I really expected to see some "before" shots to understand the value of the solution. For all I know, the input photos were already great...
They're there, just above them. Super tiny, so it's understandable they were missed.

#82I have no problem of photos looking unnatural. Would pay if it made me look like a photo model ;)
Would be great to see examples of the pictures people sent in and the results. The examples on the page are clearly rented pictures of photo models taken by professionally photographers.

#84When will people fn learn that smiling is a rare thing. Do not smile, no matter what the idiotic photpographer asks you when creating your corpo headhsot.
Or, you know, let people do what they enjoy doing in photos.

#85Or you can just take decent pictures? Is this really something we need? I dunno, it leaves a bad taste in my mouth somehow. Like we’re replacing the things that should be uniquely human with something fake.
Pay for 1k+ international plane rides or coordinate a small army of remote photographers all to have the same style somehow, paying all of them at the same time, perhaps contributing quite a lot to the climate change problem in the process just for some photos.
Or shell out 30 bucks pro-mensch to get a consistent headshot of all employees using whatever Tinder/Grindr/insta photos they have laying around.
I don't own a large company but I know which option I'd pick if I needed to do this.

Had to protect myself and join the fight ;)
Well, look at you! Joining the fight like a superhero. Don't forget to wear your cape and mask next time for extra protection! ;-)

#88Earlier quoted context omitted.
I live with an actor. Every year or so she gets a set of professional headshots done which costs somewhere between £300 and £1000 depending on the photographer. While the quality of a professional set is undoubtedly better than these (currently) they're not so far off and I can see an acting student or jobbing actor going for a service like this if they're skint.
You still need high quality photos to generate these headshots. Anyone can just put those photos in midjourney or stable diffusion, and with ~10 minutes of prompting, generate their stylized headshots?
You absolutely do not need high quality headshots, that's not how stable diffusion works. I've used similar services before and your run of the mill duck face selfies work fine.

#89Not to take away from this awesome product and brilliant idea, but we are all hackers here- how can(?) I do this for free?
