Introducing Albums: A Beautiful New Way to Organize Your Event Memories

Wed, 19 Nov 2025 10:00:00 +0200

Your events often have many moments, many parts, and many stories — and now you can organize them all beautifully in Albums.

Whether you’re hosting a wedding with multiple celebrations or managing a multi-day corporate event, Albums help you keep everything structured, easy to browse, and stunning to look at.

✨ What Are Albums?

Albums let you group photos and videos into separate collections inside your event.
It’s perfect for events that have different chapters, locations, or timelines.

Introducing Tiered Plans for Every Event

Fri, 19 Sep 2025 17:06:04 +0200

Planning an event should be about memories, not megabytes. Until now, our pricing was based on storage size (GBs). While it worked, it forced hosts and organizers to think about something too technical.

We believe you shouldn’t have to calculate gigabytes when planning your special day. Instead, we’ve simplified everything to focus on what really matters: how many photos and videos you want to collect and share.

That’s why we’re moving to tiered plans based on number of uploads. Each plan includes everything you need to collect, share, and relive your event content — with features tailored to match the size and complexity of your event.

Take Control: Powerful Access Settings for Every Event

Mon, 28 Jul 2025 09:30:47 +0200

Not every event is the same — and not every host wants the same level of openness, privacy, or interaction. That’s why Chivent gives you a powerful set of access control options, so you can customize how guests can view, upload, download, and interact with your event.

From intimate weddings to team celebrations and everything in between, these options help ensure your event flows exactly how you want it to.

Why We’re Reducing Free Storage from 1GB to 200MB

Fri, 25 Jul 2025 14:03:14 +0200

We’re making a change: The free storage limit for events is now 200MB (previously 1GB).
And we want to be transparent about why — and how it helps you avoid surprises on your special day.

🧪 The Real Purpose of the Free Plan

We created the free plan to let you try Chivent before committing — explore the features, test the upload flow, and see if it’s the right fit for your event.

Built from Scratch, With Privacy in Mind

Thu, 24 Jul 2025 07:00:00 +0200

At Chivent, we often get asked:

“Is this built on top of another tool or service?”

The answer is simple: No, it’s not.
Chivent is 100% built and owned by our team — from the ground up.

We’re not a wrapper, plugin, or front-end for someone else’s platform. Every feature, from the event pages to the AI design assistant and smart tagging, is crafted by us — specifically for the Chivent experience.

Guests Registration

🙋 New: Guest Registration & Upload Tracking

Planning an “I Spy” photo challenge? Want to see who captured what moment?
Now you can — with Guest Registration.

By default, guests upload anonymously. But now, with Guest Registration, you can:

Collect guest name & email (no sign-up or verification needed)
See who uploaded what in the Media Gallery
Make guest info visible on the event page
Filter uploads by guest

🔐 Optional or Required — You Choose

Optional: Guests can choose to provide their info.
Required: Guests must provide name & email to upload or access the event.

📍To enable it, go to the Dashboard → Guests

Guests Can Now Delete Their Own Uploads

Thu, 10 Jul 2025 10:00:00 +0200

Intrudction

You asked — we listened. Guests can now delete their own photos and videos directly from the event page, without needing to contact the host.

This gives guests more control over what they share, especially if they uploaded something by mistake.

🔐 Host Controls Available

This feature is optional and can be toggled via:
Settings → Access Control → Guest Delete Permission

ℹ️ How It Works

Guests can delete their uploads for up to 7 days after uploading.
If guest login is enabled (with name/email), this window can be extended.
No account is needed — we use the browser to identify them.
Clearing browser data or switching browsers may remove delete access.

Let your guests manage their content — easily and respectfully.
