- External-drive backup preparation
- Non-destructive copy into a Photanchor-owned folder
- Quick and full verification
- Sample restore tests
- Up to 5 Macs on one license

Local-first. Licensing never receives iCloud paths, Photos metadata, manifests, checksums, files, or photos.
Non-destructive. Photanchor copies eligible local files into its own backup folder and does not mirror-delete originals.
Honest limits. Photanchor does not replace Time Machine and cannot copy cloud-only files until they are downloaded.
