Product philosophy

Photos should belong to users, not cloud platforms.

Stream is a management layer for the places your photos already live. It connects existing sources, preserves choice, and brings a modern search and management experience without forcing a cloud migration.

Connect what exists

Local Photos, NAS, WebDAV, S3, FTP, Immich, and PhotoPrism can become one library.

Keep data yours

Original photos and organization data should remain under user control.

Avoid lock-in

Stream manages photos in place instead of becoming another closed vault.

AI for memory

Search should help you find memories naturally, not create a new platform dependency.
