Comparison
Pic-Time leans into presentation: animated slideshows, cinematic gallery layouts, integrated print sales with templated upsells. It's a polished, design-forward platform built for photographers who treat each delivery as a launch. delivered.photos takes the opposite stance — strip the gallery back so the photos are the show, no animated wrappers, no upsell prompts inside the viewer. If your brand is the cinematic envelope around the work, Pic-Time fits. If the work is the brand, delivered.photos is the cleaner frame.

Common questions
Yes — for photographers who deliver galleries without animated stories, integrated print stores, or in-gallery upsells. The viewer is intentionally minimal so the photographs hold every line of sight.
No. Galleries are a masonry layout, full-bleed on mobile, with no animated covers or transitions imposed on the viewing experience. If motion design is part of your brand, Pic-Time will fit better.
delivered.photos doesn't ship AI face recognition, smart culling, or auto-tagging today. If those features materially change your workflow, Pic-Time and CloudSpot are stronger fits.
delivered.photos Starter is free. Pro is €9/mo billed annually (€12 monthly) for unlimited galleries. Studio is €22/mo annually (€29 monthly) with a custom domain. Pic-Time's tiers include the print store and animated features, so the comparison depends on whether you'd use those.
Yes — favorites and comments are core features. Clients tap a heart, leave a comment, and you get their picks ready to pull. No spreadsheet, no separate selection tool.
Starter is free forever — set up a gallery, see how it feels, switch back if it's not for you.
