Everything it does, in plain terms.

No. Plenty of work is already paid for before anyone sees a gallery — a contract, an invoice, a deposit, cash on the day. Set the shoot to prepaid and the client just gets their files: no watermark, no checkout, no prompt to buy something they already own.

You can still record what the job was worth. Put the figure on the shoot and it joins your revenue reporting alongside gallery sales — one trendline, whether the money arrived through Deliver or through your bank.

Straight into your own account. You connect your Stripe or your Square — your choice of processor, per studio — and client payments route directly to it. We are not a party to the transaction, so there is no cut, no payout schedule, and nothing of yours sitting in our balance.

Yes, and this is the one most studios are leaving on the table. A public gallery is a link anyone can open — no invitation, no account. Set it to watermarked and every visitor can browse; they sign in only at the moment they pay.

Price per photo, or attach a package — "all 40 frames from the meet, $60" — to anyone with the link.

Turn on Buy together and the shoot becomes collaborative. Every purchase unlocks that photo for everyone invited, so each person buys the frames they actually want and the group ends up with all of them. Nobody can be charged for something someone else already bought.

Buyers see a small Group badge — they know it came from the group, never who paid for it. That anonymity is what makes it usable between two families, or four departments with different budgets.

No — and this is usually where galleries lose money. Your link gets forwarded to parents, to the wedding party, to the friend getting married next spring. A public gallery lets all of them browse instantly. Sign-in happens at checkout, not at the door.

In the same gallery, yes. Price frames individually or set one price across the lot, mark anything $0 so it downloads free, and mark anything not for sale so it can be seen but never bought. Useful for a portfolio piece you'll show but won't licence.

Photo and video, both watermarked automatically on upload, with your logo scaled to the frame. Clients browse the watermarked cut and pay to unlock the clean file, the same way they do with stills.

Price them together or separately — a package can cover photos, video, or both.

iPhone HEIC files convert to JPEG on the way in, so nobody has to explain to a client why the photos won't open. Uploads are checked by actual file type rather than trusting the extension.

Folders inside the gallery — by team, by class, by heat, by hour — plus an all-folders view when someone wants to see everything at once. A buyer can go straight to the eight frames that concern them instead of scrolling past the other 1,992.

You invite them by email and they set their own password — you never issue or reset one. They see only the media assigned to them, on your branded subdomain, with your name on it.

One shoot can carry many customers, each buying different frames, each seeing only what they bought.

Three shapes. A bundle — a fixed set for one price. À la carte — they pick frames and pay per photo. Or prepaid, where the money happened elsewhere and the gallery is pure delivery.

Packages can be scoped to photos, video or both, with an optional cap on how many items are included, and assigned per shoot rather than per account.

It's your logo, applied automatically on upload, scaled in proportion to the frame so it sits correctly on a wide crop and a tall one alike — on video as well as stills.

Watermarked previews are what buyers browse. The clean original is what unlocks on purchase, and the watermarked copy cleans itself up once everyone assigned has bought.

As many as you like, and they aren't gated by plan — a free workspace can run them too. Each one is independently configured: open or watermarked, indexed or hidden, password or private link.

That's four working combinations, so a portfolio, a paid event storefront and a private family gallery can all be live at once under the same brand.

Yours. Logo, banner, colours, fonts and watermark are all yours, on a branded subdomain, on every plan including the free one. On Professional and above you can put the gallery on your own domain, so the address bar says your studio too.

Yes — a person is a seat, not a surcharge. Professional is five seats, Studio is fifteen, Enterprise is unlimited. Team members sign in with Google, so there is no password for you to issue or reset.

Adding someone doesn't change what you pay per job and doesn't take a percentage of what their galleries sell. Built for one photographer, or ten.

Every client carries a timeline — viewed, downloaded, purchased — and a status that keeps itself current: Never logged in, Active, or Buyer. So "did they see it?" and "who is worth following up?" are things you look at rather than guess at.

You decide — per shoot, or set a default for the whole workspace, or never expire at all. A week before anything closes, both you and your client get a warning, so nobody discovers a dead link on their own.

When a shoot with sales does expire, you get a PDF: what sold, who bought which frame, what the job made, with a thumbnail grid. The gallery goes away and the record doesn't.

Files are served through short-lived signed links rather than public URLs, each studio's data is isolated at the database level, and you can turn on two-factor with recovery codes. Restricted galleries are never search-indexed.

Clients can also request deletion of their own data, and you'll see the request in a queue — your order and payment records survive it.

Unlimited, on every plan, including the free one. Your client list is not something we meter and it is never the reason you have to move up a tier. Plans differ on storage and seats — never on how many people you serve.

On a paid plan it keeps working and you pay for the extra: $0.06 per GB per month of storage, $0.25 per GB of delivery, collected as one balance and billed when it reaches $5. Published up front rather than discovered on an invoice.

Storage is what you hold. Delivery is what leaves — every time someone opens a gallery or downloads a file. Popular work costs more to deliver than quiet work.

No. It's $0 a month with no card, no countdown, and no point later where it asks for one. One active shoot, up to 250 photos, 3 GB of storage and 5 GB of delivery — enough to run one real job from upload to download.

The limits, plainly: photos only — video is on every paid plan — and free galleries carry a small Powered by Tobren badge. That's the whole of it.

Fourteen days of whichever plan you pick, at that plan's real limits — a preview of the thing itself, not a stripped version. Nothing is capped mid-trial and trial overage is never charged.

At day fourteen nothing is charged, because there's no card on file to charge. Pick a plan when you're ready. If you do nothing, we email you and hold the account for a week before it goes read-only: your files stay exactly where they are, and adding a card brings everything back.

You do. We store and deliver them on your behalf. We don't licence them, don't use them to promote anything, and aren't a party to what you sell.

They can ask directly and the request lands in a queue for you to action, rather than becoming an email you have to remember. Media goes; the order and payment record survives, because you need it for your accounts and so does your accountant.

No. Nothing is ever deleted to force you under a limit. An account that lapses goes read-only — the work is still there, existing buyers can still collect what they paid for, and settling up puts you straight back.

Not yet. If your workflow depends on a client ticking their picks and sending the list back, we're not there — buyers choose by purchasing rather than by shortlisting first.

Neither is built. There's no automatic "find every photo of this person," and we don't print — we deliver files and take the payment for them, and the lab relationship stays yours.

Switched off while we complete Google's security review, rather than shipped half-done. Uploading directly works normally in the meantime.

We'd rather you read this here than find out after moving a season of work across.
