Auto detect/import Capture One sessions
I use Capture One sessions for most work. How can I automatically detect and import these sessions? It's quite a bit of clicking about to import each of the sessions I have.
Sorting by AI Scores leads to "No images to show"
I'm currently trying to reintegrate all my images to Peakto, and everything runs a lot more smoothly than before. One thing i discovered, that i can sort my images in every way, except for any AI scores. Those are computed, but sorting by them leads to
Anyone Using Avalanche > Apple photos yet?
Looks like Avalanche can now convert my Lightroom > Apple Photos, however it says beta right now. Is anyone using it, what are the limitations?
No response?
What is going on here? I have got no response on my ticket since two weeks. The problem is there still, a lot of processor usage, and many times Peakto hangs and I have to force quit it.
So Far, So Good...
I've been playing with Peakto for two days. Lots of fun! I like: - Relatively easy setup and ingestion. For the first time ever I know exactly how many pics I have on my computer (137 654). Then I saw that's not counting my Apple photos, so add another
Searching Keywords/Tags in Capture One catalogue
i'm a bit lost with the search in Peakto when i search in capture One catalogue for a certain keyword that i've setup .. it does find the keyword. Like in the screengrab i attached. But then when i click on that keyword it literally doesn't do anything.
What are the best photography exhibitions in your country?
For photo enthusiasts, these shows are a great way to meet our favorite photographers, discover new content creators or technology providers. But what are the best photography exhibitions around the world? What do you expect when attending these sho
What happens when you change the thumbnail file format in Peakto?
I just discovered the setting to change the thumbnail file format from .jpg to .heic Since my Peakto preview folder runs at about 250GB, this seems like a reasonable choice. Import times doesn't really matter to me, I have more than 700k images currently
Processing when attaching a new folder always starts at 10%
see screenshot, happens always when attaching a new folder.
"Peakto Search" - is there a standalone app as well as the plugin?
I am considering purchasing the forthcoming "Peakto Search": https://cyme.io/peakto-search-plugin-lightroom/ The promo page (see link above) says that I can search catalogs even when Lightroom Classic is not running. So my question is... will there be
Avalanche Usage gather images assets
I recently purchased Avalanche, I retired recently and want to merge years of photos, scans and images. I have used several apps throughout the years, Aperture, Lightroom, Photoshop etc. But also have images which have never been cataloged. Can Avalanche
Q: Compute Missing AI Scores VS. Run Image AI Analysis vs Smart Re-ingest
When I ingested my libraries, I generally decided to cancel the AI Analysis as it was taking a long time, and I was more interested in just getting my libraries in and start organizing images into some very specific albums. Some 'ingested' libraries have
Image(s) in search result partly hidden
Image(s) in search results are partly hidden and you need to scroll down a little to see the top. (Obviously not a great problem, just a consistent one.) Here's an example:
When you view a photo in a watched folder the yellow sync icon appears in Peakto
When you view a photo in a watched folder (e.g. using macOS's quick look function or otherwise open the photo without changing it or saving it again) the yellow sync icon appears in Peakto as if something has been changed. Why is this?
Conversational search
Yesterday I was searching Peakto for images from Fukuyama, the Japanese city, and I noticed that when choosing "Conversational search", I got 383 results, all of them, except for one, unrelated to the city (and I don't have any photos of Francis Fukuyama).
Peakto's search function
I find it inconvenient that it isn't possible to just type a word or phrase in the search field and then press enter. It would be useful if there was a way of specifying a default setting for the search function so that you didn't have to scroll through
The question that developers should be asking is what features are missing from the top photo processing softwares. What is missing for you?
To me, a workflow is all about streamlining processes and removing obstacles. While organizing remains a significant challenge, it's not merely about folder structures; it's about efficient keywording, titling, and describing images. Dealing with various
Export Filename based on meta-data fields
I would like to name files based on meta-data fields (e.g. exif, iptc, ai). Please bring this feature to the export dialog, when "custom name" as naming option is selected.

Latest Version
Is ver 1.10.4 - 7663 the latest for Peakto?
Version with Edits
Hello I'm giving Peakto a try. I have attached my Capture One catalog. On some of the photos a small widow showing the photo with the caption "Version with Edits" I find that very distracting. 1. What does it mean 2. How do I get rid of it :) Thanks Monty
How to delete an attached source
Hi all, beginning to use Peakto I attached a lot of folder (with my pictures) located in an external HDD, named let say VOLUME1. But since, I had to rename my external HDD, so I attached again the same folders but with another volume name, let say VOLUME2.
Transferring metadata from Lightroom catalog to referenced "Watched Folder" image files
I wish you all a happy new year! I am currently preparing to move away from Lightroom this year and have a question about how Peakto works in connection with "Watched Folders". As background information, it is important to note that I cannot use Peakto
Map view
When you select a photo and then switch to Map view, the map is zoomed out, and all photos taken in the area are shown with – as far as I can tell – nothing to indicate which one is selected. It would be useful if instead the map was zoomed in on the
Converting from Lightroom to file system: folder structure
I would like to convert several large Lightroom catalogs to the file system for later use with Peakto and have a question about the "type of exported folder structure": I use the following folder structure in the file system (the Lightroom catalogs emulate
Normal conversion speed from Aperture to Capture One?
Hi, I have a 600GB Aperture library that I am converting to Capture One after all these years. Retroactive kept things limping along, but I finally purchase Avalanche to migrate the library. I noticed that briefly, my 10-core i9 iMac was running at about
Avalanche available for Apple Aperture to Lumniar NEO?
Is there a plan to add Luminar NEO to Avalanche capabilities? I have an old Apple Aperture library I would like to access in NEO but only see Luminar 4 and Luminar AI listed as Luminar targets. As a workaround, has anyone tried using Avalanche to go from
Download?
This might sound weird... but where do i download the latest full version of Peakto? I own a license and want to install it on a new computer.. but all find is a request to download the trial. Am i overseeing something obvious?
Create collections in Lightroom from Peakto
Probably a hundred reasons why this can't happen but I figured I'd suggest it anyway. The power of Peakto is gathering photographs together using AI instead of metadata. It's very powerful in that regard and can find photos that I failed to add GPS metadata
Apple Photos in Peakto: "No images to show"
Hello, I just started using Peakto. I attached an Aperture library, of moderate size, it appeared to work well. I also attached 2 Apple Photos libraries, one with 381 photos, this one worked equally well. The other one, which has 7330 images or so, does
Add a shortcut for "Show master image in Finder"
It would be great to have a simple shortcut to "Show master image in Finder". I often lose a bit of time when searching for this option in the right-click menu, when I think it should be one of the first options to show up.
Faces in Peakto 1.10
I've noticed that the faces detection tools seems to have been upgraded: it detects faces in photo, and allows to tag them. I have manually tagged some faces, but they do not appear in the "faces" panel. It says "no faces in source". ==> It seems to me
Peakto 1.10 Edit in.....
Hi, I've noticed that when right clicking on a capture one image, it will show "Edit in Capture One", but won't always show "Open in...." or "Edit in workspace..." . Also the Image Tab list isn't as complete (or in same order) as the list when I right
Watched folder stuck on "analysing"
I have a watched folder on an external drive, next to which the yellow "sync" logo appears: When I click the yellow logo, the following window appears: However it is stuck on "analysing", I never get to the point where it displays the number of changes.
Quality of keywords generated by AI
The keywords generated by AI to help us finding images is one of the top selling points of Peakto but so far the quality of the generated AI keywords is not exactly high in my collection. Quality looks similar to what I have seen several years ago but
IA Tab bug.
First , kudos for the work done, I've been following you since 2019 and the work done is tremendous. This version of Peakto is now mature and deserves to be widely adopted. Second, just FYI, following a transition to another hard disk for my originals
Panoramas and HDRs are not "Instants"
A series of similar photos for panoramas, stacks and HDRs are not "Instants". I wish there was a recognition of these use cases (by similarity and time stamps?) and a way to group them differently from instants. Possible? :-)
Peakto vs Mylio
I am wondering what Peakto offers that Mylio doesn't - the free version of Mylio seems to do a lot. Just wondering if anyone in the Peakto community has any advice. Thanks.
Filter by aspect ratio
Hi, It would be great to be able to filter images by a certain aspect ratio. For example, I like shooting in 65:24 so I'd like to be able to retrieve these pictures instantly. I think it would be useful for a lot of people, even with more "standard" aspect
Impossible to select "RAW image" in the filter
In the filter, we can choose "JPEG image" as file type: However, when we want to display only RAW images, we don't have a generic "RAW image filter", instead we are presented with the choice of specific RAW formats based on manufacturer: This doesn't
