Question: Is there a tool that can help me quickly sort through hundreds of photos and pick the best ones?

Aftershoot is a good option for pros. It's got AI Culling that quickly analyzes photos, picks the winners and separates the dups. The utility also can automatically crop and straighten photos, import RAW and JPEG files, and export directly to Lightroom and Capture One. A 30-day free trial and support for Windows and macOS means Aftershoot can help you spend your time on high-value work, not tedious culling and editing.

Another option is FilterPixel. The AI-powered software is used by more than 5,000 photographers around the world and handles a wide variety of file formats. It's got AI culling to pick the best shots, flag common issues and learn your editing style with custom profiles. FilterPixel also exports to Lightroom and Capture One, and offers a 30-day free trial.

If you want a more personal touch, Imagen is more like a custom AI photo editing assistant. It automates plodding tasks like cropping and straightening and delivers consistent, accurate results. Imagen also lets you cull with preferences you can set yourself, and it comes with 100GB of free cloud storage for the first three months. The idea is to free up your time so you can have more fun editing.
