PJ SORTER

AI photo culling built by a motorsport photographer, for photographers. It clears the obvious rejects, surfaces your strongest frames, and hands you a Lightroom recipe — so your time goes on the shots that earn it.

What It Is

CUT THE GRIND.
KEEP THE QUALITY.

A heavy race-day take can swallow an evening — sometimes the better part of a day — frame by near-identical frame. PJ Sorter doesn't pretend to make that vanish. It does the dull half: scores every photo on sharpness, framing and timing, sorts them into three honest tiers, and pulls your rejects out of sight. You stay in control of the keepers. This is a quality tool for a careful workflow, not a volume machine.

AI-Assisted Culling

Every frame scored on sharpness, framing and timing — so the best of a burst surfaces first and the throwaways drop out.

🏁

Three Honest Tiers

Portfolio, Keeper, Reject — fixed, consistent cutoffs. No vague star ratings to second-guess later.

🎨

Lightroom Recipe Export

Build a look once and export it as a real .xmp — preset or sidecar — to apply across your keeper set.

🔒

On-Device Culling

Your full-resolution files never leave your browser. Only downscaled measurements go to the cloud.

🎯

Pro Mode Masks

Per-region Subject and Background mask guidance baked into the export. Lightroom handles the detection.

📐

Built-in METER

An EV100 calculator and saved spots for your gear, so you nail exposure before the lights go green.

How It Works

FOUR STEPS.

Drop your shoot in

Load a folder. Full-res files stay on your machine — only measurements are sent up for scoring.

Every frame gets scored

Sharpness, framing and timing become one number per photo — the sharp frame in a burst stops hiding.

Sorted into three tiers

Portfolio, Keeper and Reject. The rejects leave your view so you only look at what's worth editing.

Export a Lightroom recipe

Build your look and export a .xmp to apply across the keeper set, then finish the edit your way.

Who It's For
