One controlled route from central event data to a finished XMP file.
One workflow, not patchwork
Less copy and paste, fewer inconsistent credits, fewer questions when the clock is running.
Dates, places and sports live in one shared source the team can follow.
Copyright, credit, contact and publisher requirements come from maintained profiles.
The final structure stays visible before export and can be corrected in a controlled way.
Download XMP directly or send a prepared delivery to the photographer.
Built for the fast desk
XMPDesk keeps operational work in one place — from the next assignment to the last delivery.
A monthly view, multi-day events and central event data give the team one shared picture.
Photographer and publisher profiles fill recurring IPTC fields consistently.
Deliveries can go to each assigned photographer or to one central recipient.
Downloads and email deliveries remain visible as an operational history.
Clear boundaries
Each workspace contains its own members, events and exports. Roles and server-side access controls keep responsibilities clear; customer data is never served as public site content.
