Your folders, not our catalog.

A fast, RAW-ready home for the way photographers work.

Buy Katami Everything it does

Built for the neglected parts of your workflow.

The sorting, the checking, the drive in the drawer, the photo you can't find. Seeing a photo without opening an editor. And the right to keep whats yours truly yours. Katami takes all this in mind, and it keeps finding more.

Your folders

Nothing is imported

Katami reads your photos where they already live, on this Mac, a drive or a NAS, and never copies, moves or renames them. Remove a folder and it forgets what it knew, never the files.

On your Mac

Your photos are never uploaded.

No analytics. No tracking.

Judge the frame

A viewer for judging, not just looking

Is it sharp? Did the highlights clip? Where did the camera think it was focusing? One key each. Right-click any photo in the Finder and choose Open With Katami: the viewer, and nothing else.
