Comparison
PhotoSafe vs Google Photos
Private beta: PhotoSafe is not on sale; accounts are invite-only. Public pricing is unavailable.
PhotoSafe is an end-to-end encrypted photo backup: files are encrypted on the user's device with AES-256-GCM using a key the service never receives, with dedup, link-shared albums and one-button full export. It is in private beta and the homepage states nothing can be bought today.
Choose by workflow
- Check whether encryption keys ever reach the service.
- Test a full-resolution export and restore before migrating.
- Review recovery and shared-album behavior.
- Compare capacity at your expected library size, not only the entry price.

A useful evaluation
Run the same sample task in each shortlisted option. Record setup time, manual corrections and the quality of the export. Choose the option that fits the work you actually need to complete.
