Stockmeta Metadata for stock photographers In development

Desktop app · Windows & macOS

Your stock photos, described and keyworded before you finish your coffee.

Keywording is the part of stock photography nobody signed up for. Stockmeta reads every image in a folder and writes its title, description and keywords, then hands you a CSV that's ready to upload.

Three steps, then it's out of your hands

  1. 01

    Point it at a folder

    Stockmeta watches the folder you choose. Drop new shoots in and they queue themselves.

  2. 02

    It looks at every photo

    Each image is read on its own terms — subject, setting, mood, the details a buyer would search for.

  3. 03

    Export the CSV

    Titles, descriptions and keywords come out in the column layout your agency expects.

What you get

Batch keywording

A hundred images or a thousand — the queue runs while you do something else.

Titles and descriptions too

Not just a keyword dump. Each photo gets a sentence a human would actually write.

Edit anything

Every field is yours to rewrite before export. Re-run a photo if the first pass missed the point.

CSV that uploads

Export in the format your agency asks for, so submission is a file picker and nothing more.

Runs on your machine

A real desktop app for Windows and macOS. Your originals never move and are never altered.

You keep count

Photos are the unit. You always know how many you've used and how many are left.

Questions

What does Stockmeta do?

It looks at each photo and writes a title, a description and a keyword list for it, then exports the whole batch as a CSV you can upload to a stock agency.

Where do my photos go?

Stockmeta runs on your own computer. Images are sent to the AI model that reads them and nowhere else. Your originals stay in your folders, untouched.

Do I have to accept what the AI writes?

No. Every field is editable before you export, and you can re-run any image you're not happy with.

Which agencies does the export fit?

The CSV follows the column layouts the major stock libraries use for bulk upload.

What does it cost?

Pricing isn't published yet. There will be a free tier to try it on real photos before you decide.

When can I use it?

It's in development now. The Windows and macOS app is the first release.
