Pelli
Brest, France
What it is
Pelli is a web platform for photographers that brings client galleries, business management, marketing and AI tools into one service. Photographers can make selection and delivery galleries or portfolios, with client proofing, favorites, comments, downloads, watermarking and gallery statistics. Business tools cover contacts, quotes, invoices, contracts, payment tracking and automated workflows. The Léa copilot can assist with drafting quotes and organizing business tasks; a separate public chatbot can respond to prospect questions on a website. Pelli lists Spotify integration for gallery music and Stripe for online store payments. Online booking is included with Ultra, where clients request an available slot; the booking form does not take deposit payments. The service has a free plan, a 15-day trial and paid plans from €5/mo. Listed plan prices are $9/month for Lite, $39/month for Pro and $79/month for Ultra. Pelli says its AI tools are opt-in and that data is not used to train AI models.
