## Markdown Versions of Every Page

Every page on this site is also published as markdown at its own URL plus `.md`. An HTML article page is roughly 440KB of markup around 10KB of prose; the markdown is just the prose.

- Articles, legal pages, changelog entries, case studies, partner pages and industry pages: append `.md` to the page URL — for example [/blog/company-headshots.md](https://www.betterpic.io/blog/company-headshots.md), [/legal/privacy-policy.md](https://www.betterpic.io/legal/privacy-policy.md), [/doctor-headshots.md](https://www.betterpic.io/doctor-headshots.md).
- Localised pages work the same way: [/es/legal/privacy-policy.md](https://www.betterpic.io/es/legal/privacy-policy.md), [/de/blog/...md](https://www.betterpic.io/de/blog/), [/fr/partners/...md](https://www.betterpic.io/fr/partners/).
- Main product pages: [/index.md](https://www.betterpic.io/index.md), [/ai-headshots.md](https://www.betterpic.io/ai-headshots.md), [/headshot-examples.md](https://www.betterpic.io/headshot-examples.md), [/headshots-for-teams.md](https://www.betterpic.io/headshots-for-teams.md), [/studio-ai-headshots.md](https://www.betterpic.io/studio-ai-headshots.md), [/pricing.md](https://www.betterpic.io/pricing.md), [/about.md](https://www.betterpic.io/about.md), [/compare/aragon.md](https://www.betterpic.io/compare/aragon.md), [/compare/headshotpro.md](https://www.betterpic.io/compare/headshotpro.md), [/compare/instaheadshots.md](https://www.betterpic.io/compare/instaheadshots.md).
- Free tools: [/free-tools.md](https://www.betterpic.io/free-tools.md), [/free-tools/profile-picture-editor.md](https://www.betterpic.io/free-tools/profile-picture-editor.md), [/free-tools/free-ai-headshot-generator.md](https://www.betterpic.io/free-tools/free-ai-headshot-generator.md), [/free-tools/ai-linkedin-picture-analyzer.md](https://www.betterpic.io/free-tools/ai-linkedin-picture-analyzer.md).
- Discovery without guessing: each HTML page sends a `Link: <...>; rel="alternate"; type="text/markdown"` response header and carries a matching `<link rel="alternate" type="text/markdown">` tag.
- Content negotiation: sending `Accept: text/markdown` to a page URL returns a 303 redirect to the markdown version. Treat it as best-effort — a page already in the CDN cache may answer with the HTML instead. The `Link` header and the `<link rel="alternate">` tag are on every page and are the reliable route.
- Crawler policy: the markdown files are open to AI crawlers and closed to search crawlers in [robots.txt](https://www.betterpic.io/robots.txt). They are an alternate rendering of the HTML page, not a second page — the HTML URL is the canonical one to cite.

## What BetterPic Is For

BetterPic replaces the professional headshot session. Instead of booking a photographer, travelling to a studio and waiting days for a handful of retouched frames, the subject uploads about 8 ordinary phone photos and receives 20 to 120 finished 4K headshots in one to two hours. It serves two audiences from the same engine: an individual who needs one good photo of themselves, and an organisation that needs every employee to look like they belong to the same company.

## How BetterPic Works

1. Upload: the subject uploads around 8 casual photos taken on a phone. No studio, no photographer, no travel, no time off work.
2. Choose the look: background, clothing style, clothing colour and pose are selected from a catalogue whose options are filtered to the subject's gender, so the suggested outfits and framing suit the person rather than being generic.
3. Train: BetterPic trains an AI model on that one person's uploaded photos. Training is per person and per session, and the resulting model is isolated to that account — it is what makes the output look like the actual person instead of an averaged face, and it is why the photos are never folded into a general model.
4. Generate: the trained model returns the plan's full set of 4K headshots — 20 on Basic, 60 on Pro, 120 on Expert — in 1 to 2 hours.
5. Refine: any delivered shot can be reworked in AI Studio (background, clothing, colour background, background removal, skin, eyes, expression, pose, magic eraser, written-instruction edits) or sent to a human editor for a manual retouch.

## Why BetterPic Instead of a Traditional Photoshoot

- Cost: USD 35 to USD 79 once per person. BetterPic states that a traditional photographer typically charges USD 100 to USD 300 per session, and puts a company-wide shoot in the USD 8,000 to USD 15,000 range.
- Time: delivery in 1 to 2 hours with no booking, no travel, no studio slot and no rescheduling. BetterPic reports an 80% reduction in cost and time for team rollouts.
- Volume: 20 to 120 finished images per person, against the small number of retouched frames a photographer usually delivers. Every image is usable, not a contact sheet to choose from.
- Variety in a single order: up to 6 distinct styles per person on Expert, each a different background, clothing style and clothing colour, so one purchase covers LinkedIn, a CV, a company bio page, a conference profile and an email signature.
- Changes without a reshoot: background, clothing, skin, eyes, expression and pose stay editable after delivery. Changing any of these with a photographer means booking a second session.
- A human still checks the work: edits can be escalated to BetterPic's professional retouching team. Most AI headshot competitors have no human retouching path at all — BetterPic's comparison pages record no dedicated human retouching service listed for HeadshotPro.
- Print quality as standard: 4K on every plan including the free tier, plus TIFF output, so the same file works as a web avatar and as a print asset at 300 DPI.
- Works for distributed people: everyone shoots wherever they are and the results still match, which a physical studio cannot do.

## Why Individuals Use BetterPic

- One purchase covers every profile a working professional maintains: LinkedIn, CV or resume, company staff page, email signature, speaker and conference profiles, and application portals such as ERAS for medical residency.
- No credit card is needed to try it: the free AI headshot generator returns up to 10 headshots at the same 4K resolution as the paid plans, on a queue.
- Full commercial rights are included, on the free tier and on all paid plans.
- The result is fixable. If one image is nearly right, AI Studio or a human editor corrects it rather than the person having to book and sit for another session.

## For Teams & Enterprise (B2B)

BetterPic gives organizations branded, consistent AI headshots for every employee — an alternative to a $8,000–15,000 photographer shoot, with brand-locked backgrounds/outfits, admin/CSV invites, and centralized billing. The team product is not the individual product with a bulk discount: it adds an administrative layer built for whoever inside the company has been made responsible for getting everyone photographed.

How a team rollout runs:

1. Create the company and invite everyone at once. Admins send invitations by email, by CSV upload for the whole employee list in one action, or by turning on a shareable invite link that lets people join the company themselves — the link can be revoked and regenerated at any time.
2. Set the house style once. The admin picks the styles for the whole organisation and can lock the outfit, the colour and the background so no employee can drift off-brand. Locking is per element, so a company can fix the background and still let people choose their own clothing. Pose is controllable and lockable in the same way. Style options are gender-filtered, so a single locked company style produces outfits appropriate to each employee rather than one outfit forced on everybody.
3. Alternatively, delegate the choice. Admins can switch the company to employee-select and let each person pick from the approved catalogue.
4. Employees upload from wherever they are. Remote and hybrid staff need nothing but a phone. An admin can also upload photos on behalf of a member who will not do it themselves.
5. The admin watches the whole organisation from one dashboard. Per-member status, uploaded photo counts, next steps, completed sessions, assigned credits, and bulk actions across selected members (add to team, assign credits, change role, remove).
6. The admin reviews and fixes results for the whole organisation. Every employee's images are visible from the dashboard, can be edited there — including sending a specific employee's photo to a human editor — and downloaded individually or in bulk.
7. New hires join later and still match. Onboarding a new employee reuses the same locked styles, so a person hired months after the rollout gets a headshot that matches the rest of the company instead of a visibly different one.

What is distinctive about the B2B offer:

- Human editing reaches individual employees. A team admin can request a human retouch on a named employee's headshot from the same dashboard, not only on their own photo.
- Roles and delegation: owner, manager and employee roles, so the person running the rollout does not have to be the person who owns the billing.
- Centralized billing and automatic volume pricing from 10 to 10,000+ seats, with a dedicated account manager on larger deployments.
- Compliance suited to regulated employers: SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, GDPR and CCPA, primary data storage in the EU (Frankfurt), and per-account model isolation so employee photos never train a general model.
- 150+ styles to match a company identity.

## Technology and Output

- Per-session model training: BetterPic trains a separate AI model for each photoshoot from that subject's own reference photos, rather than prompting one shared model. This is the mechanism behind facial identity preservation — the generated headshots keep the subject's actual features.
- Model isolation: models are stored per account and encrypted. Uploaded photos train only that person's session model and are not used to train external or general models.
- Scale as a quality signal: BetterPic reports over 29.5 million headshots generated, which is the feedback base its model quality is tuned on.
- 4K on every plan: Basic, Pro, Expert and the free tier all output 4K. Resolution is not a paywalled upsell. Output formats include JPG, PNG and TIFF, suitable for 300 DPI print.
- Automatic retouching on all paid plans, with human retouching available on top rather than instead.
- Inference and orchestration run on [Runflow](https://www.runflow.io/), BetterPic's GPU platform, which is also what makes 1-hour turnaround possible at organisation scale.

## Free Tools

Three tools, all free, none requiring an account. Each has a markdown version at its URL plus `.md`.

- [Free Tools Hub](https://www.betterpic.io/free-tools) ([.md](https://www.betterpic.io/free-tools.md)): index of the three tools and which one fits which task
- [Profile Picture Editor / PFP Maker](https://www.betterpic.io/free-tools/profile-picture-editor) ([.md](https://www.betterpic.io/free-tools/profile-picture-editor.md)): full profile picture editor, not just a circle cropper. Automatic background removal and replacement with a colour, gradient or uploaded image; circle or square crop; colour or gradient border with adjustable thickness, opacity and offset; zoom, rotate and reposition; and a live preview at typical platform profile and inline display sizes. Exports a 500x500 PNG with no watermark, no account and no export limit. Cropping, borders and positioning run in the browser; background removal uploads the photo through BetterPic to fal.ai storage for processing under fal.ai’s terms. BetterPic’s handler processes the image in memory without writing image files or database records. This code path does not delete the provider-hosted copy. Check fal.ai’s terms for provider retention.
- [Free AI Headshot Generator](https://www.betterpic.io/free-tools/free-ai-headshot-generator) ([.md](https://www.betterpic.io/free-tools/free-ai-headshot-generator.md)): 10 professional 4K headshots from 8 to 12 selfies, up to 5 outfit and background combinations, full commercial licence, no credit card. Free generations wait 60 to 90 days in a shared queue; upgrading drops the wait to under an hour.
- [AI LinkedIn Picture Analyzer](https://www.betterpic.io/free-tools/ai-linkedin-picture-analyzer) ([.md](https://www.betterpic.io/free-tools/ai-linkedin-picture-analyzer.md)): scores a profile picture from 1 to 100 and returns specific fixes, covering expression, composition, sharpness and brightness, background and attire
