The story

Capsule was founded in 2011 by Cyrus Faraudi and Omri Cohen. The idea came after being invited to a combined 14 weddings and 9 bachelor parties in a single year. After the first bachelor party, both found it frustrating to aggregate photos from different people on different platforms such as Facebook, Flickr, and Picasa. It was released out of beta in 2012 with a website and apps for both the iPhone and Android marketplaces.

In 2013, Capsule entered into a partnership with The Knot, an online wedding planning website operated by XO Group Inc. The partnership included The Knot integrating the group photo-sharing technology into its website, allowing users to have a central album of their wedding photos taken by others. It was also featured in a 2013 episode of "TheBeach Meets TheStreet," a weekly series on TheStreet.com.
