Gradient Hero Blue
Automated Image Processing

Perfect headshots at the push of a button – thanks to automated processing.

The core of betterPortrait is our automated image processing. Within minutes, we reliably and consistently turn a smartphone photo into a professional employee headshot. The individual algorithms were developed and fine-tuned by former ETH graduates.

White balance and lighting

Lighting has a major impact on the professionalism and, above all, the consistent look of employee portraits. It’s no coincidence that photo studios use various light sources. Our algorithm automatically standardizes the lighting and white balance of your smartphone images.

Quality enhancement and retouching

We enhance the quality of smartphone photos. A light automatic retouch is also applied: teeth and eyes are brightened, skin is gently retouched, and the overall image is optimized.

Optional: Outfit adjustment

On request, we adjust your employees’ clothing to match your corporate design or dress code. Our algorithms automatically detect posture and lighting conditions to deliver convincing and consistent results.

Consistent cropping and background

Each portrait is precisely cropped, with the framing individually adjustable. The background is replaced by a uniform background that matches your brand identity. This way, new images blend seamlessly into your existing corporate look and always appear consistent.

Ready in minutes

Our automated processing delivers the edited employee photo in just a few minutes. Thousands of images can be processed at any time — ideal for fast-paced workflows, large companies, and the highest standards.

Unlimited use cases

Create as many presets as you need to cover every use case — whether for websites, social media, or internal directories. Each preset stores your desired formats, backgrounds, crops, and lighting settings.

Manual refinement

For individual requests, we offer manual retouching directly via the dashboard. Portraits are refined by a professional photo editing team and made available within minutes.

Guaranteed consistency

Every photo goes through exactly the same processing steps. Whether 10 or 10,000 portraits — lighting, background, and crop are always identical. No photographer-dependent variations, no manual readjustment.

Any input image

Whether a smartphone selfie or a professional studio photo — our pipeline automatically detects the quality. For smartphone images, quality is enhanced; for professional photos, only the desired parameters are adjusted. The result is always consistent.

Data protection guaranteed

All images are processed on secure servers in Europe. Your data is never used for training purposes, and the entire processing pipeline is GDPR-compliant. Developed in Switzerland by former ETH graduates.
