Facet: AI-powered photo classification and scoring for photographers ( self hosted )
Hello,
I was tired of Synology gallery photos performances and lacks of features: so i wrote a self hosted solution to organize my photos works with some ia tools.
Facet scans a folder of photos and gives each one a score based on sharpness, exposure, composition, tags, and how good the faces look, everything is configurable.
It groups shots from the same burst and flags the best one, help you find similar photos.
It recognizes recurring people across your library and lets you filter by them. Manage persons. You browse results in a web gallery on your local machine, filtering by score, camera, tags, or person.
Everything stays on your computer — no cloud, no subscription
