What makes Galerist different.
We're not going to line ourselves up against the giants — they've earned their place. This is simply how a typical gallery tool tends to work, next to how we think delivery should feel.
| A typical gallery tool | Galerist | |
|---|---|---|
| Original-resolution delivery | Often re-compressed on export | Your JPEGs, byte for byte |
| Finding one person's photos | Scroll manually, page by page | AI face search from a single selfie |
| Client feedback & proofing | Email threads & screenshots | Draw & comment directly on the photo |
| Branding & domain | Their brand sits on your work | Fully your brand + subdomain |
| Video delivery | A separate tool, or none | Photo + HLS video in one gallery |
| Privacy | Often public-by-default | noindex + optional password |
| How you pay | Monthly subscription, always | €9.99 once, or subscribe when busy |
“A typical gallery tool” describes the common feature set across delivery platforms. No specific product is named or implied.
Name by name.
Every claim on these pages is sourced to the competitor's own pricing page, with the date we checked it — and each one says plainly what that tool does better than us.
The €9.99 gallery is the whole point.
Most tools make you subscribe before you can deliver a single set of photos. Galerist doesn't. Pay once for one gallery, or move to a plan only when the volume makes it worth it. Either way, the platform is the same — full resolution, face search, proofing, your brand.
Galerist isn't a one-gallery gimmick — it's a full delivery platform. The €9.99 option just means no subscription is ever forced on you.
