Finishers Memories

After several years working alongside the biggest organizers of races in France and internationally, a shared observation emerged: photos are an essential part of today’s user experience ✅. Everyone wants to leave with a memory of the event, and photos are the best way to do that 🤌. However, between legislation, payment methods, file transfers, and finding photographers, it’s a real project—even for the most motivated organizers 💨. With Finishers Memories, you reduce it all to a link, a platform, and a centralization of all information ℹ️. So if you want to get prepared on the topic, take a look at our benefits:

🔸 For organizers 🥸

The "Memories" offer was designed in collaboration with many race organizers, to make providing personalized photos smoother and faster 😇. The tool aims to be as complete as possible and meets a whole bunch of specialized needs. By the way, if you’d like to see new features added, you can always contact us to tell us about your project 🤗. One of the real advantages of Finishers Memories is how it works ⚙️. On the legal side, we’re fully compliant. Our system is based entirely on bib number recognition, not facial recognition ❌. No data about participants’ pretty faces or any other biometric data is therefore stored on the organizers’ side. Next, no more headaches trying to find the most suitable photographer for the event—Finishers has a whole list to recommend to you 📋.

🔸 For photographers 📷

Collaborative work between multiple stakeholders has never been so easy 🤝. Photographers, organizers, and athletes share the same platform to upload, sell, and buy photos. Photographers are given exclusive access so they can upload their beautiful shots as quickly as possible. An intuitive tool and fair compensation, Finishers Memories is going to make people happy 😁.

🔸 For athletes 🏃

Finishers as a reference point: one entity that manages event promotion, ticketing, communication, posts the results of the latest edition online, and where you can find the best images of your effort 🤩. Nothing could be simpler. Plus, as mentioned above, no sensitive data is recorded: no facial or biometric recognition; everything is done via the bib number 🎽. Runners just have to type in their bib number (or their partner’s if they want to see which of the two suffered the most 😂) and that’s it. All photos stored under that number appear instantly. No more hours of searching through Google Drives with more than 10,000 photos 🤪.

With Finishers Memories, a whole new world opens up for you 🌍. A new mission, lighter and easier, so you can fully focus on more important areas that deserve all your attention—for example, aid stations and nutrition 🤤.
