Aftershoot

What Aftershoot is

Aftershoot is photo post-processing software for photographers, available on macOS and Windows. Its workflow covers culling, editing and retouching, with plans for individual tools and combinations. Culling scores and groups images using criteria such as sharpness, exposure, blinks, duplicates, facial expressions and composition. For editing, its AI profiles learn from a photographer’s edited images, and manual adjustments are also available. Retouching includes adjustable subject sliders and presets that can be synced across images. Aftershoot supports RAW, JPEG and TIFF files, as well as bulk renaming and resizing. Its culling workflow connects with Lightroom Classic and Capture One, carrying ratings, color labels and flags through export. The software says it processes images locally and can work offline without cloud uploads or a constant internet connection. New users can try it for 30 days without charge, with no credit card required to start; there is no free plan. Select costs $10.00 per month when billed annually ($120/year), or $15/month with monthly billing, and includes unlimited AI culling. Other plans offer editing, retouching or combinations, with Complete covering all three. Aftershoot was founded in 2020 and says its support team is available around the clock through Intercom.
