USE CASE

Add AI headshots to your product & upsell users, without the complexity.

You already have the audience. Now upsell them AI headshots at $35–$79 per headshot — powered by two API endpoints, fully white-labeled under your brand. Zero ML team. Zero infrastructure. Pure margin.

The Opportunity

You already have the users. Now monetize them.

Your platform already has thousands of users with profiles, resumes, or public pages. Every one of them is a potential buyer of professional AI headshots, you just haven't given them a way to buy yet.

AI headshots sell for $35–$79 each. Your users already trust your platform and are already engaged. Adding headshot generation as an upsell turns existing traffic into a new revenue line — without acquiring a single new user.

The problem? Building this yourself means hiring ML engineers, managing GPU infrastructure, and maintaining quality control systems. That's months of engineering time and hundreds of thousands in cost before you collect a single dollar.

With Runflow, you ship it in days. Two API calls. We handle the models, the GPUs, and the quality gates. You set the price, keep the customer relationship, and pocket the margin.

Integration

Four steps. Two endpoints. Done.

No GPU management. No model training pipelines. No quality control headaches. Your developers call our API, we handle everything else.

01

User uploads photos

Your user selects 8–12 selfies through your own UI. You collect them however you want, drag-and-drop, camera capture, mobile upload. Your brand, your experience.

02

Analyze scores each image

Send the photos to our Analyze endpoint. Each image gets a quality score, face clarity, lighting, resolution. Reject bad inputs before generation, so your users only wait for results that will be good.

03

Generate headshots

Pass approved images to the Headshot endpoint. Runflow creates an AI model of your user and generates professional headshots in the styles you configure, business, creative, casual, custom.

04

Deliver ranked results

We ping your webhook with finished headshots, automatically ranked by likeness accuracy. Substandard outputs are filtered out before they ever reach your user. You display the best results in your UI.

Capabilities

Quality that justifies the price tag

Charging $35–$79 per headshot only works if every output is flawless. Runflow bakes quality gates into every step — from input screening to likeness ranking to automatic filtering — so your users get results worth paying for.

Input quality pre-screening

The Analyze endpoint scores every uploaded photo for face clarity, lighting, resolution, and usability before generation begins. Bad inputs get caught early, saving GPU time and user frustration.

AI model creation

Runflow trains a personalized AI model for each user from their approved photos. The model captures facial features, skin tone, and distinguishing details for accurate headshot generation.

Automatic likeness ranking

Every generated headshot is scored against the original photos for likeness accuracy. Results are automatically ranked, the most accurate representations surface first.

Quality filtering

Outputs that don't meet the quality threshold are discarded automatically before delivery. Your users only see headshots that pass both likeness and quality gates.

Full white-label

Your users never see the Runflow brand. The entire experience lives inside your product, your UI, your branding, your customer relationship. We're invisible infrastructure.

Style configuration

Control output styles, backgrounds, clothing options, and quality tiers through API parameters. Match the headshot experience to your product's specific audience and use case.

Technical

Simple REST API. Two endpoints.

Standard HTTP requests. JSON responses. Webhook callbacks for async generation. Your developers can integrate this in a single sprint.

Analyze

POST /v1/analyze

Working with Runflow changed how we build. Our developers can integrate a new AI feature by calling an endpoint, they don't need machine learning expertise, infrastructure knowledge, or DevOps skills. We just focus on making the best headshot product, and Runflow handles everything underneath.
