Questions, answered
Will it respond to licensing inquiries for me?
No. It only flags new inquiries in the Slack digest. Responding to a buyer or licensing a photo stays a manual step you take yourself.
Why back images up to Drive at all?
So your best-performing work has an off-platform copy in case anything happens to your 500px account or a file gets removed.
What counts as a top-performing image?
Any image whose views or likes clearly outpace the rest of your recent uploads gets flagged and backed up that day.
