  Pic-Time sells subscription access to its gallery-delivery, proofing, and
  print-sales platform directly to photographers - there is no API usage to
  meter because no public developer API exists. Four tiers (Free, Beginner,
  Professional, Advanced) scale primarily on photo/video storage and feature
  access (custom branding, slideshows, blogs, smart search, multi-brand
  support), with a store commission on Pic-Time-collected print/product sales
  that decreases at higher tiers.
notes: >-
  Prices and storage figures were captured from Pic-Time's public pricing page
  on the review date and are subject to change; verify current rates before
  quoting. Multi-brand add-ons on the Advanced plan are priced per additional
  brand ($6/month as published).
