Photo editing and collages in a browser
BeFunky covers retouching, collages and simple graphic design in one browser tab, with the batch tools that make a hundred product shots survivable. It is aimed at people who want an edit finished rather than at people who want layers. Exports work on the free plan, which is rarer than it sounds in this category.

Your own editing style applied by the photo
Imagen trains a personal profile on a few thousand of a photographer's own edited images and then applies it to new shoots, priced per photo rather than per month. Culling, cropping and retouching are add-ons on the same meter. Paying by the photo suits an uneven year better than a subscription does, and the first thousand edits cost nothing.
Our note
Against Aftershoot the split is billing rather than quality: this charges per photo and that charges per year. Work out your annual volume and the answer falls out, and remember the beta-priced extras here are not permanent.
