AI Startup Headshot Generator

Generating AI photos of yourself on Banana AI takes a few minutes to set up and under 30 seconds per generation after that.

First, sign up at getbanana.ai and choose a plan. All paid plans give you full access to the generator and all AI models.

Next, upload your reference photos. This is the most important step. Go to the generator and upload 10 to 20 photos of yourself. The more variety in your photos, the better your results will be. Use photos from different days, different lighting conditions, different outfits, and different angles. Include close-up face shots as well as photos where your full face is clearly visible. Avoid photos with sunglasses, hats, heavy shadows, or anything that covers your face.

Once your photos are uploaded, write a prompt describing the image you want. You can describe the style, setting, outfit, lighting, and mood. For example: "professional headshot, business attire, neutral background, studio lighting" or "outdoor lifestyle photo, casual clothing, natural light, smiling." The more specific your prompt, the more accurately Banana AI generates what you have in mind.

Select your model. Nano Banana 2 is the recommended default for most users. If you need maximum realism for professional use, choose Nano Banana Pro.

Click generate and your image is ready in under 30 seconds. If a result is not quite right, regenerate. Each generation is unique, so running the same prompt again produces a different result. Most users generate 3 to 5 variations and pick their favourite.

Your generated images are saved in your account and can be downloaded at full resolution at any time.

Upload high-variety photos: close-up selfies, full-body shots in different locations, different angles, clothing, and expressions. The more variety, the better your results. Avoid group photos, sunglasses, hats, or anything that obscures your face.

Usually around 10–30 seconds depending on the model you choose. Grok is the fastest, Nano Banana Pro takes a little longer but delivers the highest quality.

The likeness of your AI-generated photos depends on two factors: the quality of your input photos and the model you choose. With good inputs and the right model, your AI photos will closely match your face, skin tone, and features.

The most important factor is your input photos. Banana AI learns your face from the photos you upload. If you upload 10 to 20 varied, high-quality photos with your face clearly visible, the likeness will be very close. If you upload only a few similar photos taken in one setting, the AI has less to work with and the likeness will be weaker.

For best results: upload photos from different days and lighting conditions, include both close-up face shots and wider shots, avoid sunglasses, hats, or anything covering your face, and use photos where your face is well-lit and in focus. The more diverse your input set, the more accurately Banana AI captures your specific features.

The model you choose also affects likeness. Nano Banana 2 delivers strong likeness for most users and is the recommended default. Nano Banana Pro produces the most accurate and detailed likeness, capturing fine facial features more precisely. If likeness is your top priority for a professional headshot or dating profile, Nano Banana Pro is worth the extra credits.

Most Banana AI users report that at Nano Banana 2 quality and above, their results are indistinguishable from real photos to friends, colleagues, and people on dating apps. Many real estate agents and LinkedIn users use their Banana AI headshots as their primary professional photo.

If your first few generations do not look quite like you, try uploading more diverse photos or switching to Nano Banana Pro.

Depending on the quality of your uploaded photos and the type of generation, you may occasionally see minor artifacts. Using Nano Banana 2 or Nano Banana Pro significantly reduces these issues. If a result isn't right, just regenerate each generation is unique.

Banana AI offers four generation models, each designed for different needs in terms of speed, quality, and credit cost. All four models are available on every paid plan.

Grok (15 credits per image) is the fastest model on Banana AI, developed by xAI. It is ideal when you need quick results or want to test a concept before committing to a higher-quality generation. Grok produces solid results and is the most credit-efficient option on the platform.

Nano Banana Standard (20 credits per image) is Banana AI's entry-level proprietary model. It is fast and affordable, well suited for casual use and high-volume generation where speed matters more than maximum realism.

Nano Banana 2 (40 credits per image) is the default model on Banana AI and our most popular choice. It delivers the best balance of quality and speed, producing results that are indistinguishable from professional photography in most use cases. Nano Banana 2 is the recommended model for headshots, profile photos, dating app photos, and most creative work.

Nano Banana Pro (70 credits per image) is the highest quality model on the platform. It takes slightly longer to generate but produces maximum realism, fine facial detail, and the most accurate likeness to your input photos. Nano Banana Pro is recommended for professional headshots where you need the absolute best result, such as LinkedIn photos, real estate listings, or commercial use.

You can switch between models freely on any generation. The model selector is always visible in the Banana AI generator. If you are unsure which model to use, start with Nano Banana 2. It handles most use cases exceptionally well and is the model most of our 250,000+ users default to.

New models are added to Banana AI regularly. Ultra plan subscribers get early access to new models before they are available on other plans.

Credits are Banana AI's currency for image generation. Every time you generate an image, credits are deducted from your balance based on the model you choose.

There are two types of credits on Banana AI: subscription credits and top-up credits.

Subscription credits are included with your monthly or yearly plan. Starter gives you 2,000 credits per month, Pro gives 8,000, and Ultra gives 20,000. These credits reset at the start of each billing period. Any unused subscription credits are forfeited on reset, so it is worth using them before your billing date.

Top-up credits are purchased separately as one-time credit packs. They never expire and never reset. You can buy 2,000 credits for $29.99 or 6,000 credits for $49.99. These stack on top of your subscription credits and carry over month to month indefinitely.

When you generate an image, Banana AI spends your subscription credits first. Top-up credits are only used once your subscription credits run out. This means your purchased credits are always protected until you actually need them.

Each model costs a different number of credits per generation: Grok costs 15 credits and is the fastest option. Nano Banana Standard costs 20 credits. Nano Banana 2, our most popular model, costs 40 credits and delivers the best balance of quality and speed. Nano Banana Pro costs 70 credits and produces the highest quality results for professional use cases.

You can check your current credit balance at any time in your account settings under the Credits tab. The dashboard also shows your balance before each generation so you always know how many credits you have left.

If you run out of credits mid-month, you can purchase a top-up pack without changing your subscription. Top-up credits are available immediately after purchase.

Subscription credits reset each billing period unused credits are forfeited on reset. Top-up credits purchased as one-time packs never expire and roll over indefinitely.

Upload your existing photos to Banana AI and generate new profile pictures in flattering settings outdoor shots, lifestyle scenes, smart casual outfits. AI-generated photos let you show your best self without expensive photoshoots. Users report significantly more matches after updating their profiles with Banana AI photos.
