Thanks Peter. Don’t worry about the disclaimer. I know this is required and you make the best of it.

This is exactly what I need. Thanks.

The clarity of the image featuring the bike is compromised by the sharply defined figures of the person and dog in the background. This aligns with Excire's decision, as reducing their sharpness would enhance the overall quality of the image.

Quite interesting, but a bit expensive for private use. Do you know if it runs completely on your machine or do they use any cloud service in the background (as is often the case with ai-powered software)?

I think it runs on your computer and does not use cloud.

Does Excire Foto and Search have the same search functionality. I'm thinking that the full program would be better as it has AI to assist.

Yes.

Thank you for this video Peter. I purchased this software a day before seeing your video, so unfortunately did not use your affiliate link. One thing- your video is titled “I need this” - however it’s not clear to me from your video what about this software makes it something you need. Can you explain what you find most useful about this software, and how you use it in your workflow?

No worries. I will make some more content about this software. In those I will explain more why I need it.

@@ForsgardPeterthank you Peter, I’ll look forward to that. I have a giant mess of a photo collection, and I’m hoping this software will enable me to organize it quickly. Instead of what would probably take me years to organize what I have, I’m hoping this software can get it done by the end of this year. I use Lightroom, and am curious to learn a workflow to use Excire Foto along with Lightroom to organize my massive collection. Thanks again!

Can it train itself? version 2022 was pretty crappy with faces. Shame we can't tell the software which are good matches and which are bad, to help train it do better next time

It cannot. I know that would be cool if it could. This new version works better than the previous version. It is still not perfect and it does not have to be. I have been happy with older version as I am now with the newer version.

@@ForsgardPeter Good for you. I know I'm not happy. AI can do so much today, and yet no company can provide a decent, trainable software with regular updates, even for more than a 100$. Sure, Excire 2024 is nice (I'm currently trying the trial version) but it's nowhere near perfect, and that's a shame

If it's available for mobile units, sure thing. But I have my doubts that anyone will be as flexible and good as Adobe 😬

That is true, but not this type of search.

I tried their crap once, and no thanks. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice ...

Search. It was so inaccurate that it was perfectly useless. Missed many subjects and misidentified just as many. Put a lot of crap into my metadata.

Same here. It was pretty inaccurate, especially with faces. Apple did a better job 10 years ago. Shame they don't want to let PC user use their tech.

Since I do not use closed operating systems, it is out of the question for me, so it is rather uninteresting for me.
