Following in the footsteps of [Uber](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/uber-scaled-solutions) and so many other on-demand services, Repixl is rebranding as a network of image editors. Based in the UK, the startup now offers [professional image editing](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reshot-ai), which is a great option for brands and bloggers whose business is heavily impacted by the quality of visual content.

The Repixl global workforce is described as "skilled, scalable and on-demand," which is made possible through an "automated workflow management platform." The hands-on image editors service would be ideal for [product photography](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/headshotwork). Currently, you can either sign up to the service for free, or become an editor yourself.

This is an interesting example of how photography can get a piece of the so-called 'gig economy' and shows how some companies are moving away from a model that competes on the basis of price alone.
