The company says in the coming weeks, they'll share more information on Neo. Here's a link to sign up and purchasing info. I look forward to getting an early release of Luminar Neo and will share my thoughts at that time. Skylum says Neo is not a replacement for AI and that LuminarAI will continue to be sold and supported. We don't have any real details on the specifics of this release.
LUMINAR NEO DEAL SOFTWARE
They've got very creative people on the software end, but companies have to be careful to be not seen exploiting their users or there will be a backlash. In my own landscape work, I find LuminarAI a powerful and time-saving tool. (while also retaining the features of Luminar AI). It also boasts a high-speed core engine with background rendering and accelerated exports for more complex tasks. The app provides the ability to build detailed and expressive images with advanced layer-based workflow and flexible tools that can be applied in any order. Luminar Neo is for those who want more editing options and more creative control. It's a compact and easy-to-navigate application that already packs everything one needs for great results. The app can swiftly guide you to the best outcomes while still preserving editing flexibility. LuminarAI is the easiest-to-use image editor fully powered by AI for those who prefer a time-saving, template-driven workflow for quick results. In a more detailed response, Skylum says: Luminar says the two products have different workflows, and photographers are free to choose which is the better fit.

I hope it's not a ploy to soak photographers twice, once with LuminarAI and then again with Luminar Neo.

That makes me think there's going to be some overlap with LuminarAI, and I'm wondering why they don't incorporate these new tools into the existing product.
LUMINAR NEO DEAL SKIN
It appears to be aimed at portrait photographers more than, say, landscape photographers, but it's hard to tell until I have the software in hand. Still, LuminarAI has some excellent tools for portrait work, like skin smoothing, lighting controls, and bokeh.

It looks like another interesting effort from Skylum. The software is expected to ship this winter and will be available as a package deal with Luminar AI. Once edited in Luminar Neo, results can be sent back to the mobile device for easy social sharing or viewing on the go. Our new companion mobile app makes it simple to add pictures captured on a mobile device to your Luminar Catalog.
LUMINAR NEO DEAL FULL
Take full control of the background for portrait photos by quickly replacing it with an all-new image or background. New tools make removing unwanted background elements easier than ever before. Luminar Neo automatically recognizes and removes artifacts caused by a dirty camera sensor or lens.
