AI for Lightroom Classic that develops photo by photo.
Sekondo connects Claude or ChatGPT to Lightroom Classic. You tell it how you want the shoot and your assistant develops in your catalogue, photo by photo, each with its own adjustment.
What Sekondo does in Lightroom Classic.
It learns from you, and this is just a sample. If Lightroom Classic can do it, Sekondo does it.
- Reads from the catalogue the photos still waiting to be developed, RAW or JPG.
- Sets the white balance each light asks for: neon, tungsten or LED.
- Lifts the exposure on what came out dark and holds the highlights back so they do not blow.
- Opens the shadows, cleans the noise where the ISO climbed and adjusts the tone curve.
- Treats subject and background separately, each with its mask, in backlit shots.
- Crops and straightens the horizon where the shot was handheld.
- Takes to black and white the one that asks for it.
- Sets aside duplicate photos without deleting any.
- Imports photos into the catalogue and stacks the copy that comes back from Photoshop with its original.
- Groups the photos by job into collections.
- Exports each group for print and for social. If you ask, with the name you want; on its own it does not rename or delete any file.
- Applies Auto Tone.
- Adjusts the colour temperature, vibrance and saturation, and each colour separately.
- Applies your presets.
- Adds grain and blurs the background.
How to brief it.
Like someone who just walked into the studio: it knows Lightroom Classic and knows nothing about your client. You tell it which catalogue, what you want and the judgement to apply. Before touching anything it reads the whole thing, and when it is done it tells you what has changed. Each command is a single step in the history: if you do not like it, Cmd+Z and it is back as it was.
It works on your computer, with your Claude or your ChatGPT. The file never leaves your machine.
Frequently asked questions about Sekondo in Lightroom Classic.
Does it touch my originals?
No. The develop is reversible and stays saved in the catalogue, just as when you develop yourself.
How do I connect it the first time?
The installer puts the panel in Lightroom Classic. Open it and, the first time, press Connect. When the light turns green, you are connected.
Does it work with RAW?
Yes. It measures every file before touching it, RAW or JPG, even if they arrive mixed.
Does it work with Claude and with ChatGPT?
Both. With Claude desktop and with ChatGPT through Codex, the assistant inside its desktop app, not ChatGPT in the browser. You use your own subscription.
Does my file get uploaded anywhere?
Not to us: Sekondo never stores your files on any server. The bridge runs on your computer and talks to your Adobe app locally. To work, your assistant has to read: whatever it needs - text, measurements, sometimes a screenshot - travels to the assistant you chose. Never the file.
You create.
Sekondo does the rest.
