§ 01 — Speed

Get through it tonight,
not next month.

You came home with two thousand photos. Marey opens them instantly and moves as fast as your fingers do — no spinners, no waiting for previews, no lag between one frame and the next. Culling stops being a chore you postpone.

§ 02 — Guided culling

Don’t rate two thousand photos.
Rate the ones that need you.

Instead of judging every frame one by one, Marey walks you through a guided flow. It handles the obvious calls and brings you only the decisions that deserve a human eye.

  1. 01

    Focus on the doubtful ones

    Marey is confident about most of your shots. You only look at the frames where the AI isn’t sure — that’s where your judgement counts.

  2. 02

    Pick the best of each group

    Bursts and similar shots are grouped together. Choose the keeper and Marey rates the rest of the group for you.

  3. 03

    Check the rejects for mistakes

    A last pass over what’s being thrown out, so nothing precious ends up in the bin. Rescue a frame in one keystroke.

§ 03 — Try it

Your turn. Pick the keeper.

This group was found automatically. Marey suggests a frame — agree, or choose another. Use your keyboard or tap.

§ 04 — AI scoring

An eye that learns yours.

Marey’s scoring goes beyond sharp-or-blurry. It looks at every frame, compares it with its group, and adapts to the photos you actually keep. The more you cull, the better its suggestions get — tuned to your taste, not to an average.

§ 05 — You stay in control

The AI suggests. You decide.

Nothing is final until you say so. Validate a rating with a single key, override anything you disagree with, and lean on tools built to help you choose — side-by-side comparison, a quick zoom to check focus, and the group always one glance away.

§ 06 — Auto grouping

Chaos in.
Order out.

Bursts, near-duplicates and similar scenes are gathered automatically into groups. You stop comparing frame 214 with frame 219 from memory — the candidates are side by side, ready for a decision.

§ 07 — Beyond culling

A library that keeps up.
An editor that’s enough.

Catalog everything

All your photos, every year of them, in one catalog you can browse at full speed. Scroll through a decade like it’s an afternoon.

Edit, lightly and fast

A lightweight editor with the tools that matter — including advanced masking — so most photos never need to leave Marey.

§ 08 — Lightroom compatible

Plays nicely with Lightroom.

Use Marey as the fast front door to your existing workflow, or as the whole house. Your choice, and you can change your mind any time.

Route A · Cull here, finish there

Do the culling in Marey, then export your picks and ratings straight into Lightroom or your editor of choice.

Route B · Move in

Import your Lightroom ratings and edits, and let Marey be your library, culler and editor — without starting from zero.

§ 09 — Honest positioning

Not Lightroom.
On purpose.

Marey isn’t trying to be everything for professional studios. It’s built for families, travellers and passionate amateurs — and covers the 80% of what they need, without the subscription, the cloud or the learning curve.

Marey is

  • The fastest way to cull
  • A fast, complete photo library
  • A good-enough editor
  • One price, fully local

Marey isn’t

  • A subscription
  • A cloud service
  • A pro retouching suite
  • Another thing to learn for weeks

§ 10 — Questions

Good to know.

Is it really a one-time purchase?

Yes. Marey is sold on the Mac App Store for a single, low price. No subscription, no monthly fee.

Are my photos sent anywhere?

No. All processing, including the AI scoring and grouping, runs locally on your Mac. Your photos stay yours.

Do I need Lightroom?

Not at all. Marey works on its own as a culler, library and editor. If you do use Lightroom, you can import your ratings and edits, or export your culling results into it.

Can Marey replace Lightroom for me?

If you mainly sort, organise and do everyday edits on family, travel or hobby photos — very likely. If you rely on advanced pro features, use Marey to cull and keep your editor for the finishing.

Does the AI decide for me?

Never. It suggests ratings and highlights doubtful frames; you validate or override every decision.
