Billion Hearts Software Technologies, established by serial entrepreneur Mayank Bidawatka — recognized as the co-founder of the social platform Koo — has unveiled PicSee, which it describes as the world's first AI-driven mutual photo-sharing application, the firm reported on October 16.

The app presents a “give to get” idea that enables users to automatically obtain pictures of themselves captured by friends — but solely when they reciprocate by sharing their own. After mutual approval, the exchange becomes effortless and ongoing, removing the necessity for manual photo requests or uploads.

“According to Bidawatka, the world has over 15 trillion photos, and an additional 2 trillion are taken annually — but the majority remain unshared. PicSee resolves this through a patent-pending mutual sharing process — you receive your undiscovered photos from friends, and for them to receive theirs, they share yours.”

PicSee employs AI-based facial recognition to analyze a user's photo collection, recognize their friends, and create customized invitations. As soon as both friends agree to the connection, the app instantly shares the pictures they’ve captured of one another.

Users have a 24-hour period to either approve or withdraw any image prior to its exchange, guaranteeing complete control over what is shared. The application operates in the background, identifying new images and encouraging users to engage with friends they’ve recently captured in photos.

In contrast to services like WhatsApp or Google Photos, PicSee removes the necessity for manual uploads or album setup. The company refers to it as a 'hassle-free photo sharing' — utilizing privacy-protecting AI to eliminate the barriers that typically restrain personal images in phone galleries.

PicSee's design emphasizes a privacy-first framework, which Bidawatka describes as “non-negotiable” for all contemporary consumer AI products. All images remain on users’ devices and are encrypted during transmission, which means that even PicSee staff cannot access or save them. The app additionally prevents screenshots, lets users retrieve shared pictures anytime, and mandates a 24-hour evaluation period before sharing.
