●MidEye CandySolve My Problem

Virtual try-on with 100+ facial landmarks, but Snapchat, Instagram, and TryOn apps already do this.

Strengths
  • •100+ facial landmark approach captures underlying bone structure, not just surface overlays.
  • •Privacy-first: images deleted after 7 days, no training data harvesting.
  • •Multiple tools in one suite: hairstyle, beard, glasses covers common grooming decisions.
Weaknesses
  • •Virtual try-on is a crowded category with established players (Snapchat filters, Instagram, specialized apps).
  • •Face 'rating' component feels tangential and potentially controversial; unclear if it adds value or alienates users.

Target Audience

People considering hair, beard, or style changes; appearance-conscious individuals wanting previews before commitment.

Post Description

Hi HN,

Deciding on a new look (hair, beard, or glasses) is usually a gamble. We built a suite of computer vision tools under Looksmaxxing AI (Face IQ) to help visualize these changes before committing to them.

We’re using 100+ facial landmark points to ensure generative outputs respect the user's underlying bone structure.

The tools:

AI Hairstyle Changer: https://looksmaxxingai.app/tools/ai-hairstyle-changer

AI Beard Generator: https://looksmaxxingai.app/tools/ai-beard-generator

Virtual Glasses Try-On: https://looksmaxxingai.app/tools/virtual-glasses-try-on

Privacy: We do not store photos or use them for model training. All images are purged immediately after the analysis/inference is complete.

I’d love to hear your feedback on the generative realism and how well the 3D alignment handles different head tilts.
