Reminis

Founded in 2017, Reminis Inc. is a digital photography sales and distribution platform built to serve professional photographers and photography companies. The San Francisco-based company has developed a proprietary artificial intelligence that fundamentally alters the professional photography workflow. This technology addresses a major inefficiency in the market by drastically reducing the time it takes to get finished photos to clients.

The company's core offering is a platform that uses AI-powered facial recognition to instantly search for individuals within vast photo libraries. This allows photographers to bypass the traditional, manual sorting process. Reminis has engineered a workflow that cuts a typical five-day delivery schedule down to just 30 minutes, enabling near-instantaneous retouching and delivery of images after they are taken. The business model operates by providing this technology suite to photographers, who upload millions of images to the platform. This continuous influx of data serves to further train and improve the company's AI for facial recognition and image enhancement. Revenue is generated as end-users, the subjects of the photos, purchase their pictures through the platform, creating an interface between the photographer and the buyer.

The platform's value proposition is twofold: it provides a powerful sales and distribution channel for photographers and delivers a vastly improved experience for consumers who can access their high-quality, professionally shot photos almost immediately. By automating a labor-intensive part of the process, Reminis allows photographers to focus on their craft. To date, the company has raised approximately $88.8K in funding through various accelerator programs and angel investments, including a Seed round from StartersHub in October 2018.
