Local Photo Stack Enhancer

Aligns and stacks multiple phone shots into one cleaner photo

Problem

Photography enthusiasts want to stack images for better quality, but existing tools either stack without alignment or mix in bad frames, leaving noise and ghosting. After a burst of shots, manually culling, aligning, and comparing frames is tedious, and casual users rarely get a naturally clean final image.

Solution

A desktop photo-stacking tool that auto-aligns multiple shots of the same scene, scores each frame for quality, drops blurry or misaligned ones, stacks the kept frames to reduce noise, and offers before/after comparison and one-click export, all processed locally.

Users

Phone photography hobbyists, amateur night and still-life shooters, and small sellers needing clean product photos

MVP

Drag in multiple same-scene photos; auto-align; score and drop bad frames by sharpness and match; stack to reduce noise; before/after comparison and export

Revenue

One-time $25; free version limited to 5 images per stack; optional mobile companion with in-app purchases

Why now

High-megapixel phone bursts give casual users plenty of stackable material, yet desktop stacking tools are pro-oriented and lack auto culling and alignment. A solo developer can ship a smooth local tool using off-the-shelf vision libraries in two to three weeks.
