Management and workflow
Stay in control of your digital assets with batch tools, automatic and custom stacking, tabs and more.
Organize & Search
Auto-Stack
Point ACDSee at a folder and let it find the groups for you. Stack by GPS location, capture time, image similarity, or any combination of the three. Tune the thresholds to match how you shoot — tighter for a fast burst, looser for a day-long shoot. Save your settings as a preset and apply them to a new folder with a keyboard shortcut. Grouping by location or capture time takes seconds, even on a folder of thousands of frames.
Custom Stacking
Some groupings only make sense to you. Group the frames you’re choosing between, and keep the whole set on hand while you decide. Group by your own reasoning — a bracket set, a series, a client’s picks. Rearrange a stack whenever you want, and put the frame you care about on top.
AI Reverse Image Search
Some photos are easier to recognize than to describe. As you browse your folders, AI Image Similarity quietly compares your photos by how they look — no tagging, no keywords, no setup. Then select any image and let AI Reverse Image Search find every visually related shot. It’s the fastest way to track down every frame from a series, every photo of a place, or every shot that just looks right.
Group By AI Image Similarity
The enhanced Group By tool now includes Group By AI Image Similarity, clustering visually related photos so patterns, near-duplicates, and hidden favorites rise to the surface. Use it on a single folder, a handful of folders, or the results of a search — combine it with an AI Keyword search to narrow a broad set down to exactly the images you want. It’s a new lens on a collection you thought you already knew.
AI Keywords
Have you ever been looking for that certain photo, one you know you have, but just can’t find? Say goodbye to the hunt with zero-effort AI Keywords. Search and find photos fast, cutting out the tedium of manually assigning keywords or hunting through thousands of photos for the perfect one. Make finding your latest trip to the beach as simple as searching “Beach”, effortlessly find all of your pet photos, or bring together your culinary creations to share in an instant. Make every photo discoverable and give them the love they deserve with AI Keywords.
Face Detection & Facial Recognition
The AI-powered Face Detection & Facial Recognition tool will find the humans in your photographs so you can name them for quick searching. ACDSee will immediately learn which names to put to which faces, and suggest possible matches when needed.
People Mode
AI-driven mode for identifying and managing people in your portfolio. Photographers from all walks of life will enjoy the ease of merging, renaming, or deleting faces in People Mode. Whip through tasks, like labeling unnamed faces, and quickly accept or deny batch labeling suggestions from the AI assistant for speedy naming of similar unnamed faces.
Migrating from another software?
Import face data from Lightroom™ and Picasa™ and save the effort of renaming everyone in your images. Facial Recognition will then find any matching faces in your ACDSee database. Learn more about migrating from Lightroom™.
Helpful tip!
Adding metadata prompts ACDSee to automatically advance to the next image, allowing you to organize entire folders without moving your hands from the keyboard!
- Photo management: In addition to AI Keywords, ACDSee comes pre-loaded with a variety of usable sample quick keyword sets to speed up the process of manually assigning keywords. Export keyword lists and share them with other users. Save countless hours of manual entry by importing established keyword lists. Add ratings, tags, categories, customizable color labels, and other metadata to further organize your photos.
- Dynamic filtering: Stay organized by assigning Categories and Keywords to your images. Multi-select Categories or Keywords for efficient labeling or deleting. Filter through long lists by typing the Category or Keyword you’re looking for and watch as the filtered results are dynamically generated. Dig as deep as you need to with large Keyword and Category trees knowing ACDSee is optimized to perform.
- Advanced AND/OR Search: Choose from numerous search criteria, including ACDSee Metadata and EXIF & IPTC fields. Built-in logic for AND/OR states let you narrow down results to a microscopic level.
- Quick search: Launch your search with Quick Search and get results right away. Choose from various search types and fine tune your results.
- Location data: Add photo locations from anywhere in the world to your photos. You can then recall and view that information for reference at any time. Use the map to select groups of files for further workflow steps, and select photos for display in View mode.
- Video Metadata support: View GPS details and standard metadata fields in the Properties pane’s default view, or dive deeper into the video and audio streams with the All Video Metadata view. With Advanced Search supporting video-specific fields, and Auto Categories to search your video files, you have everything you need to organize and manage your videos – on your terms.
- Performance and Database maintenance: Fast launching, mode-switching, working with keywords & categories, RAW decoding, and database maintenance, ACDSee lets you focus on the task in hand.
Management & Workflow
Reject Tag
Not every frame makes the cut, so stop letting the missed ones slow you down. Mark blinks, blurs, and duds with the new Reject Tag as you review, then pull up your rejects and clear them out in a single pass. Take every shot with confidence knowing ACDSee will keep you sorted.
ACDSee Activity Manager
No more waiting for tasks to complete—thanks to the Activity Manager, background processing lets you continue working while operations run. With multi-threading, multiple activities run simultaneously, so you can import, export (one of the most requested enhancements), convert and resize batches of photos, apply Develop presets, and detect faces and keywords, all without ever slowing down. Track progress in real-time and experience a faster, more efficient workflow designed for high-volume demands.
ACDSee Tabs
ACDSee Tabs function just like web browser tabs, providing a familiar and intuitive experience. Open multiple folders within a single window and effortlessly switch between tabs to navigate your files, simplifying your workflow and enhancing your productivity with the clean, streamlined interface that brings all your digital asset collections together in one place. Pick up right where you left off – ACDSee Tabs retain your open tabs between sessions, making it easy to resume previous searches and folder views without starting over.
Batch functions
Batch renaming is a dynamic and efficient process for renaming multiple files. Add or remove text, use a template, rename in series, and more; the options are almost endless. Resize multiple images to any dimension, following pixels or percentages, along either edge, or as a print size. Relative positioning functionality allows you to crop multiple images in seconds. Add watermarks with accuracy – particularly beneficial for applying watermarks to a batch of images.
Time-saving tip!
Upgrading to the latest version of ACDSee Photo Studio is quick and easy. If you have ACDSee Photo Studio 2022 or higher installed, then upon first launch of ACDSee Photo Studio 2027 your options and select Presets will be automatically imported, allowing you to pick up where you left off without skipping a beat. If upgrading from ACDSee Photo Studio 2024 or higher, your custom keyboard shortcuts will also be automatically imported. Note: importing can only be done from the same edition. E.g. Ultimate to Ultimate.
Helpful tip!

Helpful tip!
Using Develop Mode in ACDSee is a form of non-destructive editing. The software uses a set of instructions or parameters, rather than adjusting the actual pixels and altering the original image. When you save the photo, you are saving those instructions, meaning you can go back and remove, add, or adjust the previously set instructions at any time.
- Non-Destructive AI Masking: Save countless hours editing your images, including RAW files, using the Artificial Intelligence (AI)-powered masking tools in Develop Mode. The Masking Group gives you a way to quickly create intricate masks by loosely outlining objects in your image with the AI Object tool and letting the AI make the complex selection. Automatically mask the subject, background, or sky in your photos using AI Sky, AI Subject, or AI Background. These masks allow you to easily edit specific parts of your photos, while preserving the original file, to truly bring out the best in your photos non-destructively.
- AI Actions: The AI Actions panel in Edit Mode houses helpful one-click selection features: AI Select Subject, AI Select Sky, AI Select Background, AI Remove Background, AI Blur Background, AI Black & White Background, and new AI Hair. The AI gives you precise edges when selecting your subject and masks with significantly fine details.
