## What it does

- Opens a folder of RAW, JPEG, or HEIF in place. No import, no library. A JPEG or HEIF beside a RAW is one frame.
- Reads RAW from Sony, Canon, Nikon (NEF, NRW), Fujifilm, OM System, Panasonic, Pentax, Samsung, Leica (RWL), Hasselblad (3FR, FFF), Phase One (IIQ), and DNG.
- Auto-cull on this Mac flags blur, closed eyes, bad exposure, and bursts. You review every flag. Nothing is deleted. Auto-cull reads embedded previews, not the full RAW.
- Graycard Auto grades each frame on-device (Core Image auto-enhance): face balance, tone, vibrance.
- Twelve wedding looks with one intensity: True to color, Light and airy, Warm daylight, Soft pastel, Warm grain, Dark and moody, Muted color, Tungsten night, Silver grain, Black and white, Soft glow, Light leak.
- Copy Look carries one frame's grade across a selection. Export can lock one white balance, then run Auto per frame.
- Exports ICC-tagged JPEG proofs (16-bit TIFF optional) with an XMP sidecar to a folder you choose. Keeps shot date, camera, lens, GPS, and IPTC; drops MakerNote.

## Pricing

- Free: every tool, and the first 80 unique proofs. Re-exporting those stays free.
- Graycard Pro lifts the proof limit: $9.99 a month, $29.99 a year, or $59.99 once (USD). Family Sharing on every plan. No trial.

## Privacy

Photos are not uploaded. No account. Analytics is off until turned on in Settings › Privacy; then anonymized events go to PostHog in the EU, never photos, recipes, proofs, folder paths, or client names. Purchases go through the Mac App Store.

## Limits

Global color only: no local masks and no lens-profile editor. Mac only.
