My photo archive is huge. Really huge. And folder structures have never been my cup of tea. That’s exactly why I love Excire Foto: the software helps me keep track of everything in my archive. Not by tagging everything manually, but because Excire Foto offers an incredible number of “search options” that I can combine in any way I like. I don’t just search for photos—I narrow down my search precisely. Two people in the picture? Both smiling? Eyes open? Location, metadata, subject, keyword, or scene description? You can combine it all. And that’s exactly when searching finally turns into finding. Excire Foto is also extremely handy for me after shoots: Sort by scene? One click. Photos with closed eyes? Gone. Focus not on the face? Trash. One click—and even 2,000 images are pre-sorted in seconds. And editing? I launch that directly from Excire with a single click into the image editing app of my choice.

For Windows users, we recommend installing the Microsoft Raw image extension: Download

Files with the extension .heic or .heif have been supported since version 1.1.1. For macOs users, the HEIC format is processed automatically. In Windows environments, the HEIC format is not natively supported. In order to display .heic files, the system must support HEVC compression. To do this, you can install, for example, both of the following extensions from the Microsoft Store, which are offered by Microsoft Corporation:

HEIF image extensions (free) and HEVC Video Extensions (paid)

Will I receive regular updates for Excire Foto 2027?

You will receive regular updates, such as bug fixes and/or minor improvements, for free. Only upgrades, which include major improvements and significant new features, are paid. However, existing customers always receive a substantial discount for such upgrades.

Can I train the Excire AI myself?

Unfortunately, this isn’t possible. This is not due to Excire, but rather the methods currently used for image analysis. These methods were trained with millions of photos on specialized hardware.

The entire process takes place in an elaborate offline procedure that lasts several days. It’s the only way to achieve maximum recognition performance. (Note that our solution is a compromise between the best recognition performance and minimal runtime, as our software runs on customer computers, not in the cloud.)

Such AI models cannot be trained with just a few examples, and if they are, the recognition performance is often unacceptable.

Where can I get help if I have a problem?

If you need help, just have a look at our Help center. You can also use Excire Foto 2027 to send us a bug report.

Are my photos uploaded to a cloud server for analysis?

No. Privacy is important to us, so our AI analyzes your photos on your computer. We do not use a cloud solution.

Excire is available for macOS and Windows and supports the latest processor generations (Apple ARM, Intel Silverlake, and other modern processors) and their hardware support for artificial intelligence on both platforms.

Does Excire Foto 2027 send any data to a third party?

Excire Foto does not send any data to external parties. Privacy is very important to us! Therefore, our AI analyzes your photos on your computer.
