What does it do?

BYLINED is the first unstock and on-demand photo platform that allows brands to engage their fans and customers for unique, authentic product-oriented photos.

BYLINED bridges the gap between brands and their fans for user-generated photos.

Why do we need it?

Every day, over 2 billion photos are shared on platforms like Instagram and Facebook. Unfortunately, when consumers share great product photos on Instagram & Facebook, it’s the platforms that win. They own the photo and its metadata.

Who is it for?

BYLINED bridges the gap between brands that are desperate for authentic user-generated content (UGC) and the customers that are already taking great photos of their products.

BYLINED is for brands that want to engage their fans to own UGC.

What makes it stand out from the crowd?

No other platform exists to connect brands with their fans for product-oriented photography. The only photo platforms that exist are stock photo websites (like Getty) or user-generated ‘sunrise/sunset’ photo sites (like 500px).

What’s next?

Raise a Series A, keep building out our technology, hire more people, and create a movement.
