Controlled synthetic example. The images and scores on this page are controlled synthetic fixtures for demonstrating the result contract. They are not a promise of a real person’s outcome.
The problem
The original image hides facial detail in shadow and asks the viewer to work too hard.
What the first result noticed
The first result focuses on even light, visible eyes, and a less dramatic crop.
What changed
The photo was retaken in soft, brighter light with the face kept clear and centered.
What the rerate showed
The rerate records a meaningful clarity gain without promising a guaranteed outcome.
Still needs work
The rest of the profile still needs variety so every photo does not carry the same visual job.
Original set

Decision
Needs retake
The first result focuses on even light, visible eyes, and a less dramatic crop. Low-light indoor setting obscures facial details and creates heavy shadows that reduce profile impact.
