CLUSTER DESKTOP-EDITOR-IMAGE · 6 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2026-09-17
Local-first PSD image editors
This cluster consists of desktop and browser-based layered image editors that prioritize native PSD/PSB support and local-first storage. The dated history is too thin to read a shape from (only two dated entries before the index start), so the cluster likely predates the index or many members are undated. On traction, ImageSpace leads with 2 stars, while photosuite-bin and photon-studio have none.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Ranked by traction, highest first, and paged 20 at a time — this is a window on the cluster, never the whole of it. Ties are broken by a stable id so a product cannot appear on two pages or fall between them. Browse every cluster.
