Cull: AI Photo Culling
Sort & pick keepers, on device
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Sharp full-resolution previews, face zoom that lands on the face, and import straight from your camera card. The AI first pass for photographers, on your device.
Cull does the first pass on a photo shoot for you — entirely on your device.
Import a shoot and Cull scores every frame for the things that decide a keeper: sharpness, eyes open or closed, and exposure. It groups the near-identical shots into moments, stars the best of each burst, and lets you keep or reject at a glance. What took an evening now takes minutes.
THE FREE FIRST PASS
• On-device AI scoring — every frame rated for focus, eyes, and exposure. No cloud, no account, no waiting on an upload.
• Best of each burst — near-duplicates grouped into moments with the strongest frame starred for you.
• Fast keep / reject — swipe or tap through a shoot, zoom to 100%, and see exactly why each frame scored the way it did.
• Straight into your editor — export standards-based XMP sidecars (picks flagged, stars as ratings), a JPEG folder, a Photos album, or a CSV.
• Private by design — photos never leave your device, and your originals are never modified or deleted.
THE PRO TOOLKIT — ONE PURCHASE, YOURS FOREVER
• Compare mode — 2–4 frames of a burst side-by-side with synced zoom and pan, then "Pick this" to decide the whole moment.
• Focus map — a heat overlay showing exactly where focus landed in the frame.
• People view — the shoot grouped by person: see everyone's blinks, sweep them per person, and confirm every person has a keeper.
• Custom profiles — dial the AI's strictness from conservative to aggressive, and let it learn from your overrules.
• Pro export pack — full-resolution JPEGs of your picks, plus custom XMP label colors and reject mapping.
Pro is a single one-time purchase. No subscription, ever.
BUILT FOR REAL SHOOTS
Portrait, event, sports, wedding — pick a grouping profile that matches how you shoot. RAW supported, including CR2/CR3, NEF, ARW, RAF, ORF, RW2, and DNG. Works fully offline; you can use it in airplane mode.
Cull — the first pass, done.

Import straight from your camera card.
• Choose a whole memory card or any folder and Cull now finds the photos inside its subfolders, such as DCIM/100MSDCF on Sony cameras. Previously only photos at the top level were picked up.
• If a folder really has no photos in it, Cull now tells you instead of returning to an empty screen.
• Folder imports now keep access to every file until the import finishes.
