Private by design

Local AI photo metadata generator

Some images can't go to the cloud — client work, unpublished sets, sensitive shoots. MetaPhotoAI can generate metadata locally on your own machine, so your photos stay on your device while the AI does the work.

On-device processing

Run metadata generation locally so your images never leave your computer — ideal for client work and unreleased material.

Your hardware, your control

Use your own machine's power for processing, with no dependency on uploading large libraries to a third-party service.

Built for sensitive work

Keep NDAs, embargoes and private commissions safe while still getting fast, accurate titles, descriptions and keywords.

Same full workflow

Local processing uses the same batch review, editing and export tools as the rest of MetaPhotoAI — nothing is stripped down.

How it works

  1. 01

    Import

    Drag in a folder of photos or videos — JPEG, PNG, TIFF, 50+ RAW formats and video all supported. Nothing is uploaded to the cloud unless you choose to.

  2. 02

    Generate

    MetaPhotoAI analyses each file and writes an agency-ready title, description and keyword set in seconds. About 1,500 files in 3 minutes.

  3. 03

    Review

    Batch-review and edit in one workspace. Adjust keyword counts, tone and per-agency settings before anything is written.

  4. 04

    Export

    Embed metadata into your files or export a CSV formatted for Adobe Stock, Shutterstock and other agencies — ready to upload.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. With local processing your images are analysed on your own machine and are not uploaded, so private and client work stays on your device.

What do I need to run it locally?

MetaPhotoAI runs as a desktop app on Windows and macOS. Local processing uses your computer's hardware — performance scales with your machine.

Is the metadata quality the same as cloud processing?

You get the same titles, descriptions and ranked keywords, with the same batch review and export workflow.

Is it free to try?
