Remini surpasses Instagram

Threads A TikTok user named @Gracesplace posted a video demonstrating the feature, which quickly went viral and gained 42.9 million views. The demand for the app increased as more people attempted to replicate this experience, which caused it to overtake Instagram Threads on 11 July, 2023 and take the No. 1 spot on the US App Store.

Remini has over 80 million downloads, and there are currently over 20 million daily active users. The app has also climbed to the top of India's ‘free in photography’ category.

Currently, the app is available in multiple languages, including English, Hindi, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Russian, Simplified and Traditional Chinese, Spanish, and Thai. Also, the app is available for free, but for unlimited access to premium features, users can subscribe to Remini on a weekly, monthly, or yearly basis.

How to create AI headshots?

To create the AI headshots, users need to initially select eight to twelve images of themselves, which should include close-up selfies with various backgrounds, expressions, and face angles. They also choose their gender to help the AI construct the headshots accurately. Users then select a model photo that illustrates the overall look and composition they desire for the generated images.

The app offers several possibilities under the ‘curriculum’ category for creating professional images, along with options for trendy, travel, casual, and even a category labelled ‘Korean aesthetic,’ among other styles.

This wide range of choices allows users to create headshots that suit their preferences and desired aesthetic. The headshots are generated in a matter of minutes once the AI has processed the chosen photographs.

After seeing the results, users can swipe left or right, much like how Tinder users can like or dislike potential matches.

As the trend of developing AI tools gains momentum, numerous companies have introduced their own AI-powered applications for various purposes, including editing, resume building, video editing, and more. Joining the competition, Remini has now incorporated this AI feature, providing its users with an enhanced AI experience.
