In one line
PanoRyse is an offline Windows app that stitches panoramas, develops photos with real layers and masks, and processes astrophotography from raw frames to a finished image.
In a paragraph
PanoRyse brings panorama stitching, raw photo development and astrophotography into one program. It checks photos before and after the stitch and offers one-click fixes, exchanges projects with PTGui, Hugin, Lightroom Classic and Photoshop, and takes night-sky frames through calibration, full-resolution stacking, plate solving, colour calibration and star separation into layers. A guided planner finds the good nights for the Milky Way, and a 3D Sky Atlas checks shots against the real terrain skyline and flies from the Earth to Sagittarius A* and Andromeda. Its engine is written in Rust and runs on the user's computer; online services are used only on request. The core is free, and three Pro segments cost AUD 30 each as lifetime licences, with no subscription.
