Aftershoot is an AI-powered photo culling, editing, and retouching application built for professional photographers. It automates post-production work — from selecting the best shots out of a shoot to applying consistent, style-matched edits and natural retouching — and lets photographers deliver client galleries with built-in proofing and print sales. It runs locally on Windows or macOS and can process images fully offline.
