SAN FRANCISCO, CA - October 6, 2025 - Circo, Inc. today announced the worldwide launch of Photowand AI , an artificial intelligence platform that generates professional photography from smartphone photos and basic reference images. The service has processed 500,000 photos in a single day across 180 countries, providing businesses and professionals with an alternative to traditional photography that costs $500 to $5,000 per session.

Market Problem and Business Impact

Professional photography represents a significant expense for businesses. Real estate agents spend $200-$400 per property listing. E-commerce sellers pay $15-$50 per product photo. Corporate headshots cost $150-$500 per employee. Small businesses and individuals often cannot afford professional photography services, limiting their marketing capabilities.

Photowand AI eliminates these costs. The platform starts at $9.99 per month and produces studio-quality results in under 20 seconds per image.

How It Works

Users upload one or more reference photos-including basic smartphone selfies-and describe desired results in plain language. The AI generates professional images across any setting, pose, clothing style, or environment without photography equipment, studio rental, location travel, or post-production editing.

The system supports natural language commands in English, French, German, Chinese, Japanese, Hindi, Korean, and other major languages. Users can iterate on results by describing specific changes, and the AI applies edits without requiring Photoshop training or technical expertise.

Business Use Cases

Photowand AI serves multiple commercial applications:

• LinkedIn and Corporate Headshots: Generate professional business portraits with appropriate backgrounds, lighting, and attire
• Real Estate Photography: Create property images with enhanced lighting, staging, and presentation, such as for AirBnB, Vrbo hosting
• Product Photography: Produce catalog images with white backgrounds, lifestyle settings, or seasonal themes
• Restaurant and Food Service: Generate menu photos with professional plating and presentation
• Social Media Marketing: Create content variations for A/B testing and platform optimization
