Imagined with AI: AI portraits, $4.5K a month, self-reported in 2023

Imagined with AI generates portrait photos of people, pets, and loved ones. Its $4.5K a month was reported by the founder in an interview (not independently verified), as of January 29th, 2023.

What it actually sells

Imagined with AI generates AI-generated portrait photos from uploaded images of people, pets, or loved ones. Its site says, “Together, we decided to start this website and offer people unique artwork of theirselves, their loved ones or their pets.”

The generated output covers 120 portrait images in 15 different styles. The site also says the resulting model is available for download and can be used in most Stable Diffusion tools.

How it charges

The site lists a $6.99 package for 120 images across 15 styles. It says users start by uploading 5-10 photos of themselves, their pet, or a loved one, and that the AI generates new photos within no time.

Where customers come from

Imagined with AI offers an online interface and an app. The site says, “And with our easy-to-use online interface (or app!), anyone can create beautiful portraits in just a few simple steps.” The pages also provide a downloadable model for use in most Stable Diffusion tools.

What stands out

Training typically takes 2–3 hours on average, depending on the queue. Users are notified by email when their generated pictures are ready.

The site says uploaded images are sent to an external training service and are then deleted. It also says the idea for AI-generated portraits came up during a city trip to New-York in october 2022.

Where it sits in the data

Imagined with AI's $4.5K a month is higher than 58% of the 6,604 projects with founder-reported monthly revenue in our dataset; the median across them is $2K. Snapshot: 2026-09-30. The dataset only covers founders who chose to publish their numbers, so it leans toward businesses that work; use it for scale, not as an average.

Currency

All figures are in US dollars as published. A rough yuan or euro conversion is not applied here because prices, taxes and acquisition costs differ by country.

Could you build something like this?

My view is that the buyer is a person seeking portraits of themselves, a pet, or a loved one. Distribution would need a clear path through search, social content, partnerships, or an app store, while the product would need to make uploading, waiting, and downloading straightforward.

The hard parts are general: managing image-generation infrastructure, handling user uploads and generated outputs, addressing privacy expectations, and supporting users when results are delayed or unsatisfactory. Competition would come from other AI portrait generators and image tools.

Verdict: Needs real work.

One thing to take from it

Imagined with AI combines a specific audience—people wanting portraits of themselves, their pets, or loved ones—with a fixed package that lists 120 images in 15 styles for $6.99. The site also supports use outside its interface through a downloadable model for most Stable Diffusion tools.
