Can Excire Foto automatically tag people in a photo?
Unfortunately, Excire Foto does not have an automatic tagging feature that can apply a name to all search results at once. The following workflow - searching for a person, selecting all results, and then manually tagging them with the name - is actually the intended process.
Current Workflow:
- Use "Search for People" to find all photos of a specific person
- Select all results (Shift+click)
- Manually assign the name tag to all at once
Why there's no auto-tagging: The AI needs human verification to ensure accuracy, especially since facial recognition isn't 100% perfect. This prevents incorrect automatic tagging that could be harder to fix later.
Tips to make your process more efficient:
- Use the person search to find most instances, then manually verify and tag
- Consider creating collections for frequently searched people
- Use the comparison view to verify uncertain matches before tagging
We understand this feels like it should be automated, but the current system ensures accuracy while still saving you significant time compared to manual searching through your entire library.
