Photopea offers a Spot Healing Brush, which the company describes as a smart AI tool that removes unwanted objects or blemishes from a photo by analyzing surrounding pixels and filling the selected area with matching content. It is available to all users at no cost.

Details

The Spot Healing Brush is documented on Photopea's official learn pages under "Smart Tools" with the description that these tools use artificial intelligence. A user draws over an unwanted area, and the AI analyzes surrounding pixels to generate replacement content that blends in naturally—for example, replacing a stone on a beach with sand texture. Photopea states the tool typically completes in 1–5 seconds. This is distinct from the Magic Replace tool: Spot Healing does not require a text prompt and works from surrounding image context alone.
