PixEnhance – AI Image Enhancement SaaS

Welcome to PixEnhance — AI Image Enhancement SaaS, a complete self-hosted platform for selling AI-powered image processing. Built on Laravel 13 with a modular architecture, it ships as a ready-to-run application with three enhancement tools, a credit-based billing system, fourteen payment gateways and a role-based administration panel.

Whether you are launching a photo-restoration service, adding image tooling to an existing brand or building a credit-based SaaS from scratch, everything is configured from the admin panel — no code edits required.

Core Features

Everything needed to run an AI image service, packaged in a unified responsive interface:

• Three AI Enhancement Tools: Background removal producing transparent PNGs, face restoration at 1x, 2x and 4x, and an upscaler at 2x, 4x, 8x and 16x. Each runs as a queued job with live staged progress and a before/after comparison slider.
• Credit-Based Billing: Customers spend credits per render. Every tool and every scale is individually priced from admin Settings — make a tool free or premium without touching code. Credits are reserved when a job starts and refunded automatically if it fails.
• Fourteen Payment Gateways: Stripe, PayPal, Razorpay, Paystack, Flutterwave, Mollie, Mercado Pago, Xendit, Izipay, SSLCommerz, BitPay, Coinbase Commerce, NOWPayments, plus manual bank transfer and cash methods.
• Pluggable AI Providers: Ships wired for OpenAI image models, with Google Gemini and self-hosted Ollama supported out of the box. Provider, model and API key are all set from the admin panel — switch providers without a deploy.
• Customer Workspace: Project gallery with tool and status filters, full render history, downloadable outputs, credit balance and transaction ledger.
• Visual Page Builder: CMS pages assembled from reorderable sections, with drag-and-drop header and footer menu builders.
• Blog with Comments: Categories, SEO fields, cover images and threaded comments with moderation.
• Roles & Permissions: Granular per-module permissions, staff accounts, audit logging and login activity tracking.
• Social Login & Two-Factor Auth: OAuth sign-in, 2FA with recovery codes, and email verification included.
• Support Tickets: Built-in ticketing with replies and attachments so customers can reach you without email.
• Versioned REST API: Token-authenticated /api/v1 endpoints for authentication, 2FA and social login — ready for a companion mobile app.
• Newsletter & Notifications: Subscriber management, templated email notifications and web push.
• Cookie Consent: Configurable consent banner with per-visitor tracking for privacy compliance.
• Modular Architecture: Twenty-six self-contained feature modules — add or remove functionality without touching the core.

Built for Shared Hosting

• No symlinks required: Uploads are written directly into the web-served assets directory, so the app runs on any standard cPanel or Hostinger account.
• Ship-and-play: Dependencies are bundled — upload, import the database, fill in three .env values and the site is live.
• Portable asset URLs: Every asset path is derived from the incoming request, so the app works at a domain root or in a subdirectory without configuration.

Server Requirements

• PHP 8.2 or higher (8.3 and 8.4 supported)
• MySQL 5.7+ / MariaDB 10.3+
• PHP extensions: GD, cURL, mbstring, OpenSSL, PDO, tokenizer, XML, zip
• An API key from a supported AI image provider
