Changelog

What has actually changed, newest first. PicsTag is maintained by a small studio, so this moves in bursts rather than on a release train.

Documentation, diagrams and bylines

  • The app page now carries a written reference for the CSV input format, the export schema and the common failure modes — previously this only existed in scattered FAQ answers.
  • Added diagrams to the alt text and metadata guides: a side-by-side of four alt texts for the same photo, and a map of where EXIF, IPTC and XMP actually sit inside a file.
  • Guides are now grouped by topic, carry a reading time, and link to their siblings.
  • Every guide has a named author and a byline.

First public release

  • The tool: drag-and-drop images or a CSV of URLs, tag and caption them with models running locally in the browser, review each tag, export to CSV or JSON.
  • Optional OpenRouter provider for people who want a more capable cloud model and are happy to bring their own API key.
  • WebGPU with an automatic WebAssembly fallback, and 8-bit quantised models so the first-run download is about 250 MB rather than a gigabyte.
  • Fifteen guides on image metadata, alt text and keywording.
