Looking for something new? Try CullTone

Whatever you shoot, CullTone takes the card from the camera to a gallery your client can choose from: it sorts every frame into Keep, Review or Archive with a reason, edits the keepers in your look and hosts the gallery, all on one flat plan that doesn't charge per photo.

Why switch

A cull you can read

The first decisions appear within seconds of the card going in. Each one says why: eyes closed, motion blur, a better frame in the same burst. The same files always give the same piles, and nothing is deleted.

Edits that look like yours

Pick one of 54 looks per project, or on Pro let CullTone learn your style from your Lightroom catalogs or XMP files. Face retouch keeps bindis, nose pins and moles exactly where they are.

Delivery included

Your client gets favourites, approvals, redo requests and ZIP downloads. Prefer Lightroom? Take XMP sidecars with ratings, reasons and develop settings.

Solo is $9 a month and Pro is $19. One plan covers cull, edit and client gallery.

CullTone runs on Macs with Apple silicon; Windows isn't available yet. It's in private beta, and billing isn't live yet.
