The professional photographer gets 200 shots. Your guests collectively take 2,000. With Kizu, every person at your wedding, reunion, or birthday can contribute their photos to one shared album — no app downloads required for guests, just a QR code.
Print a QR code at your event. Guests scan it, upload their photos, and everything lands in your private album. No accounts needed, no friction.
Guests tap reactions on their favorite photos and leave Memories — short notes pinned to specific shots. The album becomes a shared scrapbook: "look at his face when she said yes" right next to the photo it's about, from the aunt who was three tables over.
Some photos aren't just photos. The recipe card in grandma's handwriting. The video of dad grilling his secret marinade. The birthday note your daughter wrote at age five. Kizu preserves the context around those moments so the story travels with them.
Find any photo by what's in it — "birthday cake," "grandma's garden," "Thanksgiving 2024." Our AI recognizes faces, places, and objects without ever sending your photos off your device.
Kizu resurfaces moments from past years so your family can relive and reshare them. The recipe that started a tradition. The first day of school, every year side by side.
Every family is different. Kizu gives you Circles — private groups where only the people you invite can see what's shared. A Circle for grandparents, one for your siblings, another for your college friends. Each one completely separate, completely private.
Birthday party? Sunday dinner? Create a shared album and let everyone add their best shots. Every perspective, every angle, one place.
Share photos directly in conversation. React to them, reply with your own. Photos shared in chat are automatically saved to your shared albums — nothing gets lost in the scroll.
You've spent years uploading photos to platforms that profit from them. Kizu lets you pull everything into one private space — albums, dates, and metadata intact. One import, and you're free.
Move your entire library with a few taps. Stop paying Google to store photos they scan for AI training. Rescue years of Facebook memories from a platform you may not trust anymore.
Every photo you take on your iPhone or Android is instantly backed up and available across all your family's devices. Never lose a moment to a broken phone again.
Most "cloud storage" means your photos live on a corporation's computers under their terms. Kizu flips that. Start free in the cloud, then add your own private server at home for complete control. Your rules, your data, forever.
Plug in a Kizu server, and your photos sync to hardware you physically own. No subscription, no terms of service that change overnight, no access revoked. It's a hard drive in your house.
Your photos are never locked in. Export your entire library at any time in standard formats. If you leave Kizu, every photo, every album, every memory comes with you.
Google scans your photos to train AI models and target ads. Kizu never will. Your photos stay on infrastructure you control — not in a data pipeline that profits from your family's faces.
Your data is stored in open formats you can export anytime. With the optional private server, your photos live on your own hardware — they survive no matter what happens to us.
The apps are free on iOS, Android, and web. We make money from optional hardware like picture frames and private servers — not from your data. If you never buy hardware, you never pay a cent.
Yes. Share individual photos or entire albums via a private link. Recipients can view without creating an account. When they're ready to join your Circle, it's one tap.
Google, Facebook, and Apple treat your memories as training data. Kizu treats them as what they are — yours.
Free on iOS, Android, and web. No credit card required.
