Revised review: With the privacy concerns out of the way, i upgrade my review to 5 stars.

I can state that i am quite happy with what the tool has to offer. I fed it with a dozen random snapshots of myself that were mostly not so great and trained a private model with this sub-par material.

But even so: The resulting images I got were impressive. Not all of them, granted. But around 30% were extremely credible and looked like real headshots of myself. The others were not quite there yet, looked a bit like siblings but not exactly like me. But for me this is perfectly acceptable. I can easily create 10 versions of an image and will always find 3 or 4 that are suitable for my usage.

Prompts were followed very well. I live in Switzerland and asked the tool to create shots with a Swiss city scene in the background visible through a window. This worked very well and makes the shots feel local and believable.

I have a midjourney, and a chatgpt plus subscription and run some image models locally on my computer. None of these tools could produce images like this. This having been said, I do use midjourney sometimes for editing the results from this tool. I distinctively like the upscaling of this tool better than midjouney's. While midjourney delivers even better resolutions, the upscaled images often look artificial because skin and hair are just to perfect to be true. And i have never ever succeded in consistently getting believable headshots out of the other tools i use.

Cudos to the makers of this tool and thank you for you prompt reaction to my privacy concerns.

there is one limitation that i think should be removed from the deal: I I understand this right, tier 1 and 2 can only produce square images. In my oppinion, that is an unecessary restriction because it should not affect the resource cost. Since i bought level 3, this limitation does not apply to me but i think it would be kind to remove it from the lower tiers as well.

For completeness sake: Here is my original review text.

I still have to see what the product can do. But I feel offended by your privacy policy. I will likely refund the tier 3 deal for this reason. I simply don't want to use paid software that uses my interaction for collecting behavioral data that is sold to or used by advertisers.

Sorry to start of the review section with this but this is severe for me.
