Picly is a one-way photo collection tool built for professionals. You create a project, share a link or QR code, and photos come directly to you, organized by session and ready to review. Your clients, attendees, and team members need no account, no app, and no login. Just tap, upload, and done.
Think about how many pictures are shared with you in a given month, or how many WOULD be shared once you’re using Picly as your sharing tool.
Your Picly account is not a permanent storage space for photos that keeps on growing. It is a pass-through account that constantly receives shared photos, while at the same time you are deleting old projects once you have downloaded the project pictures or transferred them to your Google Drive.
A typical iPhone photo is around 6 MB. Picly also stores a small preview thumbnail, so plan for roughly 6 MB per photo stored in your account (thumbnails add only a small fraction on top).
If you will have more projects, more sessions, or more photos, that’s when the Pro plan’s 30 GB gives you comfortable breathing room without having to watch the clock. Higher-volume operations that keep sessions around longer will naturally fit better on a larger plan.
But your plan will never be cut off for uploading. If your average daily content size goes over your plan amount, we will simply charge you a nominal fee for the overage. If it is a sign that your needs are increasing, simply upgrade your plan. If not, then keep your plan and only pay the small overage charge for super-busy months.
We never block incoming photos, not even if you’re over your storage limit. Here’s exactly how billing works.
Each plan includes a storage allowance that covers originals and thumbnails of every photo stored in Picly. ZIP files are temporary and do not count toward your limit.
If your stored total goes over your plan’s allowance during the month, the excess gigabytes are billed at your plan’s overage rate on your next invoice. That’s it.

Once you’ve downloaded or transferred a session’s photos to Google Drive, you no longer need those files sitting in Picly. Deleting old sessions and projects frees up that storage immediately. Many users archive completed work regularly to stay comfortably within their plan, keeping their monthly cost predictable and avoiding overages entirely.
