Pixbuf Launches Public Beta
14 August 2015
In a blog entry posted today, Pixbuf announced the launch of its public beta and the introduction of photographer's analytics to its uploading and sharing app.
Pixbuf. Upload, Share, Analyze.
"The way we take photographs has changed," the blog post observed. Pros use smartphones and nobody goes to local photo clubs to share photos. But there's less and less time to take photos.
Pixbuf is designed with all that in mind:
Pixbuf is here to change that, acting as a photographer's hub for automated sharing on various services like Facebook, Twitter, 500px, Flickr and others. You can easily upload your pictures, set up sharing and head out to the nature, city or studio to take more pictures. After you come back, the Photographer's Analytics feature will show you who liked your photos, how much and where they're from.
Supported services include Facebook, Twitter, 500px and Flickr. Pixbuf founder Filip Molcan said he plans to add Instagram, Pinterest and Google, as well as services for archiving pictures or applying for photo contests+.
"We want to give photographers back the time for photography. Making an exceptional picture is very difficult today. Standing out from the crowd on the Internet is even harder and that's where we want to help," Molcan said.

Pixbuf Wants to Change the Way Photographers Share Their Work
Pixbuf, the best social media management tool for photographers, launches public beta and introduces photographer's analytics.
The way we take photographs has changed. Even professional photographers take pictures using smartphones, post-processing is largely automatic and very soon, mobile phones will be capturing photographs of equal quality as today's dSLRs. Similarly, the way we share photographs has also changed. Nobody goes to local photo clubs anymore; instead, photographers share their pictures on countless social networks and with professional communities, submit them into competitions and try to sell them in photo galleries.
Pixbuf creates a platform for aggregating data from all available services, finally giving photographers an idea of who likes their pictures and what communities they're from. Pixbuf becomes a powerful analytical tool, providing photographers with their own "Google Analytics."
In between all those activities, less and less time is left for what's really important -- taking pictures. Pixbuf is here to change that, acting as a photographer's hub for automated sharing on various services like Facebook, Twitter, 500px, Flickr and others. You can easily upload your pictures, set up sharing and head out to the nature, city or studio to take more pictures. After you come back, the Photographer's Analytics feature will show you who liked your photos, how much and where they're from.
Filip Molcan, founder of Pixbuf, plans to add more networks like Instagram, Pinterest or Google+, as well as services for archiving pictures or applying for photo contests. Soon also through the use of Adobe Lightroom plug-in.
"We want to give photographers back the time for photography. Making an exceptional picture is very difficult today. Standing out from the crowd on the Internet is even harder and that's where we want to help," says Filip Molcan, founder of Pixbuf.
Pixbuf wants to change the way photographers work with their media -- allow them to easily upload, plan and share photos to all social networks, photography communities, contests or markets.
