RapidPhoto overview

RapidPhoto is a fast, native batch photo editor for macOS that processes up to 500 images at once, entirely on-device. Built with Swift 6 and optimized for Apple Silicon (M1–M5), it handles entire photo shoots in seconds with a GPU-accelerated Core Image pipeline.

Batch processing at scale
  • Drop a folder of up to 500 photos or import directly from Apple Photos, then apply adjustments, crops, watermarks, renaming, and format conversions in a single pass.
  • Apply All pushes one edit to every image in the batch, with selective skip for shots you want to keep untouched.
  • Built for photographers, e-commerce sellers, content creators, real estate agents, event photographers, and stock contributors.
RAW support for every major camera

  • Full 16-bit pipeline. 60 MP RAW files load instantly on Apple Silicon.
Powerful editing tools

Creative Panel for local retouching
