	PhotoKeyworder	Rushlot
What it is	A web service whose AI writes titles, descriptions and keywords for photos, vectors and videos, up to 500 files at a time. It also has a Lightroom Classic plugin. [1]	A Mac app for stock footage. It checks each clip, drafts the metadata from your own title, lets you review it, then uploads to your own accounts on four marketplaces.
Video	Yes, with “Multi-Frame Analysis”; its pages do not say how many frames. One video costs 3 credits, one image 1. [1][2]	Video only. Each clip is checked against each marketplace’s specs (frame rate, resolution, duration, codec) and repaired on a copy, never the original: audio removed, HEVC re-encoded to H.264.
Photos	Yes, and vectors: JPG, PNG and EPS files. [1]	No. Footage only: no photos, vectors or illustrations.
Metadata in the file	Embedded into JPG, PNG and EPS files. For video, “Metadata not embedded directly into video files”: you get a CSV in Standard, Adobe Stock or Shutterstock format. [1]	Writes the title and keywords into the video file as XMP, right before upload. Adobe Stock and Pond5 read it. Shutterstock and Getty do not, so Rushlot fills their CSV import as well. Measured on a real account, 2026-09-07, 2026-09-08, 2026-09-11
Getty Images and iStock	“ESP Compatible CSVs”, described as ready for DeepMeta and QHero. [1]	Uploads to your Getty Images account through Getty’s own web uploader in your browser, and fills Getty’s CSV import.
Pond5	Not named on its home or pricing pages. [1][2]	Uploads over FTPS to your Pond5 account. Pond5 reads the title and keywords Rushlot writes into the file.
Uploads to agencies	Its home page mentions no upload to an agency and no FTP. [1]	Four: Adobe Stock, Shutterstock, Pond5 and Getty Images, to your own accounts. SFTP for Adobe Stock (qualified accounts), FTPS for Shutterstock and Pond5, Getty’s own web uploader in your browser.
Runs on	The web, plus a plugin for Lightroom Classic. [1]	Mac with Apple Silicon (M1 or newer). Windows (x64) comes after the Mac version.
Price	30-day plans from 8.99 € (400 images or 133 videos) to 269 € (30,000 images). Credit packs from 9.99 € list price for 300, which never expire. Prices exclude VAT. 20 free credits when you register. [2][1]	20 clips free, no card. Then 19 € a month or 159 € a year, for 150 clips a month. No commission on your sales.
Interface languages	Eight: English, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Polish and Dutch. [1]	App in English and French. Every value it writes for a marketplace is in English.
AI	Not named: “Our advanced AI”. [1]	A cloud model drafts the metadata from your title and a few small frames; the clip itself is not sent. Latin species names are checked against the WoRMS register first.
