web export sizes are free.

FROM THE LAKI MAIKA‘I KITCHEN
Dishlight was made by the cooks behind Laki Maika‘i (lakimaikai.com), the travel and recipe site, for their own recipe photos. Developed by Videre Research.
