PhotoMentor is an AI photo critique service that scores a single image out of 10 and explains the reasoning behind the number. Users drop in a photo and receive a structured review covering composition, light, color, technical sharpness, timing and emotional impact. Problem areas are marked directly on the image with numbered bounding boxes, so a distracting element or a visual dead zone can be located rather than merely described. The system detects the genre automatically and applies matching criteria across more than 30 genres, from portraits and landscapes to street, wildlife, macro and architecture. The service is aimed at photographers who want to improve, from beginners who need concepts explained to experienced shooters who want a technical second opinion. It is also built to tell deliberate choices from mistakes, such as intentional motion blur versus camera shake, or grain used as style versus a poorly lit frame. Compared with asking a general chatbot, the pitch is a purpose-built flow: no prompt writing, with a score, categories, highlighted regions and a history of progress over time. The site recommends pairing it with human feedback for subjective artistic judgments. Beyond single images, a Bulk Culling workflow handles whole shoots. It groups related frames, ranks the strongest ones by technical quality and session theme, and shows why each finalist made the shortlist, optionally guided by a session brief. It runs in the browser and currently expects RAW files to be converted to JPEG or PNG first, which positions it differently from offline desktop culling tools such as Aftershoot. A Chrome extension shows scores inside Google Photos, and a Telegram bot offers another way in. Access starts free without registration, with paid tiers that lift analysis limits and add culling capacity. Photos are stored only for the user's personal history, are not shared with third parties or used for training, and history can be deleted from account settings.
