From Accidental Business to AI Innovators

In our current form, Snapbar is an experiential marketing platform. A far cry from the part-time, garage-born photo booth rental business our founders started in 2012.
Today, brands around the world use Snapbar to run AI-powered photo and video experiences at their events and marketing activations.
Our story is one of innovation, luck, pivots, resilience, and relationships. The relationships we’ve built internally, and the relationships that built us - from our fantastic client roster, to the culture and closeness of our team, to the millions of people that have been given a reason to smile while using our products.
Since 2012, Snapbar has powered experiential marketing activations for brands like Microsoft, Google, Toyota, and ServiceNow.

It’s been a wild ride. We feel so lucky to work with some of the most creative people and brands around the world to continue delivering on our original mission - capturing moments and giving people a reason to smile.
At the heart of everything we do is a simple premise: people love to share the best of what they experience. Our products are designed to tap into this desire, enabling fun, engaging content creation that resonates with people, and delivers value for brands.
As we look to the future, we're excited about the possibilities that lie ahead. Brands want marketing people actually take part in, AI keeps expanding what a photo or video experience can be, and guests expect experiences made for them. Together, that's an incredible opportunity for innovation and growth.
Whether you want a modern digital photo booth at your next event or an AI-powered campaign that turns every guest into marketing fuel, we can do that. Capturing moments and connecting people is our passion and inspiration for everything we build.
Thank you for being a part of our journey. We can't wait to see what we'll create together!
