I Built a Free AI Photo Transformer — 50+ Styles, No Signup Required
Image: Dev.to

I wanted to play with AI image generation without paying for Midjourney or dealing with Discord bots. So I built SnapShift — a free web tool that transforms photos into artwork in seconds.

What it does:

  • Upload any photo (portrait, pet, landscape, product)
  • Pick from 50+ styles — cyberpunk, anime, oil painting, Ghibli, movie posters, 3D figurines, and more
  • Download in 1K or 2K quality
  • No signup, no limits, completely free

Tech stack: static site on GitHub Pages, AI generation via Agnes API with Cloudflare Worker proxy.

Try it: https://snapshit.fun Would love to hear what other styles you'd like to see!
