COLLECT

Getting photos in is the easy part

Send one link (or a QR code) and let people add their photos, no account required.

Link and QR code entry

Share a single link or a scannable QR code and contributors are straight into the upload screen.

No account needed to contribute

Contributors add a first name and start uploading, no password, no app, no sign-up.

Anonymous contribution option

If the collector allows it, photos can be added without even a name attached.

No arbitrary file-size limits

Upload full-resolution photos straight from a phone or camera. The only ceiling is your own storage, not a limit we impose.

Contributor captions

Contributors can add a short caption to their photos as they upload, so the story stays attached to the image.

Per-person limits

Collectors can cap how many photos each contributor sends, keeping things manageable for larger events.

CURATE

Sort through everything in one place

A workspace built for reviewing, selecting and ordering thousands of photos without losing your place.

Review workspace

See every submission in one place and work through them at your own pace.

Bulk selection tools

Select, approve or set aside groups of photos at once instead of clicking through one by one.

Drag-and-drop ordering

Arrange the final set into the order you want with a simple drag and drop.

Co-curators

Invite others by email to help sort photos alongside you; their actions are logged, and they can't change settings or delete anything.

Automatic duplicate detection

Collecurate flags likely duplicates so you're not sorting the same photo twice.

Quality warnings

Blurry or low-resolution photos are flagged before they make it into your final set.

Sort by date photo was taken

Order the review workspace by when each photo was actually taken, not when it was uploaded.

COMMEMORATE

Turn the collection into something to share

Bring the finished set to life as a slideshow, a downloadable offline show, or a filed-away album. It's the format families lean on for memorial slideshows and couples use for their wedding photo collection.

Slideshow with transitions

Play the finished set full-screen with smooth transitions and captions.

Fit-to-time mode

Set a total run time and the slideshow paces itself to fit, built for a eulogy or speech slot.

Offline export with your own music

Download a self-contained slideshow that runs from a laptop or USB stick with no internet and no account needed, add your own music before it's played.

Guestbook notes page

Each contributor can leave one note alongside their photos, collected into a guestbook page you keep.

Final album filed into your own Drive

File the finished, ordered set into a final album in your own Google Drive, Dropbox or OneDrive.

STORAGE & PRIVACY

It's your storage, your data, your call

Collecurate works inside cloud storage you already own, and only ever sees what you choose to share with it.

Bring your own storage

Connect Google Drive, Dropbox or Microsoft OneDrive, or Amazon S3, and your photos live there from the start.

Scoped folder access only

Collecurate can only see the one folder you choose, nothing else in your account.

Contributor privacy

Contributors can only see and manage what they personally uploaded, never anyone else's photos.

Full data export

Captions, notes, contributor credits and ordering export as a data file that stays available even after you stop paying.

Nothing deleted by default

Collections are closed, not archived or deleted, so your work is still there when you need it again.

Start your first collection free

One link or a QR code is all it takes to start gathering everyone's photos.
