See what customers say about Peakto

"Dream come true! Visualize and find your images easily wherever they are—catalogs, files, external drives—it's now possible with Peakto. It’s impressive and indispensable. Beware, Peakto is addictive! What's more, it's user-friendly and aesthetically beautiful."
Testimonial of JF Barré for CYME
J-F BarréBayonne, France
"I’ve purchased an annual subscription and am delighted! I’ve added some old Aperture catalogs and use the faces I had defined in there to find the photos, and then Peakto shows me the same ones in Capture One (which, of course, does not do facial recognition), so I haven’t lost my old face definitions! Fantastic! Thanks so much!!!"
Testimonial of Martin Eliott for CYME
Martin ElliottVancouver, Canada
"Peakto is an incredible product. It far exceeds the features of other image catalogues I’ve used, and I’ve used plenty over the years. I particularly like Peakto’s approach of not trying to do everything, not moving my image files, and allowing me to edit the masters in the programs of my choosing."
Testimonial of Christopher Werby for CYME

"Congrats and especially thanks for this first initiative that will (finally!) streamline access to the various digital asset management solutions that photographers have “endured” over the past 20 years…"

"So far, the functionality is great. I’m most excited by the frequency of releases and ongoing innovation. Ultimately, I invested because of your very clear roadmap, with confidence and trust that the features would come. Keep going!"
Testimonial of Rob West

"The possibilities for searching make using Peakto somewhat relaxing because the tools are there, and you’ll likely be quite successful in finding exactly what you are looking for."
Doug Dina - Photographer and Peakto User
Doug DinaConcarneau, France
"Peakto is different. Finally, an application that allows me to manage all of my 350,000 photos in one place. Previously spread across years of multiple Aperture and Lightroom libraries, they are now consolidated in one single app. The dev team actively responds to requests and questions, often surprising me with better solutions than I was looking for."
Testimonial of Paul Clark for CYME

"My favorite feature of Peakto is that it allows me to browse and search the contents of my Capture One catalogs, including variants, in one place."

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Peakto?

Peakto is an intelligent media manager designed for videographers and photographers. It centralizes your photos and videos from multiple sources — editing software, catalogs, hard drives, servers, or NAS — into one unified space.

 

Thanks to its artificial intelligence, Peakto automatically identifies the content of videos and images, allowing you to quickly find the files you’re looking for. It streamlines the organization, search, and sharing of your media, even within collaborative projects.

To obtain Peakto software, follow these steps:

 

  1. Purchase Peakto: Visit the Peakto store and choose between a subscription plan or an unlimited license.
  2. Download Peakto: After completing your purchase, you will receive an email with a link to download the software.
  3. Trial Period: Note that the 7-day trial period is only available with subscription plans.

 

How does it work?

Provide your payment information via credit card or PayPal. You will not be billed for the subscription until the end of the 7-day trial period. The free trial automatically converts to a monthly subscription (1, 12, or 24 months) unless canceled before the end of the trial period. After the trial period ends, all license purchases are final and non-refundable.

Peakto lists your catalogs and folders to reflect the structure of your files.

 

If you want to add an image or video, simply drag it into a folder or catalog already listed by Peakto, and the update will happen automatically.

 

Alternatively, you can create a new folder or catalog and then add it to Peakto.

Peakto is compatible with a wide range of photo and video software:

 

Video editing software:

 

  • Final Cut Pro v11 (beta)
  • Adobe Premiere Pro 2024 and 2025 (beta)

 

Supported video formats (via macOS): AV1, AVC / XAVC / XFAVC, Apple Intermediate Codec, Blackmagic RAW, CineForm, DNxHD, DNxHR, DVCPRO HD, H.263, H.264, H.265 / HEVC, HDV, MPEG IMX, XDCAM EX / HD / HD422.

 

Video containers: .avi, .braw, .dv, .m2ts, .ts, .mp4, .m4v, .mxf, .mkv, .mov.

 

Photo editing software:

 

  • Aperture from version 3.6
  • Lightroom Classic from version 5
  • Lightroom Creative Cloud (latest version)
  • Luminar Neo from version 1.0
  • Capture One from version 20 (v13.x)
  • Apple Photos from version 6 (Big Sur)

  • Pixelmator Pro from version 3
  • DxO PhotoLab 4 & PureRAW 2
  • ON1 Photo RAW 2022 and 2023
  • Topaz Photo AI version 3

When a source of images (folders or catalogs) is ingested in Peakto the following happens behind the scenes:


  1. The source is fully read and the metadata of all images is retrieved. This includes metadata that is embedded in the image files, or metadata present in sidecars (XMP,…)
  2. The source organisational structure is fully read. This includes folder hierarchy for folders, and full catalog structure (albums1, folders, projects, …) for catalogs.
  3. Some thumbnails are constructed for each version present in the catalogs or folders.
  4. The instants (see later) are resolved.

 

Once these tasks are finished, the source can be viewed, searched, filtered, etc…

 

However, another long running task is spawned that will analyse all images and run some AI-based detections in order to build all keywords, scores used by Panorama. This long running task can be cancelled and resumed at any point later on.
