Excire Foto 2027 announces update with advanced video search

Posted on Nov 11, 2026 by Lily Smith

Excire Foto 2027, the AI-powered photo-management software, has received a major update introducing advanced video search and new organisation tools.

The update – which is free for all Excire Foto 2027 owners – introduces an array of new time-saving features, including advanced video indexing, tools to search for specific moments within clips, video frame extraction and reverse geocoding.

Designed for content creators, videographers, photographers and hybrid shooters who work with both still images and video, the update makes it easier to browse, organise and search for content across a mixed media library.

Users can find specific videos via specialised AI-powered search tools: natural-language content search, visible text search, people search, face search, keyword search and similarity search. Users can then open a matching clip to see the precise point where the desired content appears. Individual frames can also be saved as photos and managed alongside other images in the database.

New tools in the update:

Advanced video indexing

Excire Foto 2027 analyses each video file and extracts a range of frames that represent the video’s content. These frames are automatically keyworded; they also make footage searchable through natural-language prompt search, face and people search, keyword search, and similarity search, all of which help users retrieve specific clips based on their contents.

Find specific moments within videos

After searching for content, users can open a matching video from the results to review the precise point where that content appears. This makes it easier to locate a particular person, subject, or scene within a clip.

Control over extracted frames

Users can add or remove extracted frames, add metadata to those frames, and use individual frames as references for similarity searches. Adding or removing searchable frames is non-destructive and leaves the original video untouched.

Save video frames as photos

Individual frames can be saved as separate photos without leaving Excire Foto 2027. Once saved, these images can be brought into Excire Foto, analyzed, searched, culled, and exported just like standard image files.

Automatic location metadata with reverse geocoding

Excire Foto 2027 can use a file’s existing GPS coordinates to identify the city and country where it was captured and add that information to the corresponding metadata fields.

Excire Foto 2027 uses specialised AI that runs locally on the user’s computer for complete privacy. The program is available as a one-time purchase with no subscription fees, and the update is free for existing Foto 2027 owners.

The new features complement the program’s existing photo-management tools, including intelligent text recognition, Map View, automatic keywording, duplicate detection and AI-assisted culling.
