Share the link. Each athlete searches by bib number — or by selfie — and downloads their photos.

Frequently asked questions

Can't find what you're looking for? Write to us.

Why does the event need approval?
Approval ensures the event meets the platform's usage requirements, preventing improper or unlawful use.
How does payment work?
After you submit your application, we review it within 1–2 business days and send you a payment link. As soon as payment is confirmed, your account and event are activated automatically.
How long does photo indexing take?
It depends on volume, but typically 2 to 5 photos are processed per second. You can track progress in real time on the dashboard. You can publish the event immediately, even while indexing is still in progress.
Do athletes need to create an account or install an app?
No. Your event's public link opens directly in the browser. Any athlete can access it without any signup.
I have several photographers working the event. Can they upload photos directly to the platform?
Yes. Each event has an access code that can be shared with the team. Each photographer logs in with the code, and sees and manages only the photos they uploaded. The organizer has access to everything and can generate a new code or remove members at any time.
How can an athlete find their photos?
An athlete can search their photos by bib number or by face recognition. Face recognition is optional and can be disabled.
Are the original photos safe?
Yes. Original files are stored in a private bucket with no public access. Athletes download them via short-lived pre-signed URLs. Previews and thumbnails live in a separate public bucket.
Can I sell photos on this platform?
Yes, it's an option per event. Previews are processed with a watermark and athletes can buy the original version. Payment is made on our platform and the money goes directly to the organizer, with no involvement from us.
How long do photos stay available?
Photos stay available for a maximum period of 6 months. After that period, they are automatically removed to protect athlete privacy and manage storage efficiently.
