Key features
  • Three gradient styles: blobs, stripes, and clouds
  • Real grain rendering at export resolution
  • Pixel and dither finishes
  • 4K JPEG export with no watermark
  • Color, blur, contrast and saturation controls
  • Palette saving and reuse
  • MCP server integration for coding agents
  • Free and unmetered previews in MCP clients
  • Commercial use on all plans
  • Figma integration via export and background image
  • Guided crop with head-position guides
  • Background neutrality check
  • Custom ratio from 1:1 to 9:9 printed at 20–51 mm wide
  • 4×6 print sheet at 300 dpi with cutting guides
  • All processing in-browser with no upload
  • Head size checking with 70–80% range for ID cards, 55–75% for badges, 45–65% for professional headshots
What makes it different
  • Grain is rendered into the image at full resolution, not pasted on top, so it survives JPEG compression, scaling and print
  • Preview matches the 4K export exactly; what you tune on a laptop is what lands on the monitor
  • Pay once, never auto-renews; no subscription required
  • Free tier is genuinely useful with 5 full-resolution 4K exports monthly
  • Distinguishes between official standards and conventions, marking which formats are real standards versus employer or school conventions
  • Private by design—photos processed entirely in browser, never uploaded to servers
  • Honest about technical limits—measures what software can measure, not expression, shadows or issuer house rules
