Field notes

The workflow begins with 10–20 ordinary phone photos, which the site says become a private model before the user selects a themed shoot. Packs supply the scene, lighting, wardrobe, poses, and prompts, including Corporate Cat, Royal Court, Jazz Club, and Moon Shift. The Starter plan is listed at $19 per month for 50 credits, while new models are described as receiving 48 free photos. Actual generation is account-gated.
