digiKam

digiKam is a free, open-source photo manager and image editor for photographers managing large collections of photos and videos. It combines library organization with editing and tools for finding images by their content or metadata.

• Collection organization: Import photos and videos from cameras, smartphones and other devices, then sort them into albums with tags, labels and ratings.
• AI tagging and faces: Enrich image metadata with AI-generated tags and ratings, and automatically detect and tag faces to find photos of specific people.
• Photo search: Find images using plain English queries or criteria such as dates, tags, geolocation and camera properties, with an interactive map for location searches.
• Editing and batch processing: Process RAW files, edit JPEGs, adjust color, crop and retouch photos, or apply edits across multiple images at once.
• Sharing and publishing: Export selected images to social networks and cloud services, or create slideshows and web galleries.

Collections can stay on local drives, removable media or network storage. The database can reside locally or on a remote server, so a library doesn't have to live entirely on one computer. You can view and edit image metadata and open preferred external editing tools from your collection. Exports to social networks and cloud services send selected images to those destinations.
