Add Hotpot to your hut →Hotpot is a collection of approachable AI tools with no learning curve — AI headshots, background removal, image restoration, colorisation, and graphic templates. It's designed for people who need one specific thing done quickly rather than a power-user creative tool.
Many tools are free with watermark or limited exports. Credits from $10 or subscription plans for regular users. Popular for generating professional headshots from casual photos and restoring old or damaged photographs. Often compared to Remini for photo enhancement and to Aragon AI for AI headshots.
