Use cases

One roll, six ways to spend it.

The camera never changes. What changes is how many shots each person gets, how long the film stays sealed, and who ends up holding it. Six nights, set up six different ways — one of them is probably yours.

01 / 06Weddings

The photographer got the ceremony. Your friends got the rest.

A photographer leaves at eleven. The dance floor at one in the morning, the kitchen, the smoking corner, the speech nobody planned — those only exist on your guests’ cameras. Capsule collects them into one roll instead of forty camera rolls you will never see.

02 / 06Birthdays

Twelve shots each. Suddenly everyone is a photographer.

A limit makes people think before they shoot. You get one good photograph of the cake instead of nine identical ones, and the person holding the camera is actually at the party.

03 / 06Trips

Friends round a table on a terrace at dusk, plates cleared, one leaning back laughing under string lights

Seal it on the way out. Develop it on the way home.

Nobody edits a photo on day two. Nobody posts from the car. The whole trip arrives at once when you are back and missing it, which is exactly when you want it.

04 / 06Family

Every relative has a camera. None of them share the photos.

One link in the family group chat and every aunt, cousin and grandparent is shooting into the same film. They do not make an account. They do not learn anything. They tap and it works.

05 / 06Work

The launch party, without anyone livetweeting it.

Sealed until the morning after means nothing goes out while the party is still on. You see the whole night at once, pick the two photographs that are actually good, and post those.

Sealed, all night

06 / 06Everything else

Field, garden, warehouse, sofa.

A leaving do. A supper club. A Sunday that went long. If a group of people were somewhere together and nobody was in charge of photos, there is a film in it.

However it starts

Whichever one is yours, it begins the same way.

Name the film, pick when it seals, hand out one link. Two minutes for you, nothing to install for anyone else, and the first roll is free up to 25 guests.
