Kepla
The ShootProof alternative with an AI that works your client list
ShootProof is one of the closest tools to what Kepla is building — galleries plus invoicing and contracts, with no commission on sales. Kepla’s difference is what happens after delivery: an AI back office that rebooks last year’s clients, defends your scope, and finds any photo by description.
Pricing and features referenced on this page were checked in July 2026 against ShootProof's public pricing page. ShootProof is a trademark of its owner; Kepla is not affiliated with ShootProof.
A solid all-in-one — without the automation layer
ShootProof’s plans run free to $50/month (billed annually), priced by photo count, with zero commission on prints and digitals across every tier — a real strength. Paid plans include invoicing and e-sign contracts, so it genuinely covers galleries and the basics of the business side.
Where Kepla pulls ahead is the active layer. ShootProof stores your clients; Kepla acts on them — booking a deposit auto-creates the gallery, an unsigned contract gets a drafted nudge, an out-of-scope request gets a boundary reply with a Stripe upsell attached, and eleven months later a rebooking email drafts itself. Plus AI built for images: semantic Magic Search and guest face-match.

Where ShootProof is genuinely strong
ShootProof is a mature, fair product: zero commission on every plan, a real print store with lab fulfillment, multi-brand support, and photo-count pricing that suits high-volume shooters. If you sell a lot of prints or need to manage several brands today, it’s a strong, proven choice. Kepla’s wager is that the automation and image-AI layer — rebooking, scope defense, semantic search, face-match — is what actually moves revenue for most working photographers, and that’s where a newer, photographer-only platform can lead.
Comparable price, a very different engine
ShootProof’s all-in tier is $50/month for unlimited photos; Kepla’s founding Studio plan is $39/month, locked, with the AI suite included. But the honest comparison isn’t the sticker — it’s the recovered revenue: unsigned contracts nudged, balances chased, and last year’s clients rebooked automatically. Compare full stacks in the cost calculator.
Bring your galleries and clients across
Kepla’s migration hub imports galleries via Google Drive or bulk URL ingest and pulls client/project records from CSV exports, so switching doesn’t mean rebuilding by hand. Founding members get white-glove migration help.
