Capture employee photos efficiently with your phone—no app, no login required

Capturing employee photos is an integral part of many digital business processes - be it for access control, intranets, employee ID cards or onboarding processes. Companies that rely on outdated or manual methods quickly reach their limits. High time expenditure, unclear image quality and data protection risks are often the result.

With Photo Collect, the leading software solution for digital portrait photo capture, photos of employees or customers can be collected automatically, regardless of location. The process is completely web-based, fast, secure, and scalable – without login, without app installation, directly via smartphone.

Intuitive operation - no technical know-how required

Photos are captured via personalized upload links that are sent directly from the administration system - by e-mail, text message or letter with a QR code. The employee receives an individual link and can upload the photo within two minutes using their own mobile device. No app needs to be installed and no user account is required. Photo Collect therefore offers an extremely low barrier to entry for users of all ages. However, there are also other ways to obtain photos of employees with Photo Collect.

AI-based image processing for professional results

Photo Collect uses a powerful AI to automatically check and process the uploaded images. The software automatically recognizes faces, removes unsuitable backgrounds, crops the photo according to predefined requirements and centers the face. In addition, quality controls can be individually configured - including automatic re-requests for unusable images. This gives companies uniform, high-quality portraits - without any manual post-processing.

Scalable for large organizations and projects

The solution is specially designed for large organizations and companies. Thanks to its stable architecture and flexible interfaces, Photo Collect can easily process several thousand photos per day. Numerous major customers already rely on Photo Collect for their photo capture.

Data protection and security at the highest level

Photo Collect focuses on data protection and IT security. Processing takes place exclusively in ISO-certified data centers in Switzerland. Data transmission is fully encrypted and all personal information is automatically deleted once the process is complete. The solution is fully GDPR-compliant and meets the highest IT and data security requirements.

Flexible export options and system integration

The finished photos are available for export as a ZIP file, via sFTP or via an API interface. This allows Photo Collect to be seamlessly integrated into existing HR systems, ID card printing solutions or identity management platforms. Existing photo databases can also be standardized via Photo Collect.
