What PhotoCull AI is
PhotoCull AI is a browser-based photo culling tool for sorting images into Keep, Maybe, or Reject. It scores sharpness, exposure, noise, color, and vibrance, and also analyzes composition and EXIF metadata. For portraits, TensorFlow.js BlazeFace detects faces while the app examines eye focus, catchlights, and blinks. Review options include Grid, Large Grid, and Filmstrip views, keyboard culling, side-by-side comparison, sorting, and filters. Analysis metrics and EXIF data can be exported as CSV. The maker says photos are processed locally in the browser and remain on the user's machine. The quick start lists Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Safari as modern browsers for opening the app. The Free plan is free and includes an 80MB file size limit. RAW images are not supported, and EXIF support is limited to JPEG. Processing is single-threaded, so batches of 500 or more photos will be slow. Lightroom XMP sidecar export is listed on the roadmap rather than as an available integration.
Good
- Sorts images into Keep, Maybe, or Reject
- Scores several image qualities and composition
- Includes face and eye-related analysis
- Exports metrics and EXIF data as CSV
- Processes photos locally in the browser
Watch out
- RAW files are not supported
- EXIF support is JPEG-only
- Batches of 500 or more photos will be slow
- Free plan has an 80MB file size limit
Who it suits
It suits photographers who want browser-based culling and image analysis without sending photos off their machine. It is a better fit for JPEG workflows than for RAW libraries or very large batches.
Verdict
PhotoCull AI combines image scoring, portrait checks, and practical review controls in a browser workflow. Its local processing and CSV export may suit photographers, but RAW support and large-batch speed are notable constraints.
