At Aftershoot, we’re building more than just AI tools; we’re building a global community of photographers who spend less time behind their screens and more time behind the lens. Every feature we create, every update we ship, is designed to make post-processing easier, faster, and smarter for photographers around the world. From culling to editing to retouching. Our AI tools do all the heavy lifting, so photographers can focus on what they do best: capturing moments, telling stories, and creating magic.

We’re a fast-growing, passionate team backed by over 30,000+ photographers and $10 M+ in ARR.

But we’re just getting started. Our mission is clear: solve the biggest pain points in photography, and keep evolving with photographers who use our tools daily.

If you care deeply about building meaningful products, working with curious and driven teammates, and being part of a team that genuinely loves what they do, we’d love to meet you.

Let’s create the future of AI in photography, together.
