Upload one selfie, get five professional headshots in about a minute for only $1. One catch — we match you with a random bird that appears in all your headshots. You can remove it from your favorite or include the bird in your headshot, if you take a liking to it.
Okay here we go!
Other headshot generators spreading on Linkedin charge high prices for $.10 of compute. They are functionally interchangeable and take your money to bid up google key words.
I saw an opportunity to offer a similar functionality at a greatly reduced price and add some personality to an otherwise boring tool. The bird branding is our calling call and represents the fun nature of this product. We want you to have great headshots you love. Why not also brighten your day with a fun bird companion? You can choose to leave the bird or remove the bird. In either case, it's a great experience delivered for a lot less than competitors. You might even learn a bird fact or two.
The difficult aspect of this project was aligning a prompt + image model that could deliver a strong output ~100% of the time. Eventually I cracked it. I tried ingesting one photo, multiple photos, different outfit and background prompts, many different imagery models, different ways to render the bird, and A/B/C test combos for all of the above. Ultimately I was able to put together a system that is robust and accurate.
I would be honored to find some "bird bros" on Product Hunt who want a bird in their profile pic!
Uploaded a quick selfie and got five surprisingly usable headshots back, plus a pelican that's now weirdly photogenic. Worth the dollar just for the laugh alone.
@dnegayretztem The Pelican is handsome bird! Thanks for giving it a try.
Tried it out of curiosity and the turnaround was honestly faster than I expected, like under a minute for five shots. The random pelican photobombing my serious headshots was weirdly charming, way better than the stiff corporate look I was dreading.
Love that you leaned into the absurdity instead of hiding it. Letting people keep the bird in their favorite shot is such a small UX choice but it makes the whole thing feel charming rather than gimmicky.
My profile pic now has a pigeon photobombing my shoulder and honestly I kind of love it. Turnaround was genuinely under a minute and the photo quality surprised me for a buck.
