A Lightroom Alternative That Actually Saves Time
Stop paying monthly to drag sliders. Describe what you want instead.
Summrs is intelligent batch color grading for photographers who need speed, consistency, and control. Describe the look you're chasing and Summrs handles the masks, tones, and nuance automatically, adapting to each photo's unique lighting. You get studio-level results in seconds, without the grind of traditional editing.
The Problem
Lightroom costs $10/month to drag sliders
You're paying Adobe monthly for the privilege of manually adjusting exposure, temperature, tint, highlights, shadows, whites, blacks, clarity, vibrance, saturation—for every single photo. You learned the interface, bought the presets, and you're still spending hours per shoot. There has to be a faster way.
Why Alternatives Fall Short
Most alternatives just copy the same interface
Darktable, RawTherapee, Capture One—they all give you the same panels, the same sliders, the same learning curve. You're still doing the same manual work. The tool changed, but your workflow didn't. Switching from Lightroom to another slider-based editor doesn't save you time.
Skip the sliders entirely
Type "warm golden hour with soft shadows" and Summrs handles exposure, temperature, curves, and HSL for you. It reads each photo's lighting and adapts your description into precise adjustments. First 10 photos are free. No subscription, no Adobe account, no slider fatigue.
