From founders & creators
I used to hire a photographer twice a year. Now I run a Manifesto session before every press cycle. The portraits actually look like me.

The prompts are the product. Every generation comes with the recipe — you can tweak, re-run, evolve. It's the only AI tool that respects the craft.

FAQThings people
Things people
always ask.
Do I need a paid AI subscription?+
You use the AI you already pay for — ChatGPT Plus, Gemini Advanced, Grok Premium, or an Astria account. The Founder Edition includes a model selection guide covering the cost and capability differences, including which tools have free tiers you can start with today. We never generate on your behalf, so nothing you make is locked to us.
Do you upload or store my face?+
No. Manifesto Headshot is a publishing and education product, not a face-processing service. You copy prompts and generate inside your own AI subscription — your reference photos stay on your device. There is no face upload and no biometric data on our side.
Can I see a sample before buying?+
Yes. Enter your email in the Interactive Playbook section and we'll send you the first 5 pages of the digest, 5 ready-to-use prompt templates, and high-res background assets — completely free. No credit card required.
How is this different from free prompt lists online?+
Free lists give you generic prompts for one model, with no system behind them. The Founder Edition gives you 260 tested scenes, each in four model-specific dialects (ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok, FLUX), plus reference-character prompting, wardrobe and lighting modifiers, and the studio craft behind each frame. You leave with a transferable skill, not a list.
Will the portraits actually look like me?+
Likeness depends on your reference set — which is why we teach reference-character prompting in detail. With strong references and the right workflow, results are professionally usable. The edition shows you exactly what makes a good reference and how to hold a face consistent across generations.
Why isn't it called Vol. 01 anymore?+
Because it never stops growing. Manifesto Headshot is a living magazine — new scenes ship into the same edition for life rather than being held back for a paid Vol. 02. Buy the Founder Edition once and every future headshot scene is yours, free.
What's coming after Manifesto Headshot?+
Manifesto Headshot is the first title in a series. Manifesto Pets, Manifesto Automotive, and Manifesto Atlas (with festive editions — Islamic Festive, Deepavali, and more) follow. Founder Edition buyers get 50% off every future magazine. A community (Phase 2) and a native app (Phase 3, with Founder beta access) are on the roadmap.
What's the difference between DIY Starter and Founder · Plus?+
DIY Starter ($28) is the full Founder Edition — everything you need to shoot professional portraits yourself. Founder · Plus ($44) adds every future scene free for life, 50% off future magazines, app beta access with starter credits, and first entry to the community. If you want the full Founder cohort benefits, choose Plus.
What platforms are the portraits optimised for?+
LinkedIn, Slack, Discord, X (Twitter), company websites, team pages, speaker bio cards, press kits, and author pages. Each use case has specific crop guidance including exact pixel dimensions and safe-zone overlays.
Is this a one-time purchase?+
Yes. Pay once, own it permanently. Founder · Plus buyers receive every future scene as the edition grows. The price climbs with each addition — Founder Edition buyers lock in today's price forever.
What if I'm not happy with the results?+
We offer a 14-day, 100% money-back guarantee — no questions asked. If the edition doesn't dramatically improve your AI headshot quality, email us and we'll refund you in full.
Who is this made for?+
Founders, executives, authors, speakers, and creative professionals who need polished headshots for LinkedIn, press kits, book jackets, and team pages — and want to understand the craft rather than hand it off blindly to a service.
