About RawTherapee
RawTherapee combines a file browser with a deep RAW processing workspace. Queue several photographs for export after adjusting their exposure, color, and detail.
Processing profiles make repeated edits easier to reuse across a shoot. The project publishes macOS builds alongside its source code.
