Photo manager and RAW developer

Browse RAW files, organize your library, and develop your photos with a full non-destructive RAW editor. Built for photographers who want speed and simplicity.

Everything you need, nothing you don't

RAW Develop

GPU-accelerated non-destructive RAW editing with AgX tone mapping. Exposure, contrast, white balance, tone curves, noise reduction, crop & rotate, and more. No centralized database, edits stored as instructions in XMP sidecars.

RAW Viewing

GPU-accelerated RAW preview from many cameras. Native Rust metadata reads with full EXIF and XMP sidecar support, no conversions needed.

Noise Reduction

Luminance and chroma noise reduction with edge-preserving guided filter, plus Smart Denoise, a machine learning model that intelligently removes noise while preserving detail. Shadow-aware processing with multi-core parallelization.

Gallery & Organization

Browse your photo library in a familiar tree structure. Multi-select with batch operations, full keyboard navigation, and rating/flag filtering.

Smart Import

Import from cameras, SD cards, or any folder. Conflict resolution with side-by-side comparison, filename normalization, EXIF-based dates, and star ratings. Mass Storage camera import works on macOS, Windows, and Linux. MTP import works on macOS and Windows.

Geotagging

Drop a GPX track to batch-geotag photos, or manually pin locations on the built-in map. Search places with Photon.
