PIQT — NO. 00FRONTISPIECE · YOUR LIBRARY, RANKED
Foreword

Storage is not a collection.

Your phone dumps every selfie, milestone, portrait, experience, receipt, screenshot ... into one big bucket. It will not tell you which ones are good, and it will never make the other 9,999 worth opening.

Your phone needs a curator. Curation is why people love museums: interpret a collection, organize it, and make it worth visiting. Photos gives you a vault and a search box. Piqt curates and gives you the collection.

Not a mockup

This is Piqt, running.

The plates on this page are illustrations of what Piqt does. This is what it actually looks like doing it.

Plate No. 01 · Rank

Your best shot is somewhere around photo 4,732.

Piqt scores every photo on five signals — Apple's on-device aesthetics, technical quality, a NIMA aesthetic model trained on 255,000 human-rated images, number and clarity of faces, and how rarely you shoot in that place — then reduces the blurred and the blown-out. The keepers float up. One pass through them and they're favorited in Photos for real, not in a private list Piqt keeps to itself.

Every score shows its work.

Tap any number to open the score sheet: each signal, each penalty, and a plain sentence on why this photo landed where it did. Disagree with the number? The scoring is adjustable. Move a slider and your whole library re-ranks on the spot without a rescan.

Duplicates are easy. Near-misses are the problem.

Eleven frames of the same jump. Four takes of the same face, one with the eyes open. They aren't duplicates, so Photos doesn't catch them. Piqt groups them by Apple feature print, picks the sharpest as keeper, and shows you similar photos side by side with the zoom linked. Swap the keeper or keep multiple, then clean out the rest.

Plate No. 04 · Find

Your screenshots are a filing cabinet, not junk.

Your fave recipes, travel receipts, the meme that had you rolling, the things you mean to buy. Piqt reads them on your phone and files them into collections, pulling out prices, dates, addresses and links so the one you need is a search away instead of 400 swipes back. Most apps call this clutter and offer to delete it. Piqt makes it work for you.

Piqt cannot delete your photos.

Not "won't." Cannot. When you clear a photo it moves to a "Piqt: To Delete" album and stays in your library until you finish the job in Apple's Photos, behind Apple's own confirmation. Change your mind on the way? Recover the whole album in a tap.

Plate No. 06 · Upkeep

One scan, then it keeps up.

Cleanup apps are a weekend project you do once and never repeat. Piqt watches the library rather than a snapshot of it, so the second visit takes a minute.

First scan

Piqt reads your library in resumable batches on the device's Neural Engine. Always on your device, not in a datacenter somewhere. Close the app and it picks up where it stopped. Tested on libraries to 100,000 photos.

After

New photos are scored as they arrive. Edited photos re-score. Nothing gets re-analyzed for the sake of it. When Piqt sees you took a great picture, it will let you know.

Forever

Every decision you make sticks. The keeper you swapped, the photo you saved, the one you favorited. Piqt only revisits them when you want to.

07
Provenance

Your photos stay yours.

The scoring models ship inside the app and run on your phone's Neural Engine. There's no cloud pass by default, no upload step, and no account needed. Anonymous usage counts help us find bugs — they never touch your photos or personal data. Turn them off in one tap if you'd rather not.

  • Scoring runs locally — Core ML and Apple Vision
  • No account, no sign-in, no email required
  • No ads. Anonymous usage counts only, opt-out anytime
  • Scores stay on-device and leave with the app
