Directory Crop

Directory Crop speeds up sorting bulk AI image outputs on Windows, macOS, and Linux. Open a folder of generations, crop out bad hands or extra limbs, and delete failed files with one click or one keypress. After each crop or delete, the app jumps to the next image so you can review hundreds of files without digging through file managers.

Photo editors built for single images slow you down when a Stable Diffusion run drops 200 variants. Directory Crop is built for that culling workflow: crop guidelines, optional output folders, metadata preservation, and keyboard shortcuts for next, previous, and delete. Images never leave your machine, which matters when prompts or outputs are private.

The free tier covers 100 crops per month before a watermark appears. Professional plans start at $9 per month for 1,000 crops, $19 for 5,000, or $49 for unlimited per user. Students, journalists, Java Champions, and beta testers can apply for free license keys. Install via direct download, Homebrew, Chocolatey, or winget.
