    Photo Mechanic is currently offered in two Editions:  Photo Mechanic Standard, and Photo Mechanic Plus.


Overview of Photo Mechanic Standard

    Photo Mechanic is the workflow tool used by professional photographers worldwide. View and cull down large batches of raw files to find your keepers fast. Use Photo Mechanic to streamline viewing, add or edit crucial metadata like keywords, captions, copyright information, and more. Speed through complex file renaming and reorganization tasks in a few simple steps, then send or upload files where they need to go right from within the program. Integrate Photo Mechanic with your existing post-processing workflow to speed up those time-consuming tasks and get back to what you do best!


Overview of Photo Mechanic Plus

    Photo Mechanic Plus contains all the features of Photo Mechanic Standard and extends Photo Mechanic with catalogs. Photo Mechanic Plus is a fast media manager and browser for viewing, organizing, archiving, and finding digital photo collections.  View your new digital photos fast, or locate and manage your complete collection in one or more catalogs across many external drives. You can even manage up to a million photos at once.  From right after your shoot, to finding photos for clients years later, Photo Mechanic Plus speeds up your workflow and helps you work the way you want.


    Both Editions of Photo Mechanic can be purchased as a Subscription license or a Perpetual license.


  • Subscription licenses are provided with smooth software updates, full customer support, and new feature updates for as long as the subscription is active. Access to Photo Mechanic will be discontinued only when the subscription is canceled.
  • Perpetual licenses will receive full software updates and support for one year after purchase. After one year, the license can be used perpetually on the last compatible operating system, but Photo Mechanic will not receive any new updates.
