The hard truth

Stock buyers don't browse.
They search.

Your photo can be technically perfect โ€” but if your keywords don't match what buyers type into the search box, you don't get the sale. Period.

๐ŸŽฏ

Specific beats generic

"Great Blue Heron" gets the sale. "Bird" doesn't. Buyers searching for stock photos use precise terms โ€” and AI vision identifies subjects with the precision a human cataloguer would.

๐Ÿ“Š

Volume matters

Most agencies allow 30โ€“50 keywords per photo. Photographers who skimp at 10โ€“15 lose visibility on long-tail searches. MetaMagic generates up to 50 relevant keywords per shot.

๐ŸŒ

Location wins editorial

Editorial buyers search by location. "Pantheon, Rome, Italy" outsells "ancient building". MetaMagic reads GPS and adds accurate location keywords automatically.

Two modes

Microstock or editorial.
One toggle.

๐Ÿ›’

Microstock Mode

Optimized for commercial sales on Shutterstock, Adobe Stock, Pond5. Keywords focus on concepts, lifestyle, mood, and objects โ€” what buyers search for when they need a generic image for marketing.

Example caption:
"Modern office workspace with laptop and coffee, natural light, minimalist design."

๐Ÿ—ž๏ธ

Editorial Mode

AP / Reuters caption format for Getty, Alamy News, and editorial submissions. Includes location, date and factual description in the news industry standard format.

Example caption:
"ROME, ITALY โ€” MAY 14, 2026: Tourists gather at the Pantheon during golden hour."
