AI Culling uses artificial intelligence to analyze your photos, identify the best ones, and keep the duplicates or poor-quality images separately, saving you time and effort in choosing the right image.

What is AI-assisted culling?

AI-assisted culling takes the pain out of sorting through thousands of photos. Aftershoot’s intelligent algorithm analyzes your images, grouping similar shots together and identifying potential duplicates. This helps you quickly identify the best images from a shoot, saving you valuable time and effort. You can use AI-assited culling for free even after your trial ends.

AI culling vs AI-assisted culling, what to choose?

To determine which option is right for you, it’s helpful to understand the nuances of each approach. AI culling typically involves a more automated process where the AI makes the majority of the culling decisions based on its training and predefined preferences. AI-assisted culling, on the other hand, provides more user control, allowing you to guide the AI and make the final selections. Aftershoot offers a flexible framework for both approaches, allowing you to tailor the culling process to your specific needs and preferences.

Hear From Fellow Photographers

Our business is primarily focused on dance photography, so we shoot a lot of shots at each show to get the best images of our dancers in motion. Aftershoot allows us to select much faster, which speeds up our work, making our lives and nights easier and allowing us to deliver to our clients much sooner.

Our photographers can sometimes get a little trigger happy and shoot dozens of images of the same pose and Aftershoot greatly reduces the time culling.

William Edward

Aftershoot has given us a huge chunk of our lives back. It learned our culling style effortlessly, even with pets, and we fully trust it for culling and editing. For the first time in over 10 years, we’ve been able to truly take days off and even enjoy a full winter break with family. That’s been a game-changer for us.
