New AI PC Mode brings supported AI editing tools to NVIDIA RTX Spark, a new personal AI computing platform designed to run demanding AI workloads locally.

TAIPEI, Taiwan, September 3, 2026: CyberLink Corp. (5203.TW), a global leader in AI and multimedia software, today announced AI PC Mode, a new on-device editing experience in PhotoDirector 365. Optimized for NVIDIA RTX Spark™, NVIDIA’s new PC platform built for personal AI agents launching this fall, the new mode enables a curated selection of AI-powered photo editing tools to run directly on the user's PC, cutting down on cloud processing and keeping editing workflows local.

AI PC Mode unifies AI generation and editing tools together in a single on-device workspace, positioning PhotoDirector 365 among the first mainstream creative applications to run a complete AI editing workflow locally. By processing these tools locally, users can edit without uploading their images for cloud processing and can reduce dependence on internet connectivity for those workflows.

“AI PC Mode puts creators back in control of how their work is processed,” said Vincent Lin, President, CyberLink. “With NVIDIA RTX Spark, we're bringing powerful generative AI editing directly to the PC, giving PhotoDirector 365 users greater flexibility and privacy in their workflows.”

Two Ways to Process AI

PhotoDirector 365 now gives users a choice in how they access supported AI editing tools. Full Feature Mode provides the complete PhotoDirector 365 experience, including cloud-assisted features, while AI PC Mode focuses on tools that can be processed directly on the device.

This approach allows creators to choose the processing method that best fits their project, whether they need the full PhotoDirector toolkit or want to keep those editing workflows local. AI PC Mode also reduces reliance on cloud-based AI generation credits for its generative tools.

A Dedicated Workspace for On-Device AI Editing

AI PC Mode brings PhotoDirector's on-device tools together in a streamlined workspace, including:

• Generative editing: AI Image Generator, Edit by Chat, and AI Replace
• Image enhancement: AI Denoise, AI Deblur, AI Face Deblur, AI Image Upscaler, and Auto Color Enhancement
• Background editing: background removal and replacement
• Object and distraction removal: AI Object Removal and Wire Removal
• Portrait and style tools: AI Try-On, AI Hairstyle, Face Beautifier, and Body Reshaper

Running these tools locally can reduce upload and processing delays for unmetered processing, keep more creative content on the user's own device offering privacy for the user when needed, and provide greater flexibility when internet connectivity is limited.

For creators, this means more control over everyday photo editing. For businesses, agencies, real estate teams, and ecommerce sellers, local processing can help keep product images, marketing assets, and other visual content on the systems where they are being created and edited.

Optimized for NVIDIA RTX Spark

NVIDIA RTX Spark is a new class of personal AI computing platform designed to bring powerful AI models, agents and applications to the desktop. It combines high-performance AI and graphics capabilities with up to 1 petaflop of AI performance and up to 128GB of unified memory, designed for creators and developers to run demanding AI workflows locally with greater control over their data and less reliance on cloud processing.

CyberLink optimized AI PC Mode for NVIDIA RTX Spark, leveraging NVIDIA TensorRT for RTX software to accelerate AI workloads on the device. The combination enables PhotoDirector 365 to take advantage of local GPU processing for demanding AI-powered editing tasks.

By moving select AI workloads from the cloud to the PC, AI PC Mode provides an alternative for creators who want to take advantage of local hardware for their editing workflows while maintaining access to the broader PhotoDirector 365 feature set - providing private, unmetered processing and no dependence on tokens.

“Creators are transforming their PC from a tool into a teammate,” said Gerardo Cabrera, Senior Director of Product Marketing for Local AI at NVIDIA. “CyberLink is leading the way by using generative AI, powered by NVIDIA's GPUs and software stack, to give its users the best performance possible.”

Availability

AI PC Mode begins rolling out this October, as part of PhotoDirector 365 subscriptions on Windows PCs equipped with NVIDIA RTX Spark. For more information, visit www.cyberlink.com.
