Add Person to Photo

Add Person to Photo is a web-based AI compositing tool that inserts a missing person into an existing photograph with matched lighting, shadow, and perspective. The tool targets a specific gap in consumer photo editing: the technically demanding task of blending a person from one image into a scene from another, without visible seams or mismatched color. The result is a single composite image that looks as though everyone was present when the shutter clicked.

Who uses it and why

The primary audience splits into two broad groups. The first is families dealing with absence — a parent who passed before a wedding, a grandparent who never met a grandchild, a sibling who was overseas during a reunion. Placing a deceased or distant relative into a meaningful photo is the use case the product is most openly built around, and it handles the emotional weight of that task without requiring any technical skill from the user.

The second group is more casual: travel companions where one person was behind the camera, colleagues missing from a team photo, or friends who got stuck in traffic before the group shot. The tool also supports purely creative edits — inserting someone into a painting, a vintage photograph, or a stylized scene.

How the workflow runs

The process takes two image uploads. The first is the background scene — the photo that is missing someone. The second is a portrait of the person to be added. The AI reads face structure, skin tone, and body proportion from the portrait, then places the subject into the scene with lighting and shadow adjusted to match the original environment.

An optional text field lets users nudge the output before generating. The tool provides copy-paste prompt templates for the most common adjustments: controlling where in the frame the person appears, specifying a physical interaction like an arm around a shoulder, matching an artistic style for non-photographic scenes, or correcting scale and depth when the AI places someone at the wrong apparent distance. These templates lower the barrier for users who are not familiar with prompt writing.

Generation takes under two minutes. The output is a PNG or JPG in the original aspect ratio, sized for printing or sharing.

Limitations worth knowing

Each generation adds one person. Adding multiple missing subjects to the same scene requires running the tool separately for each, which multiplies both time and credit cost. The quality of the output also depends on the portrait reference — a low-resolution or partially obscured face will produce a weaker composite than a clear, well-lit headshot.

There is no free tier. Users need to purchase a credit pack before generating anything, which means the tool cannot be evaluated on a real photo without a financial commitment upfront.

The product is web-only. There is no desktop application, mobile app, or API, which limits integration into professional workflows.

Pricing structure

Add Person to Photo sells credits in one-time packs with no subscription. The entry pack is $9.90 for 30 credits, suited to occasional use or testing the tool on a handful of photos. The mid-tier pack is $29.90 for 150 credits, discounted from a listed price of $49.90, and is positioned as the option for families, events, and travel photos. The top pack is $49.90 for 750 credits, aimed at studios or power users running batch composites.

Credits do not expire, which makes the pricing model reasonable for infrequent users who might return to the tool months apart. There is no penalty for buying a pack and using it slowly.

Privacy handling

Uploaded photos are automatically deleted within seven days and are not used for AI training or shared with third parties. For a tool that handles sensitive material — portraits of deceased relatives, family photos, personal travel images — that policy is relevant context for users deciding whether to trust the service with their images.
