Beyond athletics

We built it for the sideline.
The problem isn't only on the sideline.

GalleryID started as a sports tool: match the roster to the game photos, put the athlete's name in the file, deliver by halftime. Athletic departments run their whole sport slate on it.

But the same problem lives all over campus. Marketing keeps a drive full of event photos nobody can search. Development has a decade of gala coverage and no fast way to find one donor in it. Commencement produces thousands of photos a year, findable only by date.

The engine doesn't know it's a sports tool. It matches faces against a list. Any list.

One archive, every office

Every office has faces to find. One place to look.

Where it started

Athletics

20+ sports on one archive. Wire delivery by halftime, roster matching across seasons, and AthleteID portals for NIL distribution.

Marketing & Communications

The president, with students, in the new lab

Stop scrubbing folders for the right face. Search a name — president, dean, featured faculty — and every usable shot across every event comes back.

Development & Alumni

Every photo of a donor, ten years deep

Galas, groundbreakings, reunions, hall of fame nights. Match against your donor list once and the next development director inherits a searchable archive instead of a mystery drive.

Admissions

Tour days and admitted-student events

Find every shot of a student ambassador or tour guide instantly. Build view-only galleries for the team that needs them — nothing they should not see.

Student Life

Orgs, traditions, campus events

Homecoming, orientation, club fairs. Named galleries students can actually find themselves in — delivered from the same archive comms already uses.

Schools & Departments

Each school its own archive, one platform

Engineering, business, medicine, law — the individual schools within a university each run their own faculty, events, and student photos through the shared archive, while central marketing still searches across all of them.

The campus calendar

Football Saturday. Commencement May.

The whole year runs through one archive. Search by person across all of it.

Saturday
Football. 1,500 photos.
Wire push to AP and Getty by halftime. Comms grabs named files. Social has hero shots before the postgame presser.
May
Commencement. 8,000 photos.
Every graduate findable by name. Families get their photos. Marketing pulls named shots for admitted-student campaigns.
October
Donor gala.
Development pulls every photo of one major donor across a decade of events — before the thank-you note goes out.
Any Tuesday
A media request.
A reporter needs the provost at last spring’s ribbon cutting. Search the name, send the file.

NIL distribution

Your athletes. Your portal. Their photos.

AthleteID is a branded athlete portal that runs on your domain. Athletes see their own photos, with names already in the file, in your department's look and feel.

Push named galleries to each athlete on the roster. Athletes log in, view what's tagged of them across the season, and download with names already embedded. They share to NIL deals with your branding intact.

Permissions stay yours. Your athletic department controls what an athlete can see, which sports they belong to, and when access begins and ends. Add NIL coordinators as users to manage the program centrally.

AthleteID is included with paid plans. No per-athlete charge, no per-portal license.

How it generalizes

Any list of people is a roster.

Import the list with headshots. MatchID does the rest. Each name is written into the file itself (XMP/IPTC PersonInImage), so the archive stays searchable even outside the platform.

Access control

Every department in.
Nobody in each other's folders.

Five built-in roles, set at the folder level. Athletics runs its sports folders. Development's donor event files stay with development. Admissions sees admissions. The comms director sees campus-wide.

Each action logs to an audit trail — user, timestamp, resource, result. When a privacy or records question comes up, the answer is a lookup, not an investigation. No global headshot index, no cross-client data sharing, no model training on your photos.

Common questions

From colleges & universities.

Does MatchID work outside of sports?

Yes. MatchID matches faces against any list of people with headshots — a team roster, a faculty directory, a donor list, a cast list. Jersey OCR is a sports bonus; face matching is the core, and it works the same at a gala as it does on a sideline.

How does pricing work across departments?

One institutional bill, sized by storage. Standard starts at $10/mo for 100 GB and scales to 1.5 TB; most full-institution archives land in Volume (2 TB+, from $160/mo). Unlimited users, MatchID, and rosters are included at every tier, no matter how many departments join.

Can each department have its own space?

Yes. Folder-level permissions with five built-in roles. Each department manages its own folders, uploads, and galleries. Campus-wide roles (like the comms director) can see across departments; everyone else sees only what they are granted.

How does NIL distribution work?

AthleteID is the dedicated athlete portal. Your athletic department creates AthleteID accounts for the roster and pushes galleries to each athlete. Athletes log in, view their named photos, comment on individuals, and download with names already embedded. Your department branding wraps the experience.

What about student privacy and records rules?

GalleryID is a photo management platform — compliance with your institution’s privacy policies, records rules, and NCAA likeness rules stays your responsibility. Role-based access, per-folder scoping, and the audit log are designed to make that easier to manage and demonstrate.

Do you store our photos or train on them?

You own the data. GalleryID is the processor, not the owner. There is no global headshot database and no model training across client data. Your reference libraries live in your account and benefit only you.

Where should we start?

One department. Athletics or commencement is the natural pilot — prove the search works, then add offices from there. The 14-day trial covers the pilot.
