Metadata is part of the work

Metadata is not a final decoration. For stock contributors, it affects how an image is discovered, reviewed, licensed, and remembered.

Titles, descriptions, keywords, locations, categories, and release notes all become part of the material's future life.

A repeatable review loop

MetaKit is built around a simple loop: browse a batch, add clues, generate draft metadata, review results, and export platform-ready files.

The workflow is designed for large sets of images and videos, where small repeated decisions quickly become real time.

AI supports judgment

AI helps most when it handles repetition without replacing human review. It can draft useful metadata, but the photographer still understands the context best.

The goal is faster preparation with better control, not blind automation.
