Cull Me uP Lab
A quiet technical room for photographers, reviewers and workflow nerds who want to look under the hood. Performance, AI transparency, algorithms and workflow choices — separated so the main site can stay simple.
Why a Lab?
The Light Table should feel simple. The engineering behind it does not have to be simplistic.
Cull Me uP is built to feel light, fast and photographic. The Lab explains the technical choices behind that feeling: what we optimize, what we suggest, what we never do silently, and what stays under the photographer’s control.
The main site is designed for clarity. The Lab is for people who want details.
If you are testing Cull Me uP seriously, reviewing it for an audience, or simply want to understand how the app thinks about RAW folders, performance, AI and workflow safety, start here.
Lab sections
Four ways to look under the hood.
Each Lab page focuses on one technical question. No marketing fog, no magic claims, no black-box language.
Performance
RAW decoding, grid display, full-screen navigation, demo video slots and benchmark notes.
AI transparency
How Nala Assist is designed around trust: simple structures, visible suggestions and easy verification.
Algorithms
Bursts, similar frames, focus stacks, near-duplicates and the logic behind signals, not verdicts.
Workflow choices
Why Cull Me uP stays before the editor: file-respecting workflow, XMP thinking, no heavy catalog trap.
A simple principle
Technical credibility should not make the product feel complicated.
The Lab is intentionally separated from the main product pages. Photographers who want the feeling can stay in the story. Photographers who want the details can open the hood.
Cull Me uP is not trying to impress photographers with engineering vocabulary. It is trying to make the first pass feel lighter, faster and more trustworthy.
The Lab exists to show why that is not accidental.
Want the short version?
Cull Me uP is the missing step between the card and the edit. The Lab explains how we make that step fast, visible and under your control.
