Meet AI Suggest · 1.1.1 preview

The frame gives it a start.
You give it the story.

A photograph cannot tell you every name, place, or reason. Add what you know. AI Suggest combines the image with your notes and assignment context, right beside the caption you are editing.

  1. 01 / ADD CONTEXT

    Start with a few notes.

    Write names, location, and what is happening in Caption. Your selected photo and assignment background provide the rest of the starting context.

  2. 02 / AI SUGGEST

    Build an editable draft.

    Choose English or Chinese and a writing style. AI Suggest uses the camera date and configured photo credit, with short follow-ups when essential facts are missing.

  3. 03 / YOUR REVIEW

    Keep the final say.

    Check the facts, refine the wording, and decide what stays. Existing captions get a preview before replacement. Nothing is automatically sent to the desk.

On your device

Photos and prompts stay on the device during generation. No cloud AI fallback or API key.

Inside your workflow

The draft lives beside your IPTC fields. Continue with templates, Code Replacement, and Send Check.

A draft you review

AI can make mistakes. Verify identities, place, date, and context before publishing a caption.

Card to picture desk

One continuous filing motion.

No tour of disconnected tools. Each step keeps the assignment, selected frame, metadata state, and delivery state in view.

  1. 01

    Bring in the frames that matter

    Lock your selects in-camera, then import only those frames. Start reviewing while the rest of the card is still copying.

  2. 02

    Get a draft. Make it yours.

    Add your notes, use AI Suggest for a first draft, then check the facts and complete the IPTC fields. Manual captioning is always available.

  3. 03

    Expand names without retyping

    Type a familiar wrapped code and PressKit expands it from your enabled Code Replacement files.

  4. 04

    Check, transmit, confirm

    Run Send Check, verify the connection and resolved path, then file by FTP, SFTP, or a chosen folder.

The working core

Built around the three things that get a picture filed.

01 / IPTC

Every field the desk expects, beside the frame.

Caption without leaving the visual context of the take. PressKit combines photographer details, assignment templates, and per-photo edits, then shows the write state before you move on.

  • IPTC IIM and XMP written together for JPEG
  • Required-field Send Check before delivery
  • RAW originals stay untouched; metadata lives in sidecars

02 / Code Replacement

Keep the speed already in your hands.

Load your Code Replacement files once. Wrapped codes expand as you type across editable metadata fields, while Quick Pick and roster controls keep repeated names within reach on touch devices.

  • Existing tab-separated code files
  • Expansion inside caption and IPTC fields
  • Files and priority available across your devices
03 / FTP & SFTP

Know what is going where before you press Send.

PressKit keeps the selected count, connection, destination path, file size, and transfer result explicit. Failed jobs stay visible and recoverable instead of disappearing into the background.

  • FTP, SFTP, and folder destinations
  • Resolved remote paths and filename rules
  • Persistent queue, progress, history, and manual retry

Three native platforms

One setup across every place you file.

Build the assignment on a Mac. Work touch-first on iPad. Finish a filing from an iPhone in the back of a car. Each experience is designed for its screen — not squeezed from one desktop layout.

Your setup travels. Templates, presets, profile, code files, field layouts, and connection configuration sync through your private iCloud database.

Your photographs stay local. Photos and session state remain on the device. Credentials stay in the system Keychain.

Bring the working parts with you

Interoperability stated plainly.

PressKit is designed around the files and delivery methods a working picture desk can inspect — without hiding format boundaries.

Files that have not reached the wire yet are private

No analytics. No advertising. No PressKit photo server.

Your photographs leave the device only when you explicitly send them to a destination you configured. Setup sync uses your own private iCloud database; purchases stay with Apple.
