Category: Software.

Cloud Edit is the browser-based editing in PhotoRobot Cloud: item metadata, OCR extraction, viewer layouts and exports, without the local application. Changes apply to the item in the cloud for the whole team.

## How PhotoRobot uses it

It complements image-level editing in [PhotoRobot Controls](https://www.photorobot.com/glossary/photorobot-controls), such as background removal and color correction, which runs on the studio workstation.
