The Aftershoot Black Friday Deals are now live:

• Get 20% off unlimited AI Culling, Editing, and Retouching starting at $7.99/month.
• BONUS: Get 6 months of AI Retouching free when you join with the Pro plan this Black Friday.

Additional information on Aftershoot:

AfterShoot is an AI-Powered Photo Workflow Tool for Photographers

AfterShoot is an all-in-one, AI-driven software platform designed specifically for photographers to automate and accelerate the post-production process. It handles culling (selecting the best shots from a shoot), editing (applying consistent adjustments like exposure and color grading), and retouching (subtle enhancements such as skin smoothing or blemish removal), allowing users to spend more time shooting and less on tedious desk work. The tool runs entirely offline on Windows or MacOS computers (requiring at least 8GB RAM and a modern CPU), supporting RAW and JPEG files from most major cameras—no internet upload or complex setup needed.

Here are some of the available Aftershoot features:

AI Culling 

Automatically sorts and ranks photos based on sharpness, composition, and duplicates, learning from your preferences to improve accuracy over time:

• AI analyzes 30+ factors to rank the best photos.
• Software continuously improves with updates.
• Options: manual, AI-assisted, or fully automated culling (customizable for user comfort).

AI Editing

Applies batch edits that match your style, such as white balance, lens corrections, and creative presets:

• Works offline.
• AI learns user style and improves with use.
• Pro profiles & instant profiles available.
• Lightroom + Capture One integration.
• Marketplace with pre-built paid and free profiles from well-known photographers (growing library).

AI Retouching

New feature for natural-looking touch-ups, including wrinkle/blemish removal, teeth whitening, and skin enhancements that mimic professional human retouching:

• Natural look, no plastic/polished skin.
• Skin smoothing, blemish & wrinkle removal, teeth whitening.
• Glasses glare & stray hair removal.
• Real-looking results, designed to keep skin texture without overdoing it.

Personalization

• The AI adapts to your individual editing style by observing your actions, ensuring outputs feel custom rather than generic.

Unlimited Processing

• Handles as many images as you want without per-image fees or storage limits.
