What is Journi AI? Your personal Photo Book designer

What is Journi AI (and how does it work)?

Journi AI is your personal, on-demand designer.

It’s a smart technology built into the Journi app that tackles the biggest challenges of creating a Photo Book: sorting through hundreds (or thousands!) of photos and designing beautiful, professional layouts.

Instead of you spending hours on this tedious task, our AI photo book creator does it for you in seconds. 

Journi AI intelligently:

• Finds the story in your photos: To build your beautiful book, our AI looks at the 'when' and 'where' of your photos to instantly arrange them into a perfect timeline, adding maps and location stamps so you can retrace your travels.
• Filters out the clutter: It automatically removes screenshots from your photo selection.
• Arranges your timeline: It puts your photos in chronological order to tell the story of your trip or your year as it happened.
• Creates beautiful layouts: It groups photos to create dynamic, magazine-style page designs.

AI gives you the perfect starting point, but you're always the editor. Swap photos, change layouts, choose your favorite colors, and write captions to make the story completely yours.

Beyond speed: A commitment to quality

A fast Photo Book is great, but a book that lasts a lifetime is even better. 

At Journi, we pair our revolutionary AI speed with an unwavering commitment to quality and sustainability.

• Premium printing: Every Journi Photo Book is printed with care by our local printing partners in the US, UK, Australia, and Europe. We use advanced printing technology to ensure your photo colors are rich and true to life.
• Sustainably sourced paper: We print on thick, premium paper that is FSC-certified. This means it's sourced from responsibly managed forests that protect our planet’s biodiversity and environment.
• Built to last: With our durable binding options, including a professional hardcover, your Photo Book is a keepsake designed to be passed down through generations.

Your story, powered by AI, perfected by you

Technology should serve creativity, not replace it. That’s why we created Journi AI. It will take over the heavy lifting for you so you can focus on the fun parts. 

It handles the timeline, the sorting, and the layout of your photos, creating the perfect canvas for you to work with.

From there, you’re the creative director. You add the inside jokes, the heartfelt captions, and the stylistic touches that make the book truly yours. 

When you create with the Journi app, you’re not just getting a Photo Book; you're getting a stress-free creative experience and a beautiful story to show for it.
