Reshot AI

What is Reshot AI?

Reshot AI is a browser-based AI face editor that changes the expression, gaze and head angle of a person in an existing photo. Instead of booking a reshoot, you upload a portrait and adjust a smile, raise an eyebrow, open or close the eyes, or turn the head with sliders. The official site says edits run in real time, supports photos up to 4K and claims more than 3.9 million photos edited.

The product is made by Alex Carlier, and a launch press release from October 2024 placed the company in Paris, France. There’s An AI For That lists a launch date of 20 September 2024. Besides the main editor, Reshot AI offers a free AI Eyes Editor that needs no account, a Face Expressions API for developers and a listing on Microsoft AppSource under the publisher name Carlier Alexandre. The website, pricing page and API page were all live when we checked in October 2026. Note that Reshot AI is not related to Reshot.com, a separate site that offers free stock icons and photos.

Key Features

• Precision eye editor: Reshot AI adjusts eyebrows, gaze direction and eyelid opening, and can add a wink to a portrait. This fixes the common problem of a subject looking away or blinking in an otherwise good photo, without a reshoot.
• Expression sculptor: Reshot AI changes smiles and mouth shapes with slider controls rather than prompts. You can turn a neutral face into a soft smile for a headshot, or exaggerate a reaction for a YouTube thumbnail.
• 3D pose manipulator: Reshot AI rotates and tilts the head in a still image to change where the subject faces. The company describes it as 3D head pose control, which helps match a portrait to a layout or to other photos in a set.
• Real-time editing: Reshot AI previews edits as you move each slider, and the site says several versions are generated in under 30 seconds. Fast feedback lets you test small changes before you commit to a final image.
• 4K photo support: Reshot AI accepts portraits at up to 4K resolution, according to the official homepage. High-resolution support matters for professional headshots and print, where lower-resolution output would show artefacts.
• Free AI Eyes Editor: Reshot AI provides a free eyes tool that changes gaze, opens or closes eyes and adds blinks without sign-up. It runs on slower machines than the paid editor, so it works best as a trial of output quality.
• Face Expressions API: Reshot AI offers a Face Expressions API that adjusts expressions in images through parameters, sold through a credit system. A Normals Estimation API was listed as coming soon when we checked, so only expression editing is available to developers.
• Commercial ownership: Reshot AI gives users full commercial rights and ownership of the photos they edit. Freelancers and agencies can therefore use edited headshots and thumbnails in client work without separate licensing.

Pros

• Fixes photos without a reshoot: Reshot AI corrects closed eyes, stray glances and flat expressions on a photo you already have. That saves the time and cost of rebooking a photographer or model for one small change.
• Precise slider control: Reshot AI uses sliders for each facial feature instead of text prompts. You get repeatable, fine adjustments, which is easier to manage than regenerating a whole image and hoping the face stays the same.
• Free tool for testing: Reshot AI lets anyone try the AI Eyes Editor at no cost and without an account. You can judge the quality of its face edits on your own photo before you pay for a subscription.
• Unlimited editing on paid plans: Reshot AI advertises unlimited photos and unlimited AI edits on both paid plans. Creators who make many thumbnails each week pay a flat fee instead of watching per-image credits.
• Low yearly price: Reshot AI costs $99 a year on the annual plan, which works out at about $9 a month. That is less than half the monthly rate, so regular users save money by committing for a year.

Cons

• No free trial of the full editor: Reshot AI does not mention a free trial of the main editor on its pricing page. Several reviewers on There’s An AI For That complained that they had to pay before testing it properly.
• Mixed user ratings: Reshot AI held 3.6 out of 5 from 13 reviews on There’s An AI For That, including three one-star ratings. Results seem to vary by photo, so test on your own images before relying on it for client work.
• Conflicting edit limits: Reshot AI advertises unlimited edits, but There’s An AI For That and Neura Market report a cap of 250 edits a month. Heavy users should confirm the current allowance with the company before buying.
• Narrow feature set: Reshot AI focuses on faces, so it does not replace a general photo editor. AI relighting and background removal were still described as coming soon on one directory, and Neura Market notes limited customisation.
• Confusing App Store listing: Reshot AI shares its name with an iOS app sold by a different developer, MD Shaha Jalal, at different prices. We could not confirm a link between the two, so buyers may pay for the wrong product.

Who is Using Reshot AI?

• YouTubers: Creating expressive faces for video thumbnails.
• Professionals: Fixing gaze and smiles in LinkedIn and company headshots.
• Photographers and retouchers: Rescuing shots with blinks or awkward expressions.
• Digital artists and developers: Adjusting AI art faces or using the expressions API.

Pricing

Reshot AI costs $19 a month or $99 a year for unlimited editing, and its AI Eyes Editor is free to use (official prices, October 2026).

Two directories, There’s An AI For That and Neura Market, report a limit of 250 edits a month on both plans, which conflicts with the unlimited wording on the official site. An iOS app called Expression Editor – Reshot AI, sold by a different developer, lists its own in-app prices from $6.99 to $98.99 and is not covered by these plans. Offers labelled limited-time can end at short notice, so check reshot.ai for the current rate before you subscribe.

What Makes Reshot AI Unique?

Reshot AI edits the face that is already in your photo rather than generating a new person, so identity, clothing and background stay as they were. Separate sliders for eyes, eyebrows, mouth and 3D head pose give a level of control that prompt-based image generators rarely offer. The free eyes editor, a developer API and a flat-fee plan for unlimited editing also make it practical for both one-off fixes and regular thumbnail production. Few rivals focus this narrowly on expression and gaze correction in still portraits.

Compatibilities and Integrations

• Platform: Web app in a desktop or mobile browser at reshot.ai.
• API: Face Expressions API with credit-based access for developers.
• Marketplace: Listed on Microsoft AppSource as a web app by Carlier Alexandre.
• Files: Accepts portraits up to 4K and exports the edited image for download.

Reshot AI Tutorials

Editing a portrait in Reshot AI follows five steps, and the free eyes tool lets you rehearse the first three.

1. Open reshot.ai and try the free AI Eyes Editor, or subscribe for the full editor.
2. Upload a clear, front-facing portrait, ideally in high resolution.
3. Use the eye, eyebrow and mouth sliders to adjust the expression.
4. Rotate or tilt the head with the 3D pose controls until the angle suits your layout.
5. Compare the generated versions, then download the one that looks most natural.

How We Rated It

Summary

Reshot AI suits YouTubers, professionals and photographers who need to fix or change an expression in a portrait they already have. Its slider controls for eyes, mouth and head pose are precise and quick, and the yearly plan is good value for regular use. The main limitation is the lack of a free trial of the full editor, together with mixed user reviews and unclear edit limits. Run one of your own photos through the free AI Eyes Editor first, and buy only from reshot.ai to avoid the similarly named App Store app.
