AI Photo Analysis for Immich Self-Hosters

Connect a publicly reachable HTTPS Immich instance, start a sync when you want fresh photos, then choose which imported image to critique.

What You Can Do with Immich + Picalyze

Complement Immich's photo management with photography-focused AI analysis

API Key Connection

Connect using your Immich API key. No OAuth complexity. Your instance URL and API key are securely stored and encrypted.

Album Sync

Select an album or source and start a sync when you want fresh photos. Picalyze does not continuously poll your instance.

Imported EXIF Context

Keep supported camera and exposure details beside each imported photo so its critique retains useful shooting context.

AI Analysis Beyond ML

Complement Immich's machine learning with Picalyze's photography-focused AI. Get composition feedback, style analysis, and improvement tips.

Explicit Critique

Importing never spends a credit. Open a saved photo and start its critique only when you are ready.

Public HTTPS Required

Because Picalyze runs on a hosted backend, your Immich origin must be publicly reachable over HTTPS. Local IP addresses and plain HTTP are not supported.
