The Samaro alternative with no guest limits
Samaro’s plans are sold per event, with a cap on media and a cap on guests, from 100 guests on the trial to 1,500 on the largest tier. Indian weddings routinely go beyond that. SpotMe never counts guests: every guest can find their photos, on one storage-based account.
No guest caps
Samaro caps guests per event, up to 1,500. SpotMe lets every guest in, however big the wedding.
One account, every event
No buying a plan for each event. Storage is shared, and deleting an event returns it.
99.99% accurate, self-hosted AI
Models we trained ourselves, running on our own servers. Zero data shared with third-party AI providers.

Why photographers choose SpotMe over Samaro
Every guest, every time
A big Indian wedding can bring 2,000 guests across the Sangeet and reception. On a guest-capped plan, some of them cannot get in. SpotMe has no guest caps.
One account instead of one plan per event
Buying a tier for every event adds up over a wedding season. SpotMe is one storage-based account that costs less than the alternatives, and deleting an event frees its storage.
Accuracy you can trust
SpotMe’s face-recognition models are trained in-house and benchmarked on real wedding and event photos at 99.99% accuracy.
Private by design
Every model runs on SpotMe’s own servers. Photos and faces are never sent to a third-party AI provider, and guest selfies are never stored.
Verified leads for your studio
Every guest verifies their mobile number with a one-time code, and you can export the list as a CSV for your next season’s marketing.
When Samaro may suit you better
- You also want digital invitations and RSVPs from the same platform.
If getting photos to the couple and every guest is what matters most, SpotMe is built for exactly that.
