Chevereto lets you self-host your own image and video hosting site. See its free open-source edition, paid Lite/Pro licenses, and key features.
Chevereto is self-hosted image and video hosting software created by Rodolfo Berríos, in development since 2007 and formalized as a company in 2012. It lets operators run their own private, fully branded media-sharing website on their own servers, similar in concept to Imgur or Flickr but without depending on a third-party host.
The software is a PHP application that can be deployed via Docker, a VPS, or standard hosting control panels, and is available under both an open-source AGPLv3 license (Free edition) and a proprietary commercial license (Lite and Pro editions) for teams that want additional features and support.
Chevereto supports multi-user accounts with two-factor authentication and role-based access, media organization through albums and tags, and multi-tenant hosting so one installation can serve multiple independent sites. It integrates with CDNs and object storage providers like Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage, and Alibaba Cloud.
The platform supports over 30 languages and exposes an extensive API for programmatic uploads, making it suitable for both direct end-user hosting sites and integrations with other applications.
The Chevereto Free edition is open source (AGPLv3) and free to self-host indefinitely. Chevereto Lite and Pro are paid, proprietary-licensed editions sold as subscriptions; a license key grants updates and support during the active subscription period, and any version released during that time can be used perpetually afterward.
Exact Lite and Pro pricing is published on chevereto.com and varies by plan; prospective buyers should check the current rates directly, since Chevereto periodically adjusts pricing for new subscribers while honoring existing subscribers' locked-in rates.
