DNG are capable of embedding processing settings. I believe Halide is using DNG. I'm sure Ben will have more to say

  Yup. We save DNGs, but aside from attaching your geo tag (if you have it enabled), we don't touch the DNG at all. DNGs support XMP, which is an XML based way of describing edits. However, we're doing post processing that can't really be described in XMP. We're launching Instant RAW as an MVP to see how people use it, so to that end we've only focused on "I want amazing details from RAW but I have no idea how to use Lightroom. Just let me share it on Instagram." For now.

    Even someone like me, a VFX professional who does a lot of RAW processing, dealing with RAW is sometimes such a chore. There are plenty of times where I want to use Halide and I want to shoot RAW but I also want to easily share a photo (without going through the laborious processing thing). So I'm really looking forward to that. I'm curious in what way you believe your processing pipeline for "getting to jpg" (RAW -> Instant Raw Processing -> JPEG) is superior to Apple's (capture -> Apple's Processing -> JPEG). Does it just come down to different aesthetic preferences and one-frame-per-image? Or is there something else to it? Also, love the XDR Analysis. So cool.

    I'm a little confused as to the use case here. If I want to post a photo on the internet without knowledge of how to perform color processing, instant RAW is basically an alternative to however Apple would normally process images in their own camera app right?
