People naturally avoid tasks they dislike. After capturing and editing, manually uploading the best shots becomes a burden.

Managing hundreds and thousands of photos per day is no longer a challenge. The days of manually selecting, uploading, tagging, cataloging and organizing photos are gone. Simple automation tools transform a collection of photos into a universally accessible and searchable asset.
In a world where 10 billion new photos are taken daily, organizations struggle to harness their visual content effectively. Is your growing image library under utilized? Current solutions present some or all of the following barriers to success.
People naturally avoid tasks they dislike. After capturing and editing, manually uploading the best shots becomes a burden.
Poor photo gallery structure reduces content visibility and stakeholder usage.
Improperly tagged photos are useless. Inconsistent and incomplete tagging makes photos hard to find.
Photos only create value through usage. Higher viewership transforms photos into valuable connections that drive demand - this requires a platform that effectively serves all stakeholders' needs.
PhotoNodes transforms decades of photography experience into a simple software platform interface. We combine multiple technologies to simplify photo management for all users. While AI powers our auto-tagging capabilities—detecting people, objects, text, and colors—our human-centered interfaces make this technology truly accessible. Our open architecture supports both existing customer AI models and best-in-class solutions. By streamlining workflows, PhotoNodes lets photographers and administrators focus on what matters: optimizing how people connect with their published photos.
Problem: Unclassified photos are vital for keeping communities informed and promoting base success. PAOs struggle with inconsistent, cumbersome systems for uploading, tagging, and distributing photos locally and to platforms like DVIDS. Without standardized processes, each PAO creates custom solutions, wasting time on HOW to manage photos rather than maximizing audience reach.
Solution: PhotoNodes simplifies the process with easy photo upload interfaces for photographers. PAOs benefit from a streamlined system to define tags and route photos based on these tags. The platform makes photos readily accessible through local command websites and DVIDS. This simplicity naturally scales up the chain of command, providing visibility across the ecosystem for senior offices like the Chief of Public Affairs for the US Army.
