PhotoPrism: Browse Your Life in Pictures
PhotoPrism™ is a server-based application for browsing, organizing and sharing your personal photo collection. It makes use of the latest technologies to automatically tag and find pictures without getting in your way. Say goodbye to solutions that force you to upload your visual memories to the cloud.
What to expect...
- clearly structured Web interface for browsing, organizing and sharing your personal photo collection
- import everything without worrying about duplicates or RAW to JPEG conversion
- geocoding, XMP support and automated tagging based on Google TensorFlow
Try our demo
You're welcome to play with the demo at demo.photoprism.org. Leave your email to get a release notification.
For the early birds
Step-by-step installation instructions can be found on docs.photoprism.org - all you need is a Web browser and Docker to run the server. It is available for Mac, Linux and Windows.
Next, you'll have to index or import existing files. Please be patient, this will take a while depending on the size of your library.
Already indexed photos can be browsed in Photos while videos show up in Videos. Counts are continuously updated in the navigation.
If photos are missing, they might be in review due to low quality or missing metadata. You can turn this and other features off in Settings, depending on your specific use case.
Contributions
We welcome contributions of any kind. If you have a bug or an idea, read our guide before opening an issue. Issues labeled help wanted / easy can be good (first) contributions.
Follow us on Twitter to receive regular project updates and discuss development related topics. Don't be afraid to ask stupid questions.
Funding
This project is about freedom and privacy but not necessarily about free beer. We feel like it would be a mistake to state there will be no costs, because clearly we have huge expenses, your server hardware will have a price tag and then maybe you'd like to have some extra features that need to be developed.
It's fair to say that users with basic needs will have no monthly costs. We were also way more effective per dollar than commercial projects and learned a lot on top of it. An earlier version of this document contained a rough number, but at the end of the day it doesn't matter.
Most established OSS companies make the bulk of their revenue with enterprise customers, that's why private users and single developers typically get everything for free. Obviously that doesn't work if you have only private users that refuse to share their data on top of it.
Looking forward, specific solutions for funding development and maintenance could be to...
- sell a tested & supported version in the app store while our contributors and other developers can continue to use Docker or build from source
- provide additional features to users who support us financially, maybe with a different license similar to GitLab
- develop a one-click solution for private cloud hosting together with selected providers we trust
- offer a geodata, public events and maps subscription since OpenStreetMap doesn't want us to use their development API for production, which is perfectly fine
Donations
You're welcome to support us via GitHub Sponsors, especially if you have feature requests or need help with using our software. They will match every donation in the first year. In addition, you can find us on Patreon and PayPal. Our sponsors and contributors will get for free whatever we might have to charge for a geodata subscription and/or additional features later (see tiers).
Also, please leave a star on GitHub if you like this project. It provides additional motivation to keep going.
Ideas backed by a sponsor are marked with a golden sponsor label. Let us know if we mistakenly label an idea as unfunded.
Thank you very much! <3
