LAI - Look at it: helps photographers move through a shoot faster.
It is a focused photo culling app for iPhone, iPad and Mac, built for reviewing, rating, rejecting, comparing and organizing photos without cloud uploads, feeds, distractions or automated decisions.
Open a folder, start reviewing, and keep your selection moving.
FAST PHOTO CULLING
Review your photos in a clean, distraction-free workspace. Move through a set with swipes, keyboard shortcuts or Apple Pencil, then mark what stays, what goes, and what needs another look.
RATE, REJECT AND LABEL
Use star ratings from 1 to 5, reject weak frames with a single action, and add color labels for fast follow-up work. Separate keepers, alternates, experiments and problem shots without breaking your flow.
GROUP YOUR SELECTION
Create groups from selected photos and organize your shoot in a way that matches how you actually decide. Build groups for hero shots, alternates, scenes, clients, locations or export candidates, then filter the grid to focus on one decision at a time.
COMPARE WITH CONFIDENCE
Select two photos and compare them side by side with synchronized pan and zoom. Check focus, expression, composition and small differences before choosing the stronger frame.
EXIF WHEN YOU NEED IT
Open the EXIF panel without leaving the review view. See camera model, lens, shutter speed, aperture and ISO next to the photo you are judging.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
LAI processes photos locally on your device. Your images are not uploaded to the developer’s servers. If you choose to use iCloud sync, it uses your private iCloud container, which is not accessible to the developer.
