One camera. Everyone invited. 12 photos each. Cliché turns your night into a disposable camera. Your guests scan a QR code, everyone shoots, and nobody sees a thing until it's over. Then the roll develops and you all get photos of the same night. WHY IT BEATS THE GROUP CHAT ALBUM - 12 photos each, not one more. Every shot counts, so people put their phones away and actually show up. - Nothing to see until the end. Nobody's comparing photos at the table, nobody's begging you to take it again. - Bluetooth picks up who you were with. You get your moments, even the photos you didn't take. HOW IT WORKS - Create the roll and hold up its QR code. Your guests are in within seconds. - Everyone shoots their 12 photos during the night. The roll stays closed while it develops. - You open it when the party's over, up to a week later. Forget to, and it opens on its own. - You get the whole roll, everyone else gets their moments. MADE FOR - Weddings, birthdays, festivals, bachelor and bachelorette parties - At work: conferences, trade shows, offsites, company parties and happy hours - Weekends away with friends, housewarmings, family reunions - Or just a Saturday night, for no reason YOUR PHOTOS STAY BETWEEN YOU - No feed, no followers, no ads - Only the people who were there see the photos - You pick how many photos everyone gets, 12 by default No photographer. No 2,000-photo album where you don't recognize anyone. Just your night, developed for the people who lived it.
