How the Duotone Effect works

Upload an image and choose the available duotone controls. The browser processes the image pixels and maps tonal values into a two-color style. Preview the result before downloading the processed image.

Browser-based processing

The image effect is produced with browser image and Canvas processing. The preview lets you inspect the result before using the available download action.

What the effect changes

Duotone processing remaps image tones for a stylized color treatment; it does not add detail that is missing from the source.

Tips for better results

Start with a clear source image and compare the preview with the original before downloading. Stronger effect settings can intentionally remove or alter visible detail, so choose the setting according to the result you need.
