Your selfie shapes the result. Six things to get right before you upload.
Face a window or stand near soft, even light. Avoid harsh overhead lights that cast shadows under your eyes or chin.
Plain wall, no clutter. The AI replaces the background — but a clean one helps it understand where you end and the room begins.
Wear what you'd wear to a meeting. Solid colors photograph better than busy patterns. The neckline you upload shapes what the AI generates.
A neutral or slight smile reads better than a wide grin or a flat stare. Aim for the expression you'd want in a recruiter's first impression.
Front-facing, head and shoulders in frame, eyes on the lens.
Corporate? Stick to muted backgrounds and a collared shirt. Creative role? You can push styling a bit further. The free presets cover both ends.
A free AI headshot generator is an online tool that turns a regular selfie into a professional-looking headshot using artificial intelligence — at no cost. You upload a photo of yourself, the AI generates headshots in different outfits and backgrounds, and you download the ones you want for LinkedIn, your CV, your email signature, or social media.
It's the same idea as our full AI headshot generator — same AI model, same quality — gated to one free HD download so you can try it before you buy.
HeadshotPro's free AI headshot generator works a little differently from most. Upload one selfie and our AI generates multiple different headshots in different outfits and styles — so you can see what you'd actually look like across a range of professional looks before paying anything. You get one in HD (1024×1024) for free to download and use immediately. The rest stay as previews so you can see the full range. If you decide to unlock them, you also get access to thousands of backdrops, outfits, poses, and creative controls — and the photos you've already generated come with you. No sign-up. No credit card. No commitment.
HDWe built the free generator with the same data practices as our paid product.
Every photo you upload is deleted from our servers within 24 hours.
We never use your selfies or generated headshots to train AI models.
Your photos are never sold, shared, or licensed to third parties.
The free tool runs without a sign-up. We don't link your photos to a profile because there isn't one.

My first order was excellent, which is why I came back. Although my second experience wasn’t perfect, the team handled my concerns professionally and made things right. I appreciate their commitment to customer satisfaction and would happily use their service again.

Easiest user experience and love the end product. Worth every penny and saves me a trip from going to an actual photographer.

Headshots were quick. It really is dependent on your selfie uploads. More than 75% of mine weren't right on the first try, but on the redo, I picked better selfies and got exactly what I needed. HR was super happy I was able to provide a professional headshot quickly!

The AI got much better since I last used it and is now very much capable of generating nose piercings accurately. Very few "missings" or bad pictures. Atleast 50% of the pictures were usable, if not even more.

Quick answers to what professionals ask before uploading a photo.
A free AI headshot generator is an online tool that turns a regular selfie into a professional-looking headshot using artificial intelligence, at no cost. HeadshotPro's free version generates a polished headshot you can use on LinkedIn, your CV, Slack, your email signature, and other professional surfaces — without a sign-up or credit card.
Yes. You upload one selfie, our AI generates a set of headshots in different styles, and you download one in full quality at no cost — no trial, no credit card, no hidden fee. The rest stay as previews until you choose to unlock them.
One HD headshot (1024×1024) you can download, save, and use anywhere — LinkedIn, your CV, business cards, anywhere a professional photo goes. The AI picks its top result from the set it generates and gives you that one in full HD. The rest are shown as lower-resolution previews so you can see the full range of styles. To unlock them all in HD — plus 40 more credits to generate any style, outfit, pose, or scene you want — the paid version is $29 (first-view offer) or $39 default.
No. The free AI headshot generator doesn't ask for a credit card or any payment information. You upload a selfie, the AI generates a range of styles, and you download your free one.
No. There's no account, no email collection, no sign-up wall. The tool runs in your browser — upload and go.
Just one selfie. The AI uses your single photo to generate a range of different headshots — different outfits, different backgrounds, different lighting.
Anywhere you'd use a professional photo of yourself. The most common uses are LinkedIn profile photos, CV / resume headshots, email signatures, Slack avatars, business cards, and social media profiles (Twitter, Instagram, Facebook).
The free trial generates a set of headshots in different styles from one selfie. You keep 1 in HD (1024×1024) for free; the rest stay as lower-quality previews so you can see what's possible. The paid version ($29+) unlocks all of your previews in HD and gives you 40 more credits — letting you generate dozens more HD headshots across thousands of backdrops and outfits, with multiple poses, full creative control over outfits, backdrops, and emotion, plus premium resolution and landscape formats. Everything you generated in the trial comes with you when you unlock — you don't start over. Backed by a 100% money-back guarantee.
Yes. The AI preserves glasses, including thin metal frames, thicker plastic frames, and reading glasses. If you wear glasses in your daily life, upload a selfie with them on.
Yes. The model is trained on a diverse dataset and produces accurate, natural-looking results across all skin tones.
Yes. Upload a selfie wearing whatever you'd wear in a professional setting. The AI preserves headcoverings as part of your portrait.
Our AI headshots are designed to look like a polished, real-world studio portrait — and most people can't tell. The free trial uses the same AI model as our paid product, so the headshots you see are representative of what we deliver to paying customers. The paid version unlocks far more styles, outfits, backdrops, and creative control — but the underlying realism is the same.
You do. Headshots you generate with HeadshotPro — free or paid — are yours to use however you like.
Uploaded photos are stored only for as long as needed to generate your headshots, then automatically deleted from our servers within 24 hours. We don't share your photos with third parties. We don't use your uploads to train AI models.
The unlock is $29 (first-view discount) or $39 default — significantly less than a traditional photographer ($150–$300). It unlocks all of the headshots you've already previewed in HD, adds 40 photo credits to your account so you can generate dozens more headshots, gives you access to thousands of backdrops and outfits, multiple poses, full creative control, and premium resolution + landscape formats. Backed by a 100% money-back guarantee.
When you're ready, unlock all of your previews in HD plus 40 more credits — thousands of backdrops, outfits, poses, and full creative control. Everything you've generated comes with you.
