The Story Behind the App
Getting more likes on Instagram is not the point of taking pictures — and it's not an efficient way to get feedback.

Contact Sheet was built by an amateur photographer who kept asking the same question: how do I actually get better? Without a mentor or a darkroom group to critique your prints, honest feedback is hard to come by. So I built an AI director who does exactly that — pointing out strengths, flagging weaknesses, and scoring your work across real photographic dimensions.

Everything a photographer
needs to improve

Organised around the natural workflow of a film photographer — from roll to review.

🎞

Film Roll Organisation

Group your photos into curated Film Rolls — color-coded series for street, landscape, personal projects, and more. Keep your creative work structured.

🤖

AI Photo Critique

Send any photo for a scored AI analysis across Composition, Technique, and Content. Receive typewriter-animated feedback that reads like a real critique.

🖊

Annotated Photos

⚖️

Self-Evaluation Scoring

☁️

Photographer Wisdom

Daily inspiration from the masters — Henri Cartier-Bresson, Ansel Adams, Vivian Maier. Curated quotes to keep your eye sharp and your mind curious.

Your photo.
Annotated.

The AI marks up your actual image with handwritten-style notes — so you can see exactly what the critique is talking about.

Karate photo AI critique
AI Score: 4 / 5

Great Moment, Competing Subjects

The decisive moment is captured — but clutter in the background and multiple competing subjects dilute the impact. Try cropping.

Street photography AI critique
AI Score: 4 / 5

Compelling Juxtaposition

Grit and texture work well. Composition sits too dead-center — try the Rule of Thirds. Unbalanced weight shifts left.

Water fountain AI critique
AI Score: 3 / 5

Reflection Is the Story

The reflection creates a strong mirror effect — but underexposure hides the detail and water timing could be sharper.
