A closer look
Privacy & Data Usage
Our Moments
Your photos are analyzed solely to generate searchable descriptions for you. No data is shared with advertisers, and images are never used for model training. Database-level row-level security means even our team can't view your files.
Google Photos
Google Photos scans your images to improve their AI models and serve you targeted ads. Your photos contribute to training Google's machine learning systems. Google's privacy policy grants broad rights over uploaded content.
Search Experience
Our Moments
Type full sentences like "our first date at the Italian restaurant" and get semantically matched results. The AI understands context, mood, and relationships between objects — not just keywords.
Google Photos
Google Photos has excellent search, but it searches across your entire library (work screenshots, memes, food photos). There's no way to scope search to just your couple photos without manual albums.
Couple-Specific Design
Our Moments
The entire product is designed for exactly two people. One invite link, one shared space, one search index covering both your uploads. No group albums, no social features, no complexity.
Google Photos
Google Photos supports sharing, but it's not couple-focused. Shared albums require manual management, and there's no unified search across both partners' uploads.
The verdict
Google Photos is an incredible general-purpose photo tool — but it wasn't designed for couples, and your data isn't private. If you want a dedicated, private space to store and search your relationship memories with AI, Our Moments is the better fit.
