Get started

How to use imagic: the five steps

Import, Analyse, Review & Cull, Edit, Export, with a video walkthrough and the culling keyboard shortcuts.

What the free trial counts

500 exports, no card, full imagic Max. Importing, culling and editing never count, only exported photos do.

The installer was blocked on Windows

The blue SmartScreen screen, a blocked file, or "Error 5: Access is denied", and what to do about each.

Licences, devices and working offline

One active device per licence, moving to a new computer, and the 14 days imagic keeps working without a connection.

Culling

How to cull sports photos: Action mode and peak picks

Set Subject to Action, let pose grouping split each burst into phases, keep the peak frame, and re-cut to any number instantly.

AI agents, MCP and the command line (imagic Max)

Connect your AI client

Setup for fourteen MCP clients, including the command for the packaged app (imagic.exe --mcp).

Run a whole shoot from an agent

Step by step: connect, ingest, cull, apply your style and export by asking for it.

Every tool, with its parameters

The 21 tools the MCP server and the imagic tool command expose, generated from the server itself.

What to ask your AI for

Real jobs mapped to the tools that do them: cull a wedding, learn your style, pick a gallery.

What changed

Changelog

Every release, what is new, what improved and what was fixed.

Try it on your own shoot
