Essential AI Tags for Photo Culling

CoreViz uses four key tags to automatically assess photo quality:

Good Quality Tag:

• Identifies photos that are sharp, well-exposed, and properly composed
• Excludes images with closed eyes, awkward poses, or technical issues
• Your go-to tag for final selections

Eyes Closed Tag:

• Detects when subjects have their eyes closed or partially closed
• Helps eliminate photos where the main subject isn't looking at the camera
• Essential for portrait and event photography

Blurry Tag:

• Identifies out-of-focus or motion-blurred images
• Catches camera shake, subject movement, and focus issues
• Saves time by removing technically flawed shots

Bad Exposure Tag:

• Detects over-exposed and under-exposed images
• Identifies photos with poor lighting or exposure problems
• Helps maintain consistent image quality
