In progress

  • Even better Auto Tuning on hundreds of real dive photos — e.g. very shallow, bright turquoise sand scenes.
  • Species recognition, next round More training photos, more species and an independent test set to measure accuracy honestly.
  • More object masks Dedicated fish, shark and coral masks, so local edits can target them directly.
  • Speed Faster RAW development and video processing.
  • Denoise An own denoise network for high-ISO underwater shots — second training round done, next: careful sharpening.

Planned

  • Beta for 10 testers Planned from December 2026 at the earliest — first builds for a small group of underwater photographers.
  • iPhone version DepthLight on the iPhone, for editing right after the dive.
  • More dive sites Spot suggestions from the community, place names, regions still missing (e.g. Addu Atoll).
  • More adaptive presets Cave, wreck, night, wide angle, diver portrait.
