About Popsa

Popsa sits at the intersection of generative AI, photography and eCommerce. According to Deloitte, we are one of the UK’s fastest-growing tech startups, and in 2022 the Financial Times ranked us in the Top 5 fastest growing software companies in the whole of Europe.

We have the backing of some excellent investors. Our native iOS and Android apps are available in 12 languages – attracting more than 5 million users to date – and we ship to 50 countries around the world. Only 15% of Popsa’s revenue comes from the UK (France is our top market whilst the US is our fastest growing).

People come to us to create photobooks and other products, but what we really do is help them process their lives and relationships through reflection on their photos.

Our ambition is to be a space to explore all of life’s moments and the emotions that come with them – not just the highlights. So holidays, but also lazy days and sad days too. We believe the more you reflect, the better you understand yourself and your connections with others.

We’re developing an AI-driven platform that effortlessly generates personalised content based on the data contained in photos, removing countless anxieties usually associated with creative tasks and empowering everyday people with professional storytelling techniques for the first time.
