About Immich

Immich is a high-performance self-hosted photo and video backup solution designed as a direct replacement for Google Photos and Apple Photos. Featuring native mobile apps for iOS and Android, local machine learning for facial recognition and semantic search, and multi-user support, Immich delivers an ultra-smooth, modern gallery experience.

Why Immich Stands Out

  • CLIP Semantic Search: Find photos by describing the scene without manual tagging or cloud API reliance.
  • Partner Library Sharing: Effortlessly share complete photo timelines between partners and family members.
  • Blazing Fast Performance: Engineered with modern microservices for instant thumbnail loading and smooth scrolling.

Immich Technologies

  • TypeScript & Node.js Engine: High-concurrency API server and microservice job queues for media processing.
  • PostgreSQL with pgvector: Relational database paired with pgvector for lightning-fast CLIP semantic search.
  • Python Machine Learning Service: Dedicated microservice running facial recognition and CLIP embedding models.
  • Redis Task Queue & Cache: Asynchronous job scheduler managing thumbnail generation and video transcode pipelines.
