Halo is an AI headshot generator for iPhone and Android. Upload a selfie, prompt the look you want, get a clean headshot back in seconds.
No studio session. No scheduling. No waiting days for proofs. You take a selfie, tell Halo what kind of headshot you want, and it generates it. Do it again until the result works.
What is an AI headshot generator?
An AI headshot generator takes a selfie or portrait photo and uses AI to produce a clean, polished headshot — for a LinkedIn profile, resume, speaker bio, or dating app photo. The tools in this category split roughly three ways:
- Subscription services (HeadshotPro, Aragon) — upload several selfies, wait for a batch of AI headshots back. Higher price, more polish.
- Browser tools with headshot features (Canva) — fast, free-tier friendly, less specialized.
- Mobile AI photo editors (Halo) — run it on your phone, iterate in real time, use the same app for other photo jobs.
Halo is the third kind. Fastest iteration. Works in the app you already have open.

Common jobs behind this query
When to use Halo
Use Halo if...
- ✓You need a headshot fast and don't want to book a session
- ✓You want to iterate on the result, not pay for a batch and hope
- ✓You edit photos on your phone
- ✓You also want to try outfit changes, room edits, or other photo jobs in the same app
Pick something else if...
- ✗You want a dedicated subscription-for-business-headshots flow — use HeadshotPro or Aragon
- ✗You need studio-grade, print-resolution headshots — book a real photographer
- ✗You work entirely in Canva — Canva has a built-in AI headshot feature
How Halo compares to HeadshotPro and Aragon
| Halo | HeadshotPro and Aragon | |
|---|---|---|
| Iteration speed | Gives you something back immediately. Iterate in one sitting. | Batch services are slower by design. |
| Control | Takes a plain-language prompt each run. | Picks for you based on training photos. |
| Scope | Handles outfit changes, room edits, and product photos in the same app. | Headshots only. |
Halo's specific wedge here is real-time iteration with prompt control. If you want to see the result quickly and tweak it, Halo. If you want to upload selfies, walk away, and come back to a curated batch, the subscription services.
What a good source selfie looks like
You don't need studio conditions. You do need a selfie that's:
- Clear. Not blurry. Phone-quality is fine.
- Well-lit. Natural light beats overhead lighting. Window light works great.
- Face front. Looking roughly at the camera. Slight angles are okay.
- Background simple. Whatever's behind you can be replaced — but a plain wall starts you in a better place than a busy bedroom.
- One person. Not a group photo cropped to your face.
If your starting selfie is rough, Halo's output will be rough too. Spend an extra moment on a clean source photo and the result will look much better.
