Cull Me uP Lab · algorithms
Signals, not verdicts.
Cull Me uP reads the shoot's structure — bursts, time gaps, similar frames, focus stacks, near-duplicates — and surfaces it as cues. It helps you see the session; it never decides which frame is the keeper.
Suggested, not decided. Reversible, not destructive. The algorithm organizes attention — it doesn't replace judgment.
What the app can structure
Turn a folder into a reviewable session.
01
Time & EXIF grouping
Capture time, camera, lens and session breaks reveal the natural rhythm of the shoot — before any visual analysis.
02
Burst candidates
Likely bursts from time intervals, sequence behaviour and similarity cues. Nala finds the burst; you choose the frame.
03
Similar frames & near-duplicates
Visual repetition is grouped so you review candidates without drowning in almost-identical images.
04
Focus-stack candidates
Technical sequences that likely belong together — macro, product, landscape and controlled work.
Controls
Simple by default. Adjustable when it matters.
01
Burst sensitivity
Tune how aggressively sequences are grouped when your shooting style or camera behaviour needs it.
02
Similar-frame threshold
Keep grouping conservative for safety, or more active when the shoot is very repetitive.
03
Subject priorities
Humans, animals, birds, vehicles and other subject signals become workflow preferences — never forced decisions.
04
Simple / advanced
Light for the first pass; deeper controls available for Pro use.
Honest limits
The best frame is not always the safest one.
The strongest frame in a sequence is not always the sharpest or most conventional. That is why algorithmic output organizes attention — it never overrides the eye.
Structure makes selection lighter.
The point isn't to make the decision disappear. It's to make it easier to reach.
