Photo Rater

Your photos are doing most of the talking — let's make sure they're saying the right things. Upload up to 4 and find out what's working and what's costing you matches.

Upload photos

Add up to 4 photos. We'll score each one for dating-app impact and rank them in the order we'd put them.

Before you upload — quick checklist

  • · Lead with a photo where your face is clearly visible and well-lit
  • · Avoid group photos as your first image — make it obvious which one you are
  • · Outdoor natural light almost always beats indoor flash
  • · Candid or activity shots outperform posed photos in engagement
  • · Remove sunglasses from at least your first 2 photos
  • · Show variety — one photo up close, one full body, one doing something you love

What to do next

Great photos get matches. Make sure you're ready for them.

Photos bring people in — your bio and your opener are what converts a match into a conversation.

Common questions

How many photos should I upload?

Upload all the photos you're considering using — up to 4 at once. The more context we have, the better the ranking and the more specific the feedback.

What types of photos work best to upload?

The same ones you'd consider using on your dating profile. JPG, PNG, or WebP. Avoid screenshots of photos — upload the original for the clearest analysis.

Are my photos stored?

Image bytes are sent only for the live model request. We store a short summary of your inputs (like filenames) and the model output in your run history — not the raw image files.

Can I upload photos from different apps?

Yes. The analysis focuses on the photo itself — lighting, composition, expression, and overall appeal — not where it was taken or which app it's for.

Why it matters

Your photos do 90% of the work

Dating apps are visual-first by design. A split-second glance at your lead photo determines whether someone swipes left or stops to read more. Getting your photo selection wrong means losing people before they ever see your bio, your personality, or your messages.

#1

Most common reason for a left swipe: the lead photo. Not the bio, not the prompts — the first image.

Lighting and framing signal effort

A well-lit photo with a clear face communicates confidence and social awareness. Dark, blurry, or distant photos send the opposite signal — even subconsciously.

Photo order matters as much as content

Your second-best photo in the lead slot can cost you matches your best photo would have earned. The sequence tells a story — which photo opens, which builds interest, which closes.

Group photos and sunglasses are stealth killers

If someone can't immediately tell which one is you, they move on. Photos where your face is obscured — even stylishly — consistently underperform against clear, solo, face-forward shots.
