What is Image Culling?

Do you take thousands of photos in large bursts with your Camera? Then, do you painstakingly zoom-in to each one to determine which photo is just so slightly sharper? Are you a hobbyist or professional photographer searching for a faster way?

This process of selecting the best photos from the bunch is known as image culling, and DoveEye is the free solution for you.

Stop spending hours culling images, and let DoveEye automate ~90% of the process.

DoveEye uses AI and image processing to...

  • Automatically group your photos together

  • Find the best ones from each group based on a new, advanced Sharpness algorithm

  • Sort them into Low Quality and High Quality folders

... in just a few minutes!*


*Processing speed depends on computer hardware.

Core Features

RAW and RAW+JPEG File Support

Almost every RAW image file is supported, thanks to the ImageMagick library. Use DoveEye on Sony, Canon, Nikon, Samsung, and other cameras!

When JPEG files are available, DoveEye will prioritize these to significantly improve computation time.

Automatic Image Group Detection

DoveEye v4.0 uses a brand-new custom algorithm to accurately group your photos by scene. This helps DoveEye determine the best photos from each group, for ultimate flexibility.

NEW! Object-Detection-Based Image Culling

When you photograph wildlife, the surrounding trees and shrubs are probably not as important as the animal itself. And when you take a photo of a wedding, nothing is more important than the subjects' faces.

This is why DoveEye v4.0 is using a brand-new approach in the industry by implementing an object-detection model as a pillar for the image culling process.

DoveEye will detect key objects - such as animals, birds, or people, and calculate the sharpness of only the regions of the image which are most relevant.

NEW! Custom Sharpness Quality Evaluation

DoveEye v4.0 uses a brand-new, highly customized sharpness evaluation algorithm to determine the quality of the most relevant regions of your image.

NEW! Rule-Based Automatic Image Culling

DoveEye v4.0 features a rich automatic image culling system. You can tailor it precisely to your needs, such as:

  • "Cull the worst 80% of images from each image group, BUT make sure to keep at least 1 image from each group"

  • "Cull images with quality scores above 50 from every group"

With this customizability, culling thousands of images can be done in just a few clicks!

NEW! DoveVision BirdAI Beta: Automatic Bird Species Detection

(For Bird Photographers) DoveEye v4.0 will automatically detect the bird species of the birds in your photos. Then, DoveEye can sort your photos into folder by bird species WHILE culling them simultaneously! Never spend another second manually organizing your bird photos.

Still Absolutely Free

Unlike almost every existing solution, DoveEye is absolutely free, with no strings attached. Use DoveEye for 10 photos, or for 10,000 - all features are completely unlocked and free to use.

DoveEye has been made by one hobbyist bird photographer, who is currently a student attending college. You can support me by donating.
