Pixpa builds a portfolio site with client galleries and a store. Obsydian is the protected page you link out from.
Pixpa is an all-in-one website builder aimed at photographers, artists, designers and other creatives: a portfolio site, password-protected client galleries for delivering shoots, and a built-in store with zero commission on sales. Plans run Basic ($8/mo), Creator ($15/mo), Professional ($20/mo) and Advanced ($25/mo), each with a 15-day free trial and no free tier — pricing scales with pages, images, products and storage.
We're biased — but honest.
Pixpa is built for photographers and designers who need a full portfolio site and a way to deliver client galleries — a real, different job to a link-in-bio page. Every Pixpa plan is paid, with no free tier at all, and there's no watermarking beyond manual overlays and no metadata scrubbing. Obsydian doesn't try to be a portfolio-site builder or client-delivery tool; it's a fast, protected link-out page with a genuinely free tier, automatic watermarking, and EXIF/GPS scrubbing built in.
