On your PC · Private · Never deletes your originals

Clear the clutter. Keep the photos that matter.

foto-org finds the duplicate, blurry and low-quality photos hiding in your collection, then builds a clean, organised archive of the ones you choose to keep — without ever deleting your originals.

The problem

Years of photos. Thousands of near-copies.

Phones and cameras make it easy to end up with the same shot ten times, plus the blurry misfires and stray screenshots in between. foto-org sorts through all of it for you.

Exact & similar duplicates

Finds identical copies and visually similar shots — resized, re-saved, or nearly the same — using perceptual matching.

Blurry & low-quality

Flags out-of-focus shots, bad exposure, tilted horizons and document scans, so you can review them at a glance.

The best of each group

Recommends the best version to keep from every duplicate group, based on resolution, camera data and file size.

How it works

Scan, choose, and build your archive.

1

Scan a folder

Point foto-org at any folder of photos. It scans quickly across all your processor cores, grouping duplicates and flagging low-quality shots — all on your own PC.

2

Choose what to keep

Review each group visually, with a full-resolution viewer. Keep the recommended best shot, or tick exactly the ones you want. You're always in control, and nothing is ever deleted.

3

Build your archive

foto-org copies the photos you keep into a tidy, date-ordered archive. Point it at an existing archive and it adds only the new photos — so your library stays organised as it grows.

Your originals are never touched.

foto-org only ever copies the photos you choose into your archive. It never moves, changes or deletes your original files — so there's nothing to undo, and nothing to worry about. Everything happens on your device; no photo ever leaves your PC.

Grows with you

One archive, always up to date.

The next time you have new photos to file, point foto-org at your existing archive. It recognises the way your archive is organised and adds only the genuinely new photos — skipping everything that's already there.
