The credits for this run are shown before you start; confirm, then pick and save from the results

Which photos suit it

Portraits have been tested with real runs on light, medium and dark skin tones and on a person wearing a headscarf; skin tone and the headscarf were kept. Pets (a corgi) and scenery (a lake) have been tested with real runs too.

Portraits use the Premium tier only; pets and scenery use Standard.

Known limits

Eyes are drawn a little larger, as cartoon characters usually are.

So that no jewellery is invented, very small jewellery in the photo, such as tiny earrings, may be left out.

In scenery, trees become rounded cartoon trees and the sky can turn pinkish.

FAQ

How is it priced?: Each run uses credits and produces 2 images to choose from; see the pricing page for the exact amount. Credits are returned if the run fails.
What is the difference between the Standard and Premium tiers?: In this style portraits use the Premium tier only (the Standard tier tends to draw medium-to-dark skin lighter), while pets and scenery use Standard. Premium costs more, and the credits for it are shown as soon as you choose a portrait.
Is the result a real photo?: No. The “3D Animated Cartoon” result is generated by AI, and the page and the result are labelled “AI-generated”.
Will headscarves or similar coverings be changed?: For portraits the request is to keep headscarves, veils and similar coverings covering the same area: not removed, no hair shown, and no religious items added that the photo does not have. AI output cannot be guaranteed 100%; if you are not happy, generate again.
Is my photo uploaded?: Style transfer is done by AI on a server, so the photo is uploaded. The free basic tools such as crop and resize run locally in your browser.
