9Pic AI vs Idomoo

Idomoo is an enterprise platform for personalised video, used by brands for marketing, onboarding and customer communications, and sold by custom quote. 9Pic AI is run by the event organiser: upload your photos and footage, and every participant gets a searchable gallery and a personal reel.

Last reviewed How we compare

Short answer

Pick 9Pic AI if you organise races or events and want every participant to get their photos and a personal reel, found by selfie or bib, with self-serve sign-up and published pricing.

Pick Idomoo if you are a large brand running personalised video for customers or a sponsor campaign, with CRM data, compliance needs and budget for an agency and custom production.

Main difference: who it is for. Idomoo renders personalised films from a brand's customer data. 9Pic AI turns an event's own photos and footage into a gallery and reels for the people in them.

Where they are the same

Both make a personal video for each person, both handle thousands of videos at once, and both send people to a link where they can watch and share.

Key differences

  1. Brand campaigns vs organiser-run event media

    Idomoo has powered sponsor campaigns at marathons, such as the personalised runner films adidas made at the 2018 Boston Marathon with an agency and custom filming. 9Pic AI is the organiser-run version: upload your own photos and footage, and every participant gets a gallery and a reel.

  2. Customer data vs photos people find themselves

    Idomoo renders each video from data a brand sends it, such as a name or account details. On 9Pic AI participants find their own photos by selfie or bib. On the Pro plan, 9Pic Flow makes a reel from the photos they pick, and 9Pic Motion cuts clips from your footage.

  3. Enterprise sales vs self-serve

    Idomoo quotes each customer by volume and support, and has closed its self-serve video creator to focus on company-scale production. 9Pic AI publishes its pricing, so a club race or a city marathon can sign up and set up an event the same day.

Where Idomoo is the better choice

  • You are a large brand sending personalised videos to customers for onboarding, billing or loyalty.
  • A sponsor wants a high-production campaign with an agency, custom filming and analytics.
  • You need SOC 2, ISO 27001 or HIPAA compliance and CRM integrations such as Salesforce.
  • You want AI-generated marketing videos from webpages and documents, not only event media.

How Idomoo charges

Idomoo does not publish prices. Every customer gets a custom quote based on video volume and the level of support, with optional full-service production. Its pricing form asks for company size, which points to an enterprise sales process. Its former self-serve video creator has closed. See the current numbers on Idomoo pricing[2][5]. Checked 26 Oct 2026.

Which costs less depends on whether you need event photos and reels or brand marketing video, how many people you reach, and how much custom production you want.

Moving event video to 9Pic AI

  1. Upload your event photos and footage with 9Pic Uplink after each wave or at the end of the event.

  2. Import your start list so bib numbers map to participants.

  3. Turn on Flow or Motion on the Pro plan for reels from photos or clips from long footage.

  4. Share one gallery link by email, results page or QR code.

What does not move: Idomoo video designs, templates and campaign analytics.
