Peakto 1.8's AI-Powered Conversational Search for Photos is a Game-Changer
Рет қаралды 959
Күн бұрынCyme have just updated their photo management app Peakto to version 1.8 and added an AI-powered conversational search tool. After testing this I reckon it's the most powerful tool for local photo searches I've tried. No keywords required and it doesn't even use the cloud. Don't understand why no-one's talking about this amazing tool.
I'm giving away a free licence to Peakto Summit edition. Stay tuned to the end for the deets.

You’re right it is more impressive that Excire foto. You convinced me.

It is isn't it. So much is reliant on an Internet connection these days that it's nice to have some that can work just as well without one. :)

Hi Andy With your video on Any Vision, this product shows the positives that AI can bring to a photographer. I don't tend to add key words as part of my work flow as LRC can be a tad clunky but this makes life so much easier. Great stuff and keep up with these refreshingly honest videos. John Spencer

Thanks John. Yep - for productivity it's a huge bonus. Between these two plug-ins my appallingly disorganised photo archives are far more accessible. :)

I got all excited by your video, went and looked at the website and decided to subscribe. Typed in my credit card details, downloaded the software, enetered the licence key and .... "computer says no". Sorry but I need to be confident about the company I'm buying from. The app might be brilliant but if the back end business service is shite, I can't really feel good about trusting them to be providing me with a service in the future. So I think that's the end of Cyme for me. Pity, cos it looks good.

@@Andyhutchinson yes I’ve been in touch and they are really helpful but I’ve run into some more issues and I really feel like it’s not ready for prime time just yet. We’ll see. The search is fantastic but there are some issues around communication with Capture One

In the interests of fairness, an update. After a day of interaction with the support guys, it now works (mostly). The search is amazing, and I've already dug out photos of places I'd forgotten I've even been to, so I am well pleased right now!

Hi Andy. Great review. Can this program work as a stand alone catalog for one’s photo collection? I’ve been enjoying your reviews of other software programs which are well done and the odd humorous comment is entertaining.
@Andyhutchinson Жыл бұрын
Yep. It can 100% work as a standalone catalog. All you have to do is point it at wherever your photos are stored - an internal or external drive and it will then index them. Then you can use it to search and group stuff into albums and rate it and all the usual stuff. It has no editing tools built in, so you'd need to jump off to your photo editor of choice to edit any images. :)

Thank you SO much for this review. I'm still trying to decide between Peakto and Peakto Search LR. I understand that Peakto does not allow you to create collections in Lightroom and that Peakto Search LR does. But is there a simple way to create a Lightroom collection after doing a search in Peakto some other way? Can Lightroom "read" the attributes you've assigned in Peakto? Or, is there some other way?
@Andyhutchinson 13 күн бұрын
I know the Cyme devs read the comments here, so it could up on the upgrade roadmap. :)

What would be the Windows equivalent of Peakto? You weren't blown away by Excire Foto, so that leaves packages like Lightroom, Bridge, and a few others. What are the capabilities of the new ON! Photo Raw 2024 in this regard?
@Andyhutchinson 7 ай бұрын
On1 was the same as Excire - it had AI keywords but they were too vague to be useful. If you're just after AI keywording then check out the AnyVision plugin - johnrellis.com/lightroom/anyvision.htm

To be up-front, I'm not a Mac user so this is really just a curiosity-only question, but... Presumably the generated index resides on your computer. How much storage is used by the index for 250k+ images? Thanks.

Only Instagram and that doesn't really count as the cloud. It only applies to local files at this stage -Lightroom, Capture One, Photolab, Apple Photos, Aperture, Luminar, iView and any folders or drives you want to add. Possible something they'll add in the future. :)

@@Andyhutchinson hi Andy....Lightroom Cloud is going in beta this week...so this will be our first Cloud based catalog synchronisation. We might add more in the future based on request...not necessarily catalogs, but cloud storages like DropBox for example could be aggregated in peakto for those of us who use DropBox as an image container.
