PortraitPhoto.ai
Professional headshots with AI
Building PortraitPhoto.ai has definitely been a challenging road, and as a solo-founder there is always more to do than realistically time. While marketing is always a challenge and takes as much time as coding, feedback is what is always welcome. So for all users wanting to use the product and give your 2 cents we have the 50% discount code at checkout: SHARE50
A black Friday campaign that will go out to all email subscribers with the promo code BLACKFRIDAY will offer 70% off. Added a timer to the website with a countdown to the end of the Friday to add urgency, with another email reminder going out tomorrow. Will update how the campaign goes.
As our AI headshot generator version 1 is now live I am looking for test users and feedback. Also offering a free photoshoot to test users. Sign up at https://portraitphoto.ai and generate your headshots. Tell us what you think and enjoy your headshots.

Hey Kalle! I just registered but honestly couldn't get through the whole process.
Here are some notes I took:
• Country option is not in alphbetaical order (when registering)
• Two X out options (overlapping) on the alert (when I registered telling me to check my email)
• URL to confirm email is very sketchy lol
• Chatbot seems like an unnecessary feature for an app as simple as this
• 768 x 768 is extremely limiting, most people are not going to go through the trouble of doing that.
• 12 photos with that exact resolution requirement is a lot of work, couldnt get throughIf you could find a way to ingest other ratios/resolutions I think asking the user to upload 12 photos would be easier on them, but as is, way too much work.
Other than my above comments, I liked how simple the rest of the signup and Photoshoot feature was.

Hey Tom,
Thanks a lot for the feedback.- Will check country list registration check alert. So far 95% of people use the 1 click Google sign up. Registration form is rarely used.
- Chatbot mostly for trust only.
- 768x is the minimum resolution. You can upload anything higher as long as it's below 5MB.
- I have tried with 6 photos, but currently 12 photos is insurance, as some people upload very bad quality images, and would be disappointed with results for sure.
Otherwise thanks a lot, and as it says, first 5 images are free.

Hi Kale (@KalleR)
That's an interesting tool. I think you need a bit of marketing. As a marketer, I have some thoughts for you.
1.) I noticed on the tool that, is more talk about professional images, so I think your audience is hanging out on Linkedin. You can frequently post on that platform and build an audience, and ultimately, you will gain customers. Secondly, you can also use X.
2.) I know there are many competitors in your space. So, you can find target keywords, and try to build content for your blog and rank with those keywords, so it becomes easy to get organic traffic.
Happy for your journey!
Sure, these are definitely priorities. I'd just say I'm a tad late on starting my efforts there.
