CullAi
Ai assistant for professional photographers to select final photos from a photoshoot. CullAi automatically treats people who appear often in photos as more important. You can override this to indicate which people are more important. Consider, for example, a wedding in which the bride and groom are more important than one of the guests who may also appear often in the photos. CullAi automatically rates all photos based on AI score to rating mapping. The AI score of a photo is calculated by taking the AI score of all faces of people in that photo and how important they are for this photoshoot. AI score of a face is a measure of a better-lit, sharper face with open eyes. Default mapping is linear and is a good starting point, but you can adjust thresholds for each Rating. If you find a lot of discrepancies in auto ratings and ratings you would have given to a photo, try adjusting these thresholds.
