Love the giraffe image. Although I wonder if your algorithm handles faces well.

There is a huge demand in Instagram for auto touchups. Like improved lighting, smoother skin, vibrant colors, convert to anime etc. Make amateur photos look like they’re taken by pros.

Faces often don't work well unless they're really tightly framed / close up. I think it's because if the eyes turn out a bit weird, it's very off-putting.

I've thought a bit about marketing to Instagrammers, I think neural style for short videos would be a good service to offer. Not sure where it fits on my roadmap yet though.
