Bracket Management for AI Photo Editing
AI Photo Grouping Overview
When you select photos for an AI photo editing order, our Web UI automatically consolidates them into logical groups using the file's EXIF metadata (e.g. capture date and time). This process is essential for:
Pricing Accuracy: By identifying bracketed sets, the system provides an accurate price estimate based on the expected final number of delivered photos.
Output Quality: The AI requires accurate grouping to process exposure and detail correctly; properly grouped images ensure high-quality outputs.
Important:
The visual groupings you see in the Web UI are exactly what will be submitted to the AI model for photo editing during initial order creation or if you add additional photos. It is vital that you review and correct your groups before submitting, as incorrect groupings will lead to poor editing results.
Grouping Options
The system defaults to Automatic grouping, but you must verify these results. Use the Grouping Method dropdown on the right-hand panel to make adjustments if necessary:
Automatic Grouping
This is the default setting upon loading images. The system attempt to intelligently group images based on the file metadata.
Fixed Groups
If your photos follow a consistent bracket pattern (e.g., always 3 or 5 photos per set) and the Automatic Grouping is inaccurate, select Fixed Groups. Define the exact number of photos per bracket, and the UI will re-group all images based on that value.
Manual Group Management
For precise control over specific images within groups, use the manual adjustment tools:
Select the specific group in the Gallery that needs a change.
A Group Management panel will open on the right.
Select individual images and click Modify Grouping.
Choose to either Create a new group or Move the selected files to a different existing group.
Removing Files
To ensure only the correct images are sent to the editing system, you can remove unwanted files:
Delete a full group: Click on the group and select the Trash Can icon next to the heading "Grouped Images".
Remove an individual file: Select the checkbox for the specific file and choose Delete.
Verification Before Submission
To ensure the best results, please review the final groupings before submission. Please ensure that:
No single images are accidentally grouped together.
All Groups are complete and contain the correct number of exposures.
Any blurred or unwanted photos are removed before submitting the order.
