Here is how it compares to common alternatives: ### vs. WhatsApp / Telegram Groups - Group chats compress photos and videos heavily, losing original quality. - Media gets buried in conversation threads and is hard to organize or download later. - No moderation tools — anyone in the group can post anything. - Forevio preserves full resolution, organizes media in a curated gallery, and gives the host full moderation control. ### vs. Google Photos Shared Albums - Requires every guest to have a Google account and sign in. - No QR code scanning — guests need to be manually added or sent a link. - No built-in moderation, privacy gating, or approval workflows. - Forevio requires zero accounts from guests. Scan, upload, done. ### vs. Pixieset - Pixieset is designed for professional photographers to deliver client galleries, not for guest-sourced event uploads. - Free tier is limited to 3 GB and includes a 15% commission on print sales. Paid plans start at ~$10/month (billed annually). - Does not offer QR code-based guest uploads or live slideshow features out of the box. - Forevio is built specifically for collaborative guest uploads at events, with a free private beta plan and no commissions. ### vs. WedUploader - WedUploader stores photos in your personal Google Drive rather than a dedicated gallery platform. - Pricing starts around $39–$40 as a one-time fee. - No built-in content moderation, video transcoding, or gallery presentation layer. - Forevio provides a complete gallery experience with moderation, video playback, community features, and a premium UI — for free during beta. ### vs. GuestPix - GuestPix pricing starts around $50–$60 and can exceed $120 for multi-event packages. - Limited moderation tools compared to Forevio's host approval gating. - Forevio offers comparable features at no cost during private beta, with a lower post-beta price ($39 one-time). ### vs. Guestlense - Guestlense pricing starts at $49, with premium plans around $99 that include printed QR cards. - Offers AI moderation but charges significantly more for equivalent features. - Forevio provides content moderation, guest approval gating, video transcoding, and community features — currently free for beta users. ## Frequently Asked Questions ### What is the Forevio Private Beta? We are currently in a limited invitation phase to ensure the best experience for every couple. During this period, select users get full access to our premium collaborative album features for free. ### Do guests need to download an app to share photos? No. Guests simply scan your event's custom QR code with their phone camera and upload directly from their browser. It's designed to be completely frictionless for everyone. ### Will my digital album compress my photos? Unlike WhatsApp or Instagram, Forevio preserves your memories in original, high-resolution quality. We don't strip metadata or compress files, so your photos stay perfectly crisp for printing. ### How long will my event gallery stay active? For our Private Beta 'Couples' plan, galleries stay active for 12 months from the event date. You can download your entire high-resolution collection at any time during this period. ### Can I moderate the photos before they appear in the gallery? Yes! You have full control. You can enable 'Host Approval' to review and approve every photo or video before it becomes visible to other guests in the live gallery. ### Is my private gallery secure? Absolutely. Your gallery is private by default. Only people with your unique QR code or direct link can access the album. We do not index your private galleries on search engines. ## Comparison Table | Feature | Forevio (Beta) | Pixieset | WedUploader | GuestPix | Guestlense | |---|---|---|---|---|---| | **Purpose** | Guest event uploads | Photographer delivery | Guest uploads to Drive | Guest event uploads | Guest event uploads | | **Guest App Required** | No | No | No | No | No | | **Guest Account Required** | No | No | No | No | No | | **QR Code Upload** | ✅ | ❌ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | | **Original Quality Storage** | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ (via Google Drive) | ✅ | ✅ | | **Video Support** | ✅ (transcoded playback) | ✅ (limited by tier) | Basic | ✅ | ✅ | | **Content Moderation** | ✅ | ❌ | ❌ | Limited | ✅ (AI) | | **Guest Approval Gating** | ✅ | ❌ | ❌ | ❌ | ❌ | | **No Watermarks** | ✅ | ✅ (paid plans) | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | | **No Ads** | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | | **Forever Storage** | ✅ | ❌ | ✅ (client Drive) | ❌ | ❌ | | **Community Features** | ✅ | ❌ | ❌ | ❌ | ❌ | | **Starting Price** | Free (beta) / $39 | Free (3 GB) / ~$10/mo | ~$39 one-time | ~$50 one-time | ~$49 one-time | ## How to Join Forevio is invite-only during private beta.
