Cull a whole shoot in minutes, then make the calls yourself.
AI takes the first pass across every frame — focus, exposure, contrast, eyes open. You get a set already sorted and a shorter evening. What you don't get is a machine deciding which photographs your client sees.

What culling software is actually for
A wedding produces two to four thousand frames. Perhaps six hundred are worth showing. Getting from one number to the other is three or four hours of looking at near-identical photographs and deciding which of five almost-the-same shots has both people looking at the camera.
None of that is creative work. It's the part of the job that happens after the interesting decisions and before the ones that matter, and it's why post-production eats evenings.
What the AI looks at
The first pass measures the things that can be measured, and nothing else:
- Focus — sharpness across the frame, and separately on faces, since a soft background with a sharp subject is a photograph and not a mistake.
- Exposure and contrast — frames that are clipped or flat enough to be unusable.
- Eyes — closed or half-closed, which is the single most common reason a good frame is unusable.
- Faces — how many, how large, how well lit.
Frames with no people in them are scored differently, on exposure and contrast alone, and marked so you look at them yourself. A photograph of the rings or the venue isn't a failed portrait, and software that treats it as one is worse than no software.
The selections stay yours
The AI marks suggestions. Nothing is deleted, nothing is hidden, and every frame stays in the gallery whatever it scored. You can start from the suggestions and adjust, or ignore them entirely and work through the set yourself.
That's deliberate. A culling tool that decides for you is asking you to trust its taste, and taste is the part of the job you were hired for.

What happens after culling
Culling is the first step rather than the whole product. Once you've made your selections, the same project can carry on:
- AI editing — colour, tone and finish applied across the whole set in minutes, from $0.12 a photo. Choose from six looks, or send us your own edited work and we'll train a profile on your style.
- Professional editing — the frames that need a person go to an experienced editor, with your notes attached to the specific image.
- Review and delivery — client galleries, approvals and downloads stay attached to the same project rather than scattered across Dropbox and email.
What it costs
Your first culling project is free, up to 500 files, with no card required. After that, unlimited culling is $19 a month.
Editing is separate and priced per image, and new accounts get ten days of it free — AI colour, product work and hand editing — followed by 10% off for the rest of the first year. The culling subscription is not part of that; it's $19 whenever you start it.
Who built this
SHOOTPRO24 has been doing photo and video post-production for photographers and studios since 2015 — culling, retouching, clipping and video editing, by hand, for people with deadlines. This platform is the workflow we built for ourselves, opened up.
That's why the human editors are part of it rather than an afterthought. We know which frames automation gets wrong, because we used to fix them one at a time.
Try it on a real shoot
Not a folder of samples — something you actually have to deliver. It's the only way to find out whether the suggestions match your eye, and it costs nothing.
