photoKam Radar — photoKam Radar - Photo Manager & Editor for Windows & macOS

find, cull, and edit hundreds of thousands of photos on Windows & macOS

Sweep, cull, and edit hundreds of thousands of photos fast — a Windows & macOS photo manager & editor with pro-grade RAW editing, AI skin retouch, and 37 presets.

photoKam Radar

Your photos are scattered across external drives and folders. photoKam Radar quietly indexes them all — no folders to add. Find the shot you want in seconds, then finish it with pro-grade RAW editing and AI skin retouch, all in one app. Indexing and editing don't change your originals, and your photos are never uploaded.

01

Why photoKam Radar

01

Everything is indexed — no folders to add

It quietly indexes your computer and drives in the background. Plug in an external drive or create a new folder — there is nothing for you to do. Originals stay where they are; only the index lives on your computer.

02

Find any shot instantly

Filter by camera, lens, date, and folder, and jump to any point in time with the calendar. Pull out just that day's shots from a specific lens in seconds, even among hundreds of thousands.

03

Edit right where you culled

pro-grade RAW editing (curves, HSL, color grading, LUT), AI skin retouch, and 37 presets. Find, cull, and edit without hopping between apps.

02

Key features

Views & browsing

Grid, custom tiles, and list views let you sweep large libraries fast, while camera/lens/date/folder filters and calendar jump surface the shot you want. Supports RAW (CR2·CR3·ARW·NEF·DNG) and pairs RAW with JPG.

Large view

See the histogram, the in-focus area (on supported cameras), and overexposure (clipping) warnings together to pick keepers with confidence.

Editing & presets

Refine with curves, HSL, color grading, LUT, blending, and masks at a professional level, and set the mood fast with 37 presets (including 15 Japanese-mood and 2 European-mood). AI skin retouch and magic-select masks touch up just the area you choose.

New preset "Paris White"

Pulls every color toward white and keeps only blues and oranges/browns. Even an overcast city turns into a calm, airy Parisian street.

Portrait retouching (beta)

Natural results for faces and bodies alike. Refine skin, eyes, mouth, makeup, face shape and figure in one place.

The left (before) is an AI-generated person; the right (after) is that same photo actually edited with photoKam Radar's portrait retouching.

03

Free vs. licensed

photoKam Radar is free with every feature. Browsing, culling, large view, editing, AI skin retouch, and presets are identical in the free and licensed versions. The only difference is a watermark.

ItemFreeLicensed
All features (browse, edit, AI, presets)AvailableAvailable
Watermark on edit view & exported photosDiagonal watermarkNo watermark

The free version adds a faint diagonal watermark to the edit preview and exported photos. Register a license and it is gone.

04

Buying & registering a license

Copy the activation code from the app and email it to exapeak@naver.com; we issue your license. Paste it into the app or open it as a file. Each license is for use on one computer, with no expiry.

05

Privacy

Photos, index, and edit settings all stay on your computer, and AI runs entirely on your machine. The app uses the internet only to load map tiles and to check and download updates (version info only); it never sends your photos or index.

06

System requirements

  • OS: Windows 10 / 11 (64-bit); macOS 13.3 or later (Apple Silicon, M1 or newer)
  • RAW conversion and AI models are built in — nothing extra to install
07

FAQ

Are my original photos changed?

Indexing and editing don't change your originals; edits are saved as new files via Export. The one exception is Rotate in large view, which writes to the original when you use it (EXIF preserved).

What's the difference between free and licensed?

The features are the same. The free version shows a watermark; the licensed version has none.

Can I use it on another computer?

One license covers one computer. To use it on another computer, please purchase a new license.

Are my photos sent anywhere?

No. All processing happens locally.
