Good for fixing family photos or making headshots that look like the real person, with a free tier to start.
Kenning's take
What it does
Phota Studio asks for 30 to 50 photos of a person, then spends about 15 minutes training a private model of their face. With that model it can fix blurry or badly lit shots, add someone into a group photo, and generate headshots or new scenes while keeping the person's real features. It runs in the browser, works for pets too, and is made by Phota Labs, which also sells the same likeness technology as an API.
