Photos stay on your device · AI runs offline

Your photos.
Your AI.

Search photos in any language, auto-recognize faces and pets, chat with AI to find memories — all running entirely on your Mac. No cloud. No compromise.

Not just an album — your photo assistant

Everything runs on-device. No cloud, no subscription, no compromise.

Search in any language

Type "sunset at the beach", "猫がソファに", "chat sur le canapé" — CLIP + MExMA multilingual embeddings support 20+ languages.

Face & pet recognition

YuNet face detection with eye-alignment rotation, ArcFace embeddings for clustering. Cats and dogs too — grouped by individual.

Chat with AI about photos

"What was that ramen shop in Kyoto?" — a local Vision Language Model reads your photos and answers in natural language.

Duplicate detection

Perceptual hashing (pHash) with BK-tree indexing finds near-duplicates in O(log n). No more wasted storage.

Background removal & stickers

One-click background removal powered by on-device ML. Add a white stroke border to make stickers instantly.

Smart organization

Auto-sorted albums, timeline, map view, tags, favorites, ratings. Browse by person, place, or moment.

Privacy & safety

All AI runs on your Mac. GPS privacy scrubbing for exports. Built-in content safety filtering. Data never leaves your device.

Video keyframe search

FFmpeg extracts keyframes from videos. Search video content the same way you search photos — by description.

Native macOS experience

Apple Silicon GPU acceleration via MLX & ONNX Runtime. Touch ID vault, keyboard shortcuts, tabs. Built for Mac.

What powers Imaglius

A fully local AI pipeline — no API keys, no cloud, no latency.

CLIP + MExMA

Multilingual image-text embeddings for semantic search across 20+ languages

MLX & ONNX Runtime

Dual inference engines — Apple Silicon GPU via MLX, cross-platform via ONNX Runtime

YuNet + ArcFace

Face detection with landmark-based rotation alignment, then embedding extraction for clustering

sqlite-vec

Vector similarity search built into SQLite — no external database needed

pHash + BK-Tree

Perceptual hashing with BK-tree index for O(log n) near-duplicate detection

Vision Language Model

Local VLM (llama.cpp / MLX) for photo Q&A, captioning, and natural language interaction

MCP Protocol

Model Context Protocol server — AI agents and external tools can query and manage your library

Litestream + S3

Continuous SQLite replication to S3-compatible storage for backup
