Myeown Brain learns how you edit from your own Lightroom catalogs, then edits new photos your way, in Lightroom Classic and Lightroom. Your photos never leave your computer, and you buy it once.

How it works
From your finished work to your edit
1
It learns from your finished work.
Point it at your Lightroom catalogs. It reads your finished edits and your original photos, right on your computer. No exported JPEGs needed.
Learn. The catalogs your Brain learned from, and the look it learned.
2
It finds each of your looks.
Deliver a warm film look for some clients and black & white for others? Myeown Brain finds each look in your finished photos, shows you examples, and learns a separate Brain for each one you choose, so no look gets blended into another. If two looks are really one style to you, learn them together.
Found looks. Name each look and choose which ones get their own Brain. Illustration.
3
It edits thousands of photos in one go.
Select photos in Lightroom Classic, or drag in a folder for Lightroom, and press Process. Each photo gets your edit as a single history step named after your Brain, so you can compare and undo as usual. Light or dark, the app follows your taste.
Process. Choose your options, press Process, and watch it work: here 594 photos, in dark mode.
4
It keeps learning from your fixes.
When you adjust a photo after processing, it learns from that too, and gets closer to you with every shoot.
Works with Lightroom Classic and Lightroom
Use it as a plugin inside Lightroom Classic, or as a standalone app on its own.
As a Lightroom Classic plugin
Select photos and choose File ▸ Plug-in Extras ▸ Myeown Brain. Each photo gets a history step, so you can compare and undo as usual.
As a standalone app
Open Myeown Brain on its own and drag in the folder of photos you edit in Lightroom. Myeown Brain saves each photo's settings where Lightroom reads them, and keeps a backup so you can put everything back in one click.
Standalone. Drag a folder of photos onto the window; open it in Lightroom afterwards and the edits are there.
What it sets on every photo
All learned from your own finished photos.
White balanceTemperature and tint, the way you set them for each kind of light.
Exposure and tonesExposure, highlights, shadows, whites and blacks.
Level horizonsStraightens each photo the way you do, learned from your own straightening, Upright included.
Your lookYour profile and the finishing touches you use, like contrast, clarity, curves and vignette.
Your Detail settingsYour sharpening and noise reduction.
Lens correctionsAdobe's lens profile for your lens, if you want it.
Private
Nothing is uploaded.
Even the learning happens on your computer, not just the editing. Your photos, catalogs and clients' faces never go to anyone's servers, and it edits without an internet connection. All it ever sends is a quick license check, about once a month, and a check for updates when you ask.
Cost
Buy it once.
No subscription, no per-photo fees, no credits to top up. Edit as many photos as you like, as often as you like.
Yours
Your style, not a house style.
It learns only from your own finished work, so it edits like you. Your Brain is saved as a file you own and keep.
Unlimited
As many Brains as you like.
Make a Brain for each kind of work, or for each style you edit in. Each one learns on its own, and there's no extra cost for any of them.
Brains. Keep a Brain for each style and switch between them in one click.Planned
Coming later: share your Brain with other Myeown Brain users.
We're planning a way to send your Brain to another photographer as a single file, so they can edit their own photos in your style. Only the style would be shared, never your photos or catalogs.

Private beta
Download the beta
You'll need the beta key you were sent (it looks like MB-7K2QF-…). Version 0.1.15.
Install it. The beta isn't signed yet, so your computer may ask first. Mac: right-click the file and choose Open. Windows: choose More info ▸ Run anyway.
Open Myeown Brain, paste your key and choose Activate. This needs the internet once; after that it works offline.
Find it in Lightroom Classic under File ▸ Plug-in Extras ▸ Myeown Brain (restart Lightroom Classic after installing). For Lightroom, open the app on its own and drag in a folder of photos.
Try Jamieson's Brain
Want to see Myeown Brain at work before your own Brain has learned? Try the Brain trained on Jamieson's finished work. Type your beta key to download it.
Then open Myeown Brain (version 0.1.9 or newer), click the Brain name at the top left, choose Import a Brain… and pick the file. It sits next to your own Brain, and you can switch back any time.
