Metadata editing and search
If you want to make the most of your shared image database, then it’s essential to ensure your files are filterable by business-relevant criteria. With Excire Foto, you can add individual metadata to each photo, then use it to retrieve specific images at any time. The Office Edition includes an additional metadata field for license usage duration.
Database optimization with collections, ratings, and more
Collaboration with a shared image database works best when all teammates can structure and tag the files using a standardized system. With the help of color labels, star ratings, and customized collections, you can tailor your image database to fit your business.
Role-based concept for maximal security
Excire’s two-tier role-based concept distinguishes between unrestricted use and access to core functions such as searching and filtering. You have full control, and can handpick team members to maintain and develop your image database. It’s the perfect protection against chaos and data loss.
Similarity search with enhanced AI
Experience the next generation of similarity search with our optimized AI. The new example-based search allows you to find desired image content faster and more accurately than ever. Start with a comparable image, then instantly get results containing similar content. It’s quick, easy, and impressively precise.
Cutting-edge face and people search
Looking for a photo with a specific person, a group photo from the last company event, or a selection of images based on various criteria (e.g., gender, smiling/not smiling, business attire)? Excire’s face- and people-search functions are powered by state-of-the-art AI so you can find the right images in an instant!
A new level of image search with prompt-search AI
Excire’s free-text search has no limits; with prompt-search AI, if you can describe an image, you can find it. Retrieve specific images from your database using freely formulated text prompts - in either English or German. For example, a search for “friendly female executive at a desk with a laptop” will immediately provide you with all relevant results.
AI image tagging and precise keyword search
The days of manually entering keywords are over! Excire’s AI analyzes each image in your database, then automatically adds relevant keywords. Plus, our precise keyword search allows you to find specific images in just a few clicks. In Excire Foto Office Edition, you can also hide keywords that aren’t relevant to your business.
AI aesthetic evaluations
Search for duplicate photos
Cleaning up your image database - and keeping it organized - has never been easier! With Excire’s AI-powered duplicate finder, you can identify duplicate and near-duplicate files in seconds. Numerous tools to assist in detecting and removing duplicates, and identifying “bursts” of images is also possible.

Excire Foto Office Edition FAQs
There are two roles: a standard user, who can perform all functions, including adding folders to the application, and a restricted user, who primarily has read-only access and cannot execute certain functions. All users who are members of the “restricted” group in the Orgadmin area are considered restricted users. How this group is created and how users can be added to it is explained in the following document: Excire Foto Office Edition Setup
A “restricted” user can utilize the full AI power of Excire Foto Office Edition to find relevant photos and create collections. However, they cannot perform the following functions:
- Add folders
- Load and save metadata
- Edit and delete metadata
- Add and delete keywords
- Delete, rename, and move photos
- Delete, rename, and move folders

Our AI has been trained with over 5 million annotated photos, which shows that training an AI is very resource-intensive. Furthermore, such training requires specialized hardware. Since neither of these is available on customer machines, unfortunately, it is not possible for you to retrain the AI yourself.
Our AI has been trained with over 5 million photos to recognize approximately 650 different contents and find relevant photos for various search queries. However, this process occurs a priori on specialized hardware, so the AI does not learn further during operation.
We continuously train the AI and provide you with updates in the form of software updates.
Our software does not upload photos to a cloud; instead, it analyzes all photos locally on your computer.
Our software runs on Windows 10 and Windows 11, as well as on macOS (version 11 and above). Please note that a shared database can only be accessed from the same operating system. Therefore, sharing between Windows and Mac computers is not possible.
As a subscriber, you will receive regular updates and upgrades that include bug fixes, optimizations, and new features.
Simultaneous access to the shared database is not possible. If the database is in use, you will be shown who is currently using it, allowing you to coordinate with each other. Additionally, you can use your local database in parallel.
Yes, that is possible in parallel.
