The Frame.io Alternative
Built for Photo + Video Teams
Frame.io is great for video review, but it's built video-first and you pay per seat. FrameCourier is built for both from day one — video review and photo delivery — with unlimited users on every plan.
Three reasons studios switch
Frame.io dominates video review — but if you also deliver photos, you're stuck paying for a second platform.
Per-seat pricing adds up fast
Frame.io Team costs $25 per person per month. A 5-person studio pays $125/mo. A 10-person studio pays $250/mo. FrameCourier includes unlimited team members on every plan — $49/mo for your whole team.
Video-first, not built for photo delivery
Frame.io is built around video review. If your clients also need photo galleries with RAW support, watermarking, ZIP downloads and per-photo proofing, FrameCourier handles both photos and video in one place.
No branded client portal
Frame.io clients log into Frame.io's brand, not yours. FrameCourier gives every studio a fully branded client portal on their own subdomain — your logo, your colors, your name.
Save thousands per year
Frame.io charges per seat. FrameCourier charges by storage. For most studios, that means massive savings.
5-person studio: Frame.io vs FrameCourier
Frame.io Team ($25/seat) means 5 users cost $125/mo. And you still need a separate photo delivery tool.
Frame.io vs FrameCourier
Frame.io is video-first. FrameCourier is built for video review AND photo delivery from day one, with no seat fees.

When you need both photos and video
Many studios deliver a mix of photos and video to the same client. Frame.io is built around video. FrameCourier handles both.
Commercial photography + BTS video
Shoot a commercial campaign. Deliver final edited photos and behind-the-scenes video clips for review — all in one place, under your brand, with one subscription.
Video production + stills
Produce a corporate video. Deliver the rough cut for timestamped client feedback alongside production stills and promotional images. One platform, no tool switching.
Brand content studio
Run a studio that shoots both product photography and brand videos. Your clients log into one branded portal to see everything — no more "check Frame.io for the video, Pixieset for the photos."
Replace Frame.io and your photo platform — for less.
