Many digital artists feel existing AI art tools are too generative and don't respect their creative control.
Build plugins for Photoshop/Procreate that add AI assists for tedious tasks - smart selections, style-aware fills, composition suggestions - while keeping the artist fully in control.
Sell through creative marketplaces or direct subscription.
Start with one powerful feature (like perspective-aware inpainting) before expanding.
Risk: Fast-moving space where Adobe/etc might build similar features natively.
