Eight artistic criteria
Aesthetics, composition, storytelling, originality, message, humor, visual games and spontaneity, each scored from 1 to 10.
AI photo rating & critique · No account needed
Drop up to 5,000 photos. An AI jury rates every frame on eight artistic criteria, writes a short critique for each one and ranks them through the eyes of street, documentary, landscape or award juries.
The juries
A street photographer and a landscape editor would never pick the same frame. Switch jury and watch your ranking reorder itself: each one weighs the criteria its own way, and themed juries only judge the photos of their genre.

Photography critique, frame by frame
The warm side-light on the orange sari against the turquoise cupboard is gorgeous, but the boiling pot in the foreground could be framed slightly higher to strengthen its connection to the intimate exchange on the bed.

How it works
Pick up to 5,000 of your keepers, or a whole folder of selects. They are resized in your browser and start uploading while you check out.
€0.013 per photo, VAT included, one payment, no account. The jury starts the moment you pay and works through your photos as they arrive.
Switch between juries and criteria, read each critique and keep the shortlist. A private link to your ranking lands in your inbox.
What you get
Aesthetics, composition, storytelling, originality, message, humor, visual games and spontaneity, each scored from 1 to 10.
One or two sentences naming what makes the frame work or what holds it back, the way an editor would say it in a portfolio review.
Overall, street, documentary, landscape, portrait, travel and fine art juries, plus award juries that only keep photos above a high bar.
The same image uploaded twice is judged once and marked with its copies, so duplicates never crowd your top picks.
In Chrome and Edge, download the full-resolution original of any ranked photo straight from your disk. Export the whole ranking as CSV.
Close the tab once your photos are uploaded: the ranking keeps going and the link to it reaches your inbox.

A few minutes for a few hundred photos, and under half an hour for 5,000. You can watch the ranking build up live or close the tab once the upload is done.
Every photo is scored once on eight criteria. Each jury weighs those criteria differently, and themed juries such as street or landscape only rank the photos that belong to their genre.
Yes. Award juries only keep the photos that clear a high score, and every photo comes with a critique of what works and what holds it back, so you get a shortlist of candidate entries. The jury does not know the contest's theme or rules, so make the final call against the brief yourself. How to choose your contest entries →
JPEG, PNG and WebP. Export your RAW files to JPEG first; the jury only needs the image, not the raw data.
Thumbnails and results are deleted after 30 days. They are never shared and never used to train AI models.
It follows the same logic as a portfolio review: one or two sentences naming what makes each frame work and what holds it back, from composition and light to timing and storytelling, plus a rating on eight criteria. It's a fast first opinion on hundreds of photos, not a replacement for a mentor; use it to find the frames that deserve one.
Most AI photo raters give one overall score to a single photo, or judge how a person comes across in a profile picture. Picks ranks a whole batch on eight artistic criteria, writes a critique for every photo and lets different juries weigh them, so it's built for choosing your best work rather than grading a selfie. It's not a first-pass filter either: tools like Aftershoot or Imagen hunt for blinks, blur and the best frame of each burst, so run them first and bring Picks the photos you kept.
