How many photos do I need to upload?

Upload a few clear selfies or casual portraits. Multiple angles and expressions help the AI generate 32+ LinkedIn-ready options that still look like you. If you only have one or two strong photos, you can still get started, but a slightly broader mix usually produces more natural results.

What kind of selfies work best?

A clear selfie works well. Try to use photos with: • Even lighting from a window or bright room • Simple backgrounds without clutter • Head-and-shoulders framing • Natural expressions that look like the real you Avoid sunglasses, heavy filters, and group photos. The better your source images, the stronger your LinkedIn headshot options.

Will my LinkedIn headshot look natural?

Yes. Our goal is to keep your face recognizable while improving lighting, background, crop, and outfit details so the final image looks like a polished version of you.
