Frequently asked questions
What changes with the subject code resolver?
Subject code is no longer guessed in isolation. It is proposed from editorial context plus IPTC
taxonomy candidates to improve consistency.
Can I create a profile from a tagged photo?
Yes. Import one metadata-tagged reference photo, initialize the profile, then refine required fields
before setting it as default.
Is people recognition mandatory?
No. It is optional per series. You can enable it when needed, validate identities manually, or skip it.
Can I edit all AI-generated fields?
Yes. Every IPTC field stays editable before export, including titles, descriptions, keywords,
and subject code.
How long does Recent keep deliverables?
Recent stores deliverables for 24 hours, then automatically removes them from the server.
