Image Cropping
as a Microservice

PERFECT RESULTS

EASY INTEGRATION
Details on qCrop
Eliminate “image cropping” as a job stopper from your multichannel/content first/template driven workflows!
Image markup
In about 15 seconds you provide each image with universal clues for cropping – assisted by a live cropping simulation preview. This one-time effort prepares the images for future automatic cropping in a way, that they do not have to be touched again. Markup is executed with proprietary qCrop clients for Windows, MacOS and Linux or a web-based online client.

Microservice
The actual image cropping is executed on demand in real-time by the configurable qCrop algorithm – either as URL-parameterised cloud service or as sandboxed, embedded functionality for system integration purposes.

Integration
The qCrop markup clients as well as the cropping service can easily and seemlessly be integrated into existing workflows, systems, applications and cloud infrastructures (like AWS and Azure). Implement completely novel applications with qCrop!
