PFPMaker vs HeadshotPro
Both will get you professional headshots. The difference is what you pay per person, how quickly you want the finished set, and how much you get back for it.
Before you compare features, count the photos. HeadshotPro asks for a small set of selfies before it will generate anything; its site currently says one to three. Go and look at your camera roll and try to find a few clear, recent, well lit photos of your own face, at different angles, without sunglasses, without a group around you.
Most people can find them, but it is still a small task before the actual generation begins. That extra step matters when you are trying to update a profile quickly. We need one photo.
HeadshotPro publishes complete pricing on their own site, and their tiers were consistent everywhere we checked.
The short answer
PFPMaker costs a fraction of HeadshotPro per person, starts from one photo instead of a small selfie set, and gives you more than a corporate headshot. That holds whether you are buying for yourself or for a whole team.
The HeadshotPro entry plan is $29 for thirty headshots and takes around two hours. Their fifteen minute turnaround sits on the $59 plan. HeadshotPro currently asks for one to three selfies before generation, while we start from one photo.
We start from one photo, deliver in about ten minutes on our top plan, and cost a fraction of any of that. You also get more than a corporate headshot, because full body portraits and creative profile pictures are style choices here rather than a separate product.
Teams work the same way. Everyone gets their own shoot and their own gallery, so the photos stay consistent across the group while each person keeps control of their own images. Because the per-person cost is single digits rather than tens of dollars, covering a whole department costs less than a couple of seats do elsewhere.

Pick PFPMaker when
- You want to start with one photo instead of gathering a small selfie set first
- You want a creative or social profile picture as well as a professional one
- You want the fast turnaround without paying for the top tier
- You are covering several people and want the per-person cost to stay small
What people say about their photos
Updated all our executive photos in one afternoon. The consistency across the team looked better than our last in-person studio shoot. Saved us a full day of scheduling and logistics.
Carlos Mendoza
CEO
Been looking for something like this for months. The executive headshot came out genuinely good. No uncanny valley, no weird hands, nothing off. And it doesn't make you jump through three sign-up screens before you can try it. That alone puts it ahead of half the competition.
David Osei
Tried the linkedin headshot option last month. Profile views went up that same week. I was honestly skeptical but the result looked like I paid a photographer. My recruiter asked where I got it done.

Looking for a HeadshotPro alternative?
Most people searching for a HeadshotPro alternative fall into one of two groups. Either the price per person did not stack up once they added it all together, or they got as far as the upload screen, saw the number of selfies required, and closed the tab.
If you are in the second group, that is the practical difference here and it is worth being specific about. A small selfie set is still a task before generation. One photo is enough to begin with us.
One photo to get started
HeadshotPro currently asks for one to three selfies before it starts. We need one clear, recent photo. If you can provide two or three from different angles the variety improves, but one is genuinely enough to begin.
Fast without the upgrade
HeadshotPro puts its fifteen minute turnaround on the $59 Executive plan, and their entry plan takes around two hours. Our ten minute delivery sits on a plan that costs a small fraction of $59, so speed is not something you have to buy your way up to.
More than a corporate headshot
HeadshotPro does business headshots and does them well. If you also want something for Instagram, a full body portrait, or a profile picture with actual personality, that is a different tool and a second payment. Here it is one of fifty-plus styles.
A price that reflects where you live
HeadshotPro charges $29 whether you are in London or Lagos. Our pricing is purchasing-power adjusted, so what you pay tracks local costs. For most of the world that is a far bigger difference than any feature on this page.
Is there a free HeadshotPro alternative?
HeadshotPro runs a free AI headshot generator as a way in, and there are genuinely free options elsewhere from Canva, Adobe and others. They are worth trying before you spend anything.
What you should expect from free tools is a recognisable AI look: skin smoothed flat, features subtly generic, backgrounds that fall apart if you look at them. That is not a knock on any particular tool, it is what happens when a generation is not tuned to hold on to one specific face. Several free tools also keep your uploads for as long as they like.
We are not free. But the distance between free and us is small enough that trying it is not really a financial decision, which is the point.
Already used HeadshotPro? You do not need anything from them to try this. Upload one photo, pick a style, and compare the two sets before you change your profile.

Team pricing starts around $19.50 per person at volume, billed as credits. If you are buying for a company, that is a genuinely competitive rate.
Cost per photo

Same arithmetic on both sides: the cheapest published price divided by the number of photos it delivers. That makes HeadshotPro about 7 times the cost per photo.
Doing this for a whole team?
It works, and the economics are the reason to look. Everyone gets their own shoot and their own gallery, so the photos stay consistent across the group while each person keeps control of their own images. At a per-person cost in single digits, covering a department costs less than a couple of seats do elsewhere. The part we have not built yet is the paperwork around it: one consolidated invoice, an admin dashboard, single sign-on. If your finance team needs all of that today, it is worth knowing before you start. We are building it, and the list below is where you hear about it first.

Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about our AI photo service.
Yes, substantially. HeadshotPro starts at $29 and runs to $59. Our plans sit well below that, and because our pricing adjusts for purchasing power the gap is usually wider still outside the US. The live prices on this page are the real ones for your country.
They offer a free AI headshot generator as a way to try the service, with full photo sets on the paid plans starting at $29. Free tiers across this whole category tend to produce noticeably more generic results than paid generations.
Our Pro plan delivers in about ten minutes. HeadshotPro lists fifteen minutes on their $59 Executive plan, thirty minutes on the $39 plan, and around two hours on the $29 entry plan.
HeadshotPro currently asks for one to three selfies. We work from as little as one photo, though two to three from different angles can give better variety.
Yes. Everyone on the team gets their own shoot and their own gallery, which keeps the look consistent across the group while each person keeps control of their own images. At a per-person cost in single digits it works out well below per-seat pricing elsewhere. The piece we have not built yet is the admin layer around it, meaning one consolidated invoice, a dashboard and single sign-on.
Yes, with either tool. LinkedIn takes action against fake profiles built on fabricated faces of people who do not exist, which is a different thing entirely from an AI enhanced photo of your own face on your own real profile.
