Ente

An end-to-end encrypted photo-sharing platform (alternative to Google Photos, Apple Photos).


Product Overview

Ente is an innovative, end-to-end encrypted photo-sharing platform that offers a secure and private alternative to popular services like Google Photos and Apple Photos. As a cloud-based mobile and desktop app, Ente provides a fully open-source solution for storing your data in the cloud without requiring you to trust the service provider. The platform is built around two main products: Ente Photos, an alternative to traditional photo-sharing apps, and Ente Auth, a 2FA alternative to services like Authy.

Main Features of Ente

Ente's flagship product, Ente Photos, offers a range of features designed to provide users with a secure and private way to share their photos. These features include:

  • End-to-end encryption: All data is encrypted and only accessible by you, ensuring that even Ente's own servers cannot access your content.
  • 3x data replication: Your photos are stored in three different locations, ensuring that your data is always available and protected against loss or corruption.
  • On-device machine learning: Machine learning algorithms are run locally on your device, rather than on Ente's servers, to ensure that your data remains private.
  • Private sharing: Share your photos with others while maintaining end-to-end encryption, ensuring that only those you intend to share with can access the content.
  • Collaborative albums: Create shared photo albums with friends and family, all within a secure and encrypted environment.
  • Family plans: Enjoy discounted pricing for families or groups who want to use Ente's services together.
  • Easy import and export: Transfer your photos from other platforms like Google Photos or Apple Photos using Ente's simple migration process.

Ente also offers a Command Line Interface (CLI) for those who prefer to run the service on their own servers, providing an additional layer of control and customization.
