From raw shoot to upload-ready in three steps.

No prompts to tweak, no spreadsheets to fill in. We handle the metadata so you can get back to shooting.

Bulk upload

Add JPG, PNG, WEBP, TIFF, BMP images or MP4, MOV, MKV, AVI, WEBM videos in one batch. Drop a whole shoot at once.

AI generates metadata

Our vision model analyzes each asset and writes titles, descriptions, and up to 50 platform-optimized keywords. For video, we auto-extract the sharpest key frames.

Review and export

Edit keywords inline using our keyword tools. Export platform-specific CSV for Adobe Stock, Shutterstock, iStock, or embed metadata directly into files via ExifTool.

Fast to run, and built to pass review.

iStock Keyword Optimization

The sharpest iStock engine we know of. Your keywords come out as the ones iStock actually approves, each one weighed against your image so anything that doesn't fit is dropped. The result: cleaner metadata and fewer rejections from your very first upload.

Editorial metadata mode

Auto-format descriptions with location and date per editorial platform specs. One toggle applies the correct format across your entire batch.

Batch-wide context

Add a shoot brief once and PixelKeyAI uses it to keep subjects, terminology, and tone consistent across every image and video in your upload.

Privacy-first approach

Your content stays private. No permanent storage, no data training, no tracking. Process with confidence knowing your files are only used for your keywords.

Platform compliance checks

Live validation badges for Adobe Stock, Shutterstock, iStock, and Pond5. Catch keyword count violations, title length issues, and video duration limits before you export, so fewer submissions come back rejected.

One-click batch export

Export CSV tailored to each platform, or get a ZIP with your originals plus auto-run scripts that embed metadata directly into file headers via ExifTool.

The most accurate iStock keyword engine for stock contributors.

iStock rejects submissions that stray from the keywords it approves. PixelKeyAI keeps your keywords on-list and true to the image, so more of your work passes review the first time and shows up in the right searches, with less back-and-forth.

Speaks iStock's language

Your keywords come out as the ones iStock actually approves, so submissions don't get bounced for off-list or unrecognized terms.

Every keyword earns its place

Each keyword is weighed against what's really in your shot. Anything that doesn't belong is dropped before you export, so your metadata stays accurate.

No embarrassing mismatches

It won't tag a child's photo with grown-up keywords or let stray place-names creep in, the small slips that quietly get submissions rejected.

Built and tested against real iStock submissions. Turn it on per batch for 3× the credits.

Keyword your catalog without leaving Lightroom.

New and free: select photos in Lightroom Classic, run PixelKeyAI, and the titles, captions and keywords land in your metadata panel. Same engine as the website, same credits, no export and re-import.

Straight into your catalog

Select photos, run the plugin, and titles, captions and keywords land in your metadata panel. No export, no upload tab, no CSV round-trip.

iStock Precision included

The same iStock keyword engine as the website, one checkbox away in the run dialog, at 3× the credits.

Auto-keyword on export

Add PixelKeyAI Auto-Keyword to any export preset and every export keywords its source photos automatically.

See how it works

Buy credits once. They never expire.

No subscription and no monthly quota that resets while you are not looking. One balance covers photos, videos, and both keywording modes, in any mix.

1 image = 1 credit
1 video = 2 credits
iStock Precision = 3× credits
Universal keywording
1 credit per image, 2 per video

Titles, descriptions, and up to 50 keywords written straight into your files. Works with Adobe Stock, Shutterstock, Pond5, Depositphotos, and anywhere that takes free-text keywords.

✦ iStock Precision
3× credits

iStock will not take free-text keywords the way the other agencies do. Terms it does not recognise are dropped or swapped before your file reaches search, so a generic keyword set loses much of its reach on the way in.

Precision mode sends terms iStock's search actually indexes, so your file turns up in the searches buyers are running. One extra download covers hundreds of keyworded files.
