Picsui vs Pic-Time
Live guest collection vs gallery delivery
Pic-Time is where a photographer delivers their finished gallery. Picsui is where every guest's phone becomes a camera — live, during the event.

When Pic-Time is the right call
Pic-Time and Picsui do different jobs.
- Delivering edited galleries to clients
Pic-Time's strength is the post-event experience: beautifully presented client galleries.
- Selling prints and products
If print revenue is part of your business, Picsui doesn't sell prints — use a delivery tool with a storefront.
- Studio-controlled brand presentation
Pic-Time gives the photographer full control over the gallery look.

Common questions
Is Picsui a replacement for Pic-Time?
No — they solve different problems. Pic-Time is where a photographer delivers their finished, edited gallery to the client (and sells prints). Picsui is where guests upload their own phone photos and videos in real time during the event. You can use both: Picsui for the live guest experience, Pic-Time for client delivery.
Can photographers use Picsui to share their own photos?
Yes. Photographers can upload their best shots into the same Picsui gallery so guests see a mix of pro shots and guest captures. Picsui does not sell prints — for a print storefront, keep using a delivery tool.
Does Picsui have a live slideshow at the venue?
Yes. Plug any screen, TV, or projector into a browser and Picsui shows guest photos as they're uploaded.
What about live streaming?
Yes. Every Picsui Event Pass includes a private live stream (up to 90 minutes, 100 viewers, with sound). The stream is recorded when recording is available; the replay is a separate add-on, bought after the stream.
Is there a free trial?
There's no trial, but there is a Free Preview: the first 60 uploads are shown, with 5 full-resolution originals and watermarked previews. The gallery locks 7 days after the event and photos are deleted 30 days after upload. When you're ready, the $39 Event Pass is one payment for one event, with no subscription.
