Cull: Photo Picker
Photo Culling Studio
Free · In‑App Purchases
Cull is the fastest way to triage thousands of photos. AI-suggested rejects, burst grouping, side-by-side compare, and instant XMP export to Lightroom.
Cull is the fastest way to go from a full memory card to your best shots.
Import a shoot, fly through your photos with keyboard shortcuts, and export
your picks straight to Lightroom — all without your photos ever leaving your device.
CULL FASTER THAN EVER
Press P to keep, X to reject, and move to the next shot automatically. Cull
hundreds of photos in minutes instead of hours. Every action has a keyboard
shortcut so your hands never leave the keys.
FOUR POWERFUL VIEWS
• Grid — scan your entire shoot at a glance with adjustable column density
• Loupe — full-screen single photo view with a floating filmstrip for quick
navigation
• Compare — two photos side by side to pick the better expression or moment
• Burst — automatically groups burst sequences and surfaces the best frame
using AI scoring
ON-DEVICE AI SCORING
Every photo gets an AI quality score powered by Apple Vision — running 100%
locally on your Mac's Neural Engine. No cloud, no subscription, zero privacy
cost.
• Face shots scored on capture quality, eye openness, and focus
• All other photos scored on aesthetics and sharpness
• Blurry photos automatically flagged for rejection
• Adjust the rejection threshold to match your standards
COLOR LABELS
Tag your keepers with Lightroom-compatible color labels (Red, Orange, Yellow,
Green, Blue, Purple) directly in Cull. Labels carry through to Lightroom on
export.
EXPORT TO LIGHTROOM
One click writes XMP sidecar files for all your keeps — Lightroom reads them
automatically when you import, so your picks, ratings, and labels are already
applied. No plugins, no manual tagging.
DESIGNED FOR RAW SHOOTERS
Cull works with every format your camera shoots: RAW (CR3, ARW, NEF, DNG,
RW2, ORF, and more), JPEG, HEIC, and TIFF. Files stay exactly where they are
on disk — Cull never copies or moves your originals.
PRIVACY FIRST
All AI analysis runs on your Mac using Apple's Vision framework. Your photos
are never uploaded anywhere.
ONE-TIME PURCHASE
Pay once, cull forever. No subscription.
