Pixieset makes beautiful photo galleries. But if your clients ever need video delivery — and they will — you're stuck adding a second tool. FrameCourier gives you stunning photo galleries and professional video review with timestamped comments, revision rounds, and SRT subtitles. No second subscription needed.
Pixieset is a great photo gallery tool. But it was built for photos only — and modern studios deliver more than that.
Pixieset has no timestamped comments, no revision rounds, no SRT subtitle support. If a client needs to review a video, FrameCourier gives you full video review built right into the same platform.
Pixieset doesn't let multiple people on the client side log in independently. FrameCourier supports multi-user clients — art directors, producers, and project managers each get their own account.
Pixieset doesn't embed copyright metadata in your downloads and doesn't offer a licence builder. FrameCourier automatically writes copyright into every JPEG and lets you generate professional licences in seconds.
Studios using Pixieset for photos and Frame.io for video end up paying for two tools. FrameCourier replaces both.
Pixieset Pro ($24/mo, 1TB photos) + Frame.io Team ($125/mo, 5 seats) or even Frame.io Pro ($15/seat). Then add HD video storage on Pixieset.
Pixieset excels at photo galleries. FrameCourier matches every photo feature and adds professional video review — plus tools Pixieset doesn't offer.

You shoot a wedding or commercial campaign. Photos go through Pixieset. But the highlight reel or commercial cut needs review too — now you need a second platform.
Deliver the full wedding gallery AND the highlight film in one branded portal. Clients star their favorite photos and leave timestamped comments on the video — all without leaving FrameCourier.
Shoot a campaign. Deliver edited photos alongside behind-the-scenes video interviews or process reels. Your client's entire team reviews everything in one place.
"I was using Pixieset for photo galleries and Frame.io for video reviews — paying for two platforms, managing two logins, sending two links. FrameCourier unified everything. My clients love having one portal for everything I deliver."
