A Speed-First Desktop Uploader for Event Photos

Stop watching progress bars. Uplink is built to get photos delivered faster โ€” with local quick compression, resumable uploads, and distributed uploading across multiple photographers.

Built for Post-Event Delivery

Local Quick Compression

Compress on your computer to optimize upload speed. If your internet is weak, start compression first โ€” upload faster once youโ€™re back on a strong network.

Resume From Last Synced File

Connection dropped? Uplink resumes from the last known synced file โ€” no re-uploading already-synced files.

Strict File Support (Fast + Predictable)

Upload only what you need: JPG/JPEG images and MP4 video. Built for speed-first delivery without extra format complexity.

Bulk HEIC to JPG

Convert mobile photos from HEIC to JPG in bulk so they can be uploaded right after the event.

Distributed Uploads (Unlimited Photographers)

No limit on how many photographers can upload for a single event. Upload from different locations, and the organiser downloads everything in one place.

Preserves Folder Structure

Uploads keep the same folder structure as your local drive, so photographers can immediately identify whatโ€™s what.

Time-to-Delivery Is the #1 Priority

After an event, every minute counts. Uplink focuses on upload speed first โ€” local quick compression + resumable transfers โ€” so your photos are ready for processing and delivery as fast as possible.
