Tropy

Tropy is a specialized tool for researchers, students, and archivists to manage, tag, and annotate photos of primary sources like books, manuscripts, or artifacts. Import images from cameras, scanners, or folders; add metadata (titles, authors, dates); and organize into projects. Search across collections, export citations, and sync with Zotero. It streamlines workflows by eliminating disorganized image file chaos, letting you focus on analysis instead of sorting sources. Free and open-source, it’s designed to simplify how you track and use visual research materials.
