We are a team of problem solvers and field operators who have set out to make that happen. With SpotMyPhotos by CloudSpotter, you no longer have to search to find the photos you are in. Your photos now find you through our platform powered by artificial intelligence – privately and automatically.
Photos are everywhere. Receiving and sharing them should be frictionless.
We are guided by a value for upholding individuals’ privacy preferences, an appreciation for our customers and partners as collaborators, and a relentless drive to continually iterate and grow the capabilities of the SpotMyPhotos platform.
