Lay a photo on the plate, close the lid, click. The next one is already in your hand. Milliseconds per print, not half a minute — which is the difference between finishing the box and giving up on it.
A flatbed takes ten to thirty seconds a photo. This takes milliseconds. Over five hundred prints that is the difference between one afternoon and a month of evenings — and a month of evenings is how boxes end up back in the loft.
Because it photographs the print rather than scanning across itPlug in the USB-C cable and your computer recognises it on its own. Install the software, open the lid, start. Nothing to configure, nothing to download from a forum.
Because it uses the standard camera driver your computer already hasThe only print of your parents’ wedding stays on your own desk. No courier, no scanning service, no three-week wait wondering where it is.
Because it comes to the photos, not the other way roundInternal lighting inside a closed box means no window glare, no lamp shadow, no colour shift halfway through the pile. Print two hundred looks like print one.
Because the light is inside the lid, not in the room
Connect the USB-C cable to your PC or Mac. It installs itself. Open the included software.
Place a print face down on the plate and close the lid. Crop and adjust on screen if you want to.
The photo lands on your computer as a JPEG, near instantly. Lift the lid, swap the print, go again.
Three digital guides to get the most from your scanner — included free with your order.
Sort, prioritise and work through a loft full of prints without burning out — step by step.
Naming, dating and filing thousands of scans so you can actually find them again — and so your children can too.
A four-week programme: sort, digitise, organise, share.
Everything here is verifiable on the device.
“Four shoeboxes from my mother’s house. I had put it off for nine years because I knew how long a flatbed would take. This was one Sunday afternoon.”Diane R.Verified buyer
“A service quoted me 60 cents a print. I had about eleven hundred. The maths made the decision for me, and nothing left the house.”Alan H.Verified buyer
“It is not a museum scan and I did not want one. I wanted my father’s photographs on a screen where my kids would actually see them. That took an afternoon.”Ray T.Verified buyer
About 300 DPI, roughly 2500 by 1800 pixels. That is right for viewing, sharing and printing back at the same size. A flatbed at 1200 DPI captures more detail — and takes twenty times longer per photo. We chose the trade the other way round.
Windows 10 or higher, or a Mac on macOS 11 or higher. It will not work with a phone, a tablet or a Chromebook, and we would rather you knew that before ordering than after.
Full refund, no questions asked. One-year manufacturer warranty on materials and workmanship.
If the software will not open or a scan comes out wrong, you message us and a person answers.
