Step 1
Capture
Canon tethered capture, GoPro, or an Android phone camera. Photo, strip, GIF, boomerang, video and 360.
Features
From the shutter to the guest's phone
A single workflow that keeps working when the venue Wi-Fi does not.
The workflow
Step 2
Local AI matting
Chroma key or an offline segmentation model cuts the guest out on the device. No per-image cloud cost, no upload needed.
Step 3
Instant print
One print pipeline for the booth, remote requests and retries, with tiling, cut marks and a roll counter.
Step 4
QR delivery or cloud sync
Guests scan a QR code and get their media over the venue network, even with no internet. The cloud copy syncs when a connection exists.
Where it differs
How it compares
Offline-first operation, free local background removal, strip-cut support and privacy by design, side by side with the typical market offer.
