About Guai

Guai is a robust, open-source alternative to commercial photo-sharing giants. Inspired by the clean aesthetics of platforms like Pexels and the community feel of Flickr, Guai provides a distraction-free environment for photographers to host, organize, and share their high-quality imagery.

Whether you are a professional looking for a portfolio showcase or a hobbyist wanting to share your perspective with the world, Guai offers the tools you need without the algorithmic clutter of modern social media.

We built Guai from a desire to reclaim ownership of our digital creativity. In an era where user data is a commodity and platforms lock content behind paywalls or ads, we wanted to create a transparent, self-hostable solution.

Our mission is to foster a community where the focus remains strictly on the art. We believe in open source, privacy, and the freedom to create without compromise.
