Our algorithm is fast.
For single photos, our edit only takes about 0.33 seconds per photo or five and a half minutes for 1,000 photos.
If you choose AI tools, it will take longer. For example, it can take twice as long if you choose Cropping or Straightening. And if you choose HDR Merge, it can take a long time, since we need to upload high-resolution photos.

When the edits are ready, the project status changes to Download to review so you can download your projects to review your edits locally. See Upload and download projects with Lightroom Classic and Upload and download projects with Extended Adobe Compatibility.
