Overview

PhotoTag.ai automates metadata for images and video: titles, descriptions and keywords. For stock contributors this is the decisive economic problem, because keywording is what makes an image discoverable and therefore saleable, and doing it manually takes longer per image than shooting it.

The integrations are what make it practical rather than merely capable. A Lightroom Classic plug-in means metadata is written inside the workflow photographers already use, and an API endpoint covers volume and automated pipelines. A tool requiring export, upload and re-import would not survive contact with a real catalogue.

Beyond stock, the same capability serves archive organisation and accessibility, since generated descriptions support alternative text at scale. Generated keywords should still be reviewed, as they can be plausible but wrong in ways that hurt discoverability.
