Holiday parties, offsites, launches and conferences: your attendees take hundreds of photos that never reach you. Show one QR code and everyone uploads to a private gallery from their phone browser. You review every photo before the team sees it, then reveal the gallery when you choose.
Free to try. One-time price per event, no subscription.
Name the event, choose a plan for your headcount, and set the upload window and reveal time.
Put it on the opening slide, registration desk, table cards or lanyards, or in the calendar invite.
They scan, enter their name and upload. No app, no account, no IT ticket.
Remove anything off-brand, then open the gallery and play the slideshow for the team.
Whichever tool you choose, check these points before the event. Here is how Event Capsule handles each one.
| What you need | Why it matters | Event Capsule |
|---|---|---|
| Nothing to install | Work phones often block app installs, and attendees won't download an app for one event. | Attendees scan a QR code or open a link and upload in their phone browser. |
| No attendee accounts | Sign-ups at an event cost you participation. | Attendees enter a name and upload. No account or password. |
| A private gallery | Internal events show colleagues, clients and venues that shouldn't be public. | Only people with your event link can view the gallery. It is not listed or searchable. |
| Review photos before anyone sees them | One unprofessional shot shouldn't end up in front of the whole company. | Preview every upload and hide or remove anything before the reveal. |
| Control when uploads open and close | You want photos from the event, not the weekend after. | Set the upload window and the reveal time when you create the event. |
| Room for the whole team | Caps that are too low stop uploads halfway through the event. | Plans up to 250 attendees, and the Open Roll add-on removes per-guest photo limits. |
| Simple pricing to expense | A one-off event shouldn't need a software subscription. | One-time price per event, no subscription, and a free plan to test first. |
| Easy to reuse the photos | Marketing, HR and internal comms want the best shots afterwards. | Download the full gallery as a ZIP, available for 30 days after the reveal. |
| A shared moment afterwards | Replaying the event is a good way to thank the team. | Play the revealed photos as a full-screen slideshow. |
Event Capsule collects photos only. Attendees can't upload videos, and there is no live photo wall during the event: photos stay sealed until the reveal.
