PhotoKeyworder

PhotoKeyworder is an AI-powered web tool that automates keywording for microstock photographers, videographers, and vector artists. Instead of manually typing titles, descriptions, and keywords for each file, you upload up to 500 photos, videos, or EPS vectors at once and let the AI handle the metadata. The tool supports JPG, PNG (with transparency), EPS, and common video formats. It generates metadata that matches the requirements of major microstock agencies like Shutterstock, Adobe Stock, iStock, and Getty Images.

The AI works by analyzing the content of each file — objects, actions, scenes, and even context from filename hints or geolocation EXIF data. For photos, it includes a free AI upscaler that boosts small images up to 16 megapixels. For videos, it uses multi-frame analysis to understand action and context better than single-frame tools. You can customize the length of titles, descriptions, and the number of keywords, and keywords are ordered by importance. Results are available as embedded metadata in the original files (for photos and vectors) and as CSV downloads in standard or agency-specific formats (Adobe, Shutterstock, iStock). There's also an optional Adobe Lightroom Classic plugin for those who prefer to stay inside their editing environment.

This tool is built for stock contributors who want to speed up their submission workflow. Instead of spending hours keywording each batch, you can process hundreds of files in minutes. The batch processing and free upscaler are especially useful for contributors with large libraries or those who shoot in lower resolution. Real-world use cases include preparing a batch of travel photos for Shutterstock, adding metadata to a series of video clips for Adobe Stock, and generating iStock-compatible CSVs with controlled vocabulary keywords. PhotoKeyworder is a straightforward, no-nonsense solution for a tedious but essential part of microstock work.
