Proof Is In Beta
Proof is usable today, but it is still being actively developed. That means parts of the workflow may change, bugs may appear, and some planned features are still being refined before they become part of the stable app experience.
The current beta is focused on fast local photo culling, folder-based library work, ratings, flags, labels, comparison views, local catalog data, and non-destructive exports. Future releases may change behavior as the product improves.
Free To Download
During beta, Proof can be downloaded for free. You do not need to pay to try it, test it with your own photo folders, or decide whether it fits your workflow.
If you are evaluating Proof for production work, keep normal backups of your photo library and catalog. Beta software should be treated with the same caution as any actively changing tool.
Pay What You Want
The download page may offer a pay-what-you-want option. Contributions are optional and appreciated. They help support continued development, testing, signing, distribution, and the time required to improve the app.
A contribution is not required to unlock the beta, and it is not a purchase of a guaranteed feature set, support plan, or future version. Choose $0 if you want to download the beta for free.
No Refunds
Because Proof is available as a free beta and any payment is a voluntary contribution, contributions are final and non-refundable except where required by law.
Please only contribute if you are comfortable supporting the project as it exists today. If you are unsure, download the beta for free first and contribute later if Proof is useful to you.
Feedback Helps
Bug reports, workflow notes, and clear reproduction steps are useful during beta development. The dedicated feedback form asks for the details that are most helpful, including your Proof and macOS versions, the workflows you tested, and any steps that reproduce an issue.
