SoftColor AUTOMATA

SoftColor AUTOMATA is a tool for color correction, image editing and color management workflow automation. Automata loads new and changed files from input folder and process and save them automatically to output folder. You can create multiple workflows with different input / output folder combinations. Automata uses non-destructive layer based processing for color and image adjustments. Automata’s automatic color correction algorithm corrects white balance, exposure  and contrast problems from original image in single step. Automata reads multiple digital image and camera RAW formats. Automata saves edited image to JPEG, TIFF, PNG, BMP and PSD formats. If PSD format is used Automata saves original and edited images into same file as separate layers. Automata has full support for standard ICC-profile  based color management and it supports embedded profiles. Automata manages embedded 
Automatic. Automata process images automatically on the background. It loads new and hanged files from input folder after that it process and saves to output folder. You can create multiple workflows with different input / output folder combinations. You can also chain Automata’s workflows to work together.
Color correction. Automata’s automatic color correction algorithm corrects color balance, exposure and contrast problems from original image in single step. White balance, exposure and contrast adjustments are processed as separate layers. This gives full control to fine tune automatic correction intensity and other color correction adjustments.
Image editing. Automata has tools and filters for resizing, cropping, rotating, straightening, sharping and denoising the original image. Image editing in Automata is non destructive and layer based operation. Image editing tools and filters can be used together with color correction or separately.
Color management.  Automata has support for standard ICC profile based color management and loading and saving embedded ICC profiles. Automata can convert and render between different color spaces, for example conversion from RGB to CMYK. Automata’s has support for v4 and v2 profiles.
Multiple formats.  Automata can operate with multiple digital image and camera RAW formats. Automata handles conversions between image formats and color spaces. Embedded metadata is transferred between input and output images if output image format has support for embeded metadata.
