FAQ
How does Image MetaHub handle user privacy and data collection during local operation?
Image MetaHub is designed for complete privacy by operating as a local browser. It does not require user accounts, cloud connectivity, or the transmission of telemetry data to external servers. This ensures that all image data and metadata remain strictly on the user's local hardware without any external tracking or data harvesting (verified: 2026-01-29).
Which specific AI generation tools and image formats are compatible with the metadata parser?
The tool parses metadata from Stable Diffusion, A1111, ComfyUI, and InvokeAI. It also supports metadata extraction from WebP files and other related AI generation tool outputs. This allows users to maintain a consistent organizational structure across various generation platforms and file types while keeping all data stored locally (verified: 2026-01-29).
What is the difference between the standard version and the optional Pro features?
The standard version is open-source and free for local image browsing and organization. Optional Pro features are available via Gumroad for power users seeking additional functionality beyond the core open-source offering. Users can choose to support the project through these paid features or via donations on platforms like Ko-fi (verified: 2026-01-29).
