Try FaceShot FreeThe Verdict
Aragon AI offers decent quality and large batches (40 to 100 headshots) from a few uploads, with a stated generation time of 15 to 45 minutes. FaceShot works from a single selfie and returns each headshot in about 60 seconds, with free credits to try first. If you already have several good photos and want one big batch with every attire and background, Aragon AI is a reasonable choice.
Detailed Comparison
Input Requirements
One selfie or webcam snap. That is it.
Asks for "a few uploads" (selfies work), per its homepage (October 2026).
Processing Time
Under 60 seconds from upload to download.
Stated generation time of 15 to 45 minutes per batch, depending on the package.
Pricing
4 free credits at signup. Credit packs from €6 for 10 headshots; plans from €9.99/month.

Post-Processing
Built-in AI editor for adjusting lighting, backgrounds, and styling.
Limited editing options. Mostly download-and-go.
Likeness From Multiple Photos
Works from one photo, so the result depends heavily on that single selfie: good light, a clear face and a neutral angle matter.
Uses several photos from different angles and lighting conditions, which gives it more reference material for your likeness.
Support & Data Handling
Email support on every plan. Data hosted in the EU under the GDPR; photos are processed by Google Gemini, and transfers to subprocessors outside the EEA rely on Standard Contractual Clauses. Uploaded selfies auto-deleted within 30 days, payments handled by Stripe.

Who each one is best for
No tool is right for everyone. Here is an honest split.
FaceShot is best for
- Anyone who needs a LinkedIn or CV headshot today without booking a €200 photographer
- People who only have one decent selfie, or can take one with their webcam
- Small teams that want a consistent look without scheduling a photo day
- Trying before paying: new accounts get 4 free credits, no card needed
FaceShot is not the best fit for
- People who want the model to learn from a large set of photos of themselves
- Buyers who need SSO or an API: FaceShot has no SSO or public API
- Anyone who wants a human photographer to direct the shoot and retouch by hand
Aragon AI is best for
- People who already have several good photos and want 40 to 100 headshots in one order
- Buyers who prefer paying per batch instead of a monthly plan
- Teams that want a mobile-friendly multi-photo workflow
Where Aragon AI is stronger
You have several good photos ready
Aragon AI learns from several photos. If you already have them, the extra reference material can help with likeness.
You prefer paying per batch
Aragon AI charges per batch. FaceShot also sells one-time credit packs, but its plans are monthly subscriptions.
Waiting is not a problem
If you do not need a headshot today, a batch that takes longer to process may be perfectly fine for you.
FaceShot limitations
One photo in, so the photo matters
FaceShot works from a single selfie. A blurry, dark or heavily angled photo gives weaker results than a clear, front-facing one.
Plan credits do not roll over
Plans are billed monthly (Starter €9.99, Pro €29.99, Business €79.99, Team €129.99) or yearly at 10 times the monthly price. Plan credits are added every month and unused plan credits do not roll over. One-time credit packs never expire.
No SSO, API or integrations
FaceShot is a self-serve app. It does not offer single sign-on, a public API or integrations with HR tools.
Image storage depends on your plan
On a free account, generated headshots are deleted after 30 days. Headshots you generate on a paid plan are kept. Uploaded selfies are deleted within 30 days on every plan.
