Aestia, the browser-based retro portrait booth

Field notes

The workflow separates visual treatment from identity preservation: users choose a named look, add their own direction if desired, and set how strongly to hold the face. The homepage lists 20 looks, including '80s Bollywood, '90s Denim Street, and '80s Music Magazine. It also distinguishes ordinary cloud renders from a stated WebGPU local engine that downloads in the background; the page notes that on-device results may not preserve likeness as reliably.
