Free AI Headshot Generator for a Professional Portrait

Frame a selfie into a headshot in this browser tab: choose the crop, the zoom and the export size, then download a sharp PNG without an account. When you want new lighting or a studio backdrop, pick an AI headshot preset and run it in the studio below.

Framing and export are free, on this device and off the record. The AI step uploads the photo you choose and uses your account credits.

Generate a headshot look with AI

Pick a preset, upload the same portrait in the studio, and review the model quote before you start. Each preset asks the model to keep your face while it changes attire, lighting and backdrop.

How to make a headshot

  1. Add a portrait

    Choose one PNG, JPEG or WebP photo where the face is sharp and unobstructed. The tool reads it in this tab.

  2. Frame head and shoulders

    Pick 1:1 or 4:5, then zoom and pan until the eyes sit near the upper third and the head fills the dashed guide.

  3. Download or run an AI look

    Download the framed PNG straight away, or pick a preset in the studio below to change attire, lighting and backdrop with AI.

Framing decides whether it reads as a headshot

A headshot is a crop decision: eyes near the upper third, a little headroom, and shoulders that reach the bottom edge. 1:1 fits profile avatars and 4:5 fits portrait posts. Both export at 400, 800 or 1200 pixels wide, so one crop works for a profile and for a slide.

Free framing that never leaves the device

The crop, the look and the PNG export are computed in this tab from the decoded photo; nothing is uploaded and no account is needed. Only the AI step sends an image, and only the one you submit there. If the original has a busy background, remove background and then change image background give an exact cutout and backdrop without redrawing the face.

Questions

Is this AI headshot generator free?

The framing tool is free: it crops, applies a look and exports a PNG in your browser with no sign-in and no credits. The AI look is an optional step that uses the quote shown in the studio, and failed or cancelled tasks release their reserved credits.

Will the AI keep my face?

Every preset instructs the model to keep your face, skin tone, hair and expression, but AI editing can still change likeness. Compare the result with the original before you use it.

What size should a LinkedIn headshot be?

A 400-pixel square is enough for LinkedIn. Choose 800 pixels when the same file also appears on high-density screens or in messages, and 4:5 only for portrait posts.

Which photo works best?

One person facing the camera, evenly lit, with a sharp and unobstructed face. Sunglasses, heavy shadows and group photos make both the crop and the AI result worse.

Is my photo uploaded?

The crop and the PNG export never leave this device. The AI step uploads the photo you submit to Artgen and stores the result in your account history.

Can I use the result commercially?

The tool adds no watermark and claims no rights over your photo. Check whether your employer or client allows an AI-edited portrait before you publish it.
