I can see how this is useful for laypeople. Those with a DIY attitude might resort to popular image editing tools. My choice would be trying to achieve this with Imagemagick. Fred Weinhaus' script http://www.fmwconcepts.com/imagemagick/skew/index.php and maybe adding a blur later.

With all due and sincere respect to mikaelaast's effort and ambition, I can't believe we're at a point where the implementation of an image filter can ask for a automatically renewing $5 per month subscription and nobody blinks. We used to blink, didn't we?

My 100 Croatian lipa : This feels like something that's too expensive for a random individual (I've become allergic over time to simple things that insist on subscription as opposed to pay once). But too cheap for enterprise use. Consider putting together few more simple tools, build a quick pipeline, and offer per seat and enterprise licensing.

It would be nice to have a few more examples. The only example I see on the homepage is hidden in the video, both hard to see and not always visible.

Why would this be a subscription? It could just be a standalone app for $10 bucks and you'll probably get more lifetime revenue that way compared to having a subscription, because in a year more people will buy for $10 than will subscribe and stay subscribed for long enough to overcome that revenue.
