Awesome team, wonderful product. One stop shop for crafting physical books from special memories.
Trivia: also built using Dart. If you have any techt-stack related questions: Dan @dan_schultz might be able to help out :)
We just got ownership of all our wedding photos. Putting together a physical collection of our favorite photos is a weekend project I want to do. I will now be putting this together with Montage.
@KristoferTM We didn't pay for the expensive book the photographer offered. I think their margins on that are way too good.
I think, it is great execution and great product.
The problem of this business model is 1) frequency 2) losing magic.
I mean that how many times can a customer can order a photobook? I think it may not be so much. Because in order to order a book, people firstly should create nice content (and it is hard). Secondly, magic effect is important. When gifting it at the first time, it can have a magic; but at the second time, it may perceive a usual gift.
And, i have an idea to skyrocket this business. I think you should add gallery function. I may want to buy a travel blogger's European trip album, or an artist's inspiring photos or other photo collectors.
You can invent a new kind of publishing platform. Imagine it as a "Tashcen for social media age" So, you will solve frequency problem. as a customer, i can buy a new book every period.

@ozguralaz agree with you regarding the magic - have seen that happen with mosaic a similar product. nice idea about ordering other people's books - blurb does this dont know how successful it is.

I'll try this. I made a photo book last year and tried all the different products. The only one that really worked for me was Costco's, actually. Lot of trouble just re-ordering photos in the other options.
@arrington I'd highly recommend it. Mine arrived today and it turned out great. Really high quality and fast shipping. My girlfriend is going to love it. http://imgur.com/1EKacUU
this is an awesome concept - i'm going to buy one.
i wonder about the business potential:
1) how are they acquiring customers?
2) how did they arrive at at that pricing?
3) what are the margins?
