Memora for Windows
Memora is a privacy-first, local-only desktop app that scans your chosen photo folders, automatically detects and groups faces, and lets you name the people it finds. Once a person is named, Memora instantly surfaces every photo they appear in - without ever modifying your original files unless you explicitly choose to copy, move, or organize them. Every scan, every face match, and every photo stays on your own PC: nothing is uploaded to the cloud or sent to any third-party face-recognition service. Memora also finds duplicate and near-duplicate photos and recommends which copy to keep, lets you group photos into albums, and can label GPS-tagged photos with nearby place names using a fully offline location dataset - so even that never requires an internet connection.

privacy
Your photos stay yours.
Memora processes your photo library and detects faces locally on your Windows PC. Your photos, face data, and thumbnails are never uploaded to a cloud photo service or sent to a third-party face-recognition provider.
The only time Memora contacts a server is a brief license check when you activate Memora Personal — your photos and face data are never part of that request, and Memora keeps working offline afterward using a securely cached license.
