Real-Time Collaboration
Work together with your team on photo projects
How It Works
Perfect For
Remote production teams
Photographer is on set in London, publicist is in New York, producer is in LA. They're all working the same project without a single email thread to keep in sync.
Approval feedback loops
A talent rep leaves a comment on three specific shots asking for cropped versions. The photographer sees it immediately, uploads revised versions, and the rep gets notified when they're ready.
PR agency coordination
Multiple account managers working across different client projects. Each team has their own space, notifications are scoped to what's relevant, and nothing bleeds across client boundaries.
You're on set. The photographer is uploading stills. The publicist in LA needs to flag three photos for the talent's rep. The producer in New York wants a status update. Everyone's working from the same project, and nobody needs to send an email to make it happen.
Comments
Threaded conversations
Start a conversation on any asset. Comments support threading, so a discussion about whether a particular shot works for the EPK stays attached to that photo rather than lost in a group chat.
@Mentions
Tag a teammate with @ and they get notified immediately. The comment is highlighted in their view so they can jump straight to it. Useful when you need a specific person's input on a specific photo.
Resolution tracking
When a comment raises an issue and someone handles it, mark the comment as resolved. You can filter to show only open items, which keeps review sessions focused on what still needs attention.
Filtering
Find the comments you care about:
- By author
- By date range
- By resolution status
- By asset or collection
Activity feed
The activity feed is your project's timeline. Every action shows up here, organized chronologically.
Asset activity
- New uploads
- Metadata changes
- Tag assignments
- Collection additions
Team activity
- Members added or removed
- Permission changes
- Role updates
Workflow activity
- Approval status changes
- Finalization events
- Distribution link creation
Audit integration
The activity feed ties into full audit logging. If you need to prove who did what and when for compliance or production insurance, it's all there.
Notifications

Team management

- Viewer: Read-only. For clients and stakeholders.
- Contributor: Upload, edit, and organize. For photographers and editors.

Use cases
Creative review
Leave comments on specific photos with feedback. Tag the photographer or editor to loop them in. Track which notes have been addressed and which are still open.
Project coordination
The activity feed tells you who uploaded what, when approvals changed status, and whether the collection you're waiting on has been updated. No need to ask for status updates.
Remote teams
When your team is spread across locations and time zones, the notification system and activity feed keep everyone aware of progress without scheduling another sync call.
Who this is for
Production teams coordinating between set and office. PR agencies managing photo reviews with multiple stakeholders. Any team where more than one person touches the photos and everyone needs to stay aligned.
