How it works
Three steps. One shared moment.
02
Snap in the moment
Guests join with a nickname and shoot from their phone. Photos stay locked until reveal.
03
Reveal together
When the countdown hits zero, every angle drops at once. The whole room reacts together.
Why Gather
The anti-social feed for real life.
Group chats get messy. Shared albums feel corporate. Gather is built for the energy of a single night — intimate, ephemeral, and designed to be experienced together.
Zero friction
Guests join with a nickname — no email or password. Hosts manage everything from a dashboard.
Truly private
Photos never leak before reveal — enforced on the server, not the UI.
Built for groups
Weddings, dinners, house parties — everyone contributes, everyone sees.
Timed reveal
Set the unlock moment. Build anticipation all night long.
Pricing
Free to start. Scale by guest count.
One-time per-event pricing — no subscriptions. Pay only for the guest capacity you need. Every tier includes the full Gather experience.

Pricing FAQ
Who pays — host or guests?
The host selects a tier when creating the event. Guests never pay, sign up, or download anything.
What counts as one guest?
Each unique nickname that joins your event link. One person rejoining with a new nickname uses an additional slot.
Are photo uploads limited?
No. Within your guest cap, every guest can upload as many photos as they want during the event window.
How long does an event stay active?
From creation until your reveal time. After reveal, the gallery stays viewable; new uploads are closed.
Can I upgrade mid-event?
Yes. Purchase a guest add-on pack (+10, +25, or +50) from your admin panel without losing existing photos.
Is everything free during beta?
Yes. All tiers are free while we launch. Paid checkout arrives at go-live — create unlimited events now.
