    The Archyv main window. A folder of 749 photos is loaded from an external drive, with the four workflow tabs across the top — Scan and Select, File Naming, Metadata Management, File Management. The file list on the left shows photos already renamed to a date-and-subject convention; the Log Summary panel on the right reports what each run changed.
    Duplicate Detection's review window comparing two matched files side by side, with a 100% match confidence score and the reasons for the match broken out — identical size, dimensions and format. Each file has its own "Mark for deletion" button: nothing is removed while you browse, you mark what to delete and commit at the end.
    Editing one photo's metadata across ten field categories, with current and pending values shown separately so you see what will change before it is written. Batch mode applies the same field to a whole selection.
