How it works

  1. Pick a trend

    Start with a seasonal look, an art style or a video effect from the examples above.

  2. Add a clear photo

    A front-facing photo in good light works for most looks. Effects with two people need both of you in the shot.

  3. Generate and compare

    Check the result next to your original, tweak one word of the prompt if needed, then save it.

This week's TikTok trends, by country

We keep a separate list of formats taking off on TikTok in the US, the UK, Mexico, Brazil and Germany, refreshed every week. Each trend has its own page with a short description of the format, a prompt you can use here and an example image we made ourselves. The original video plays in TikTok's own player when you click it; we never copy it.

The full list is on TikTok trends this week.

Which AI trends keep coming back?

Some formats return every year, so they are worth saving for later.

  • Seasonal portraits. Halloween costumes and Day of the Dead face paint peak in late October; snowy sweater portraits and family holiday cards follow in December.
  • Art styles. Anime, hand-painted animation and cyber neon never fully leave the feed, they just change colors.
  • Old money. Navy, cream and a sunny terrace by the sea. It works best with a full-body photo.
  • Video effects. Hugs, dances and cheek kisses made from a still photo. Use a photo where everyone is clearly visible.
  • Aging. You, thirty years from now. Write what should change and what should stay, like your smile.

What does it cost to try a trend?

New accounts start with 30 gems and 1 Cinema credit, and you can begin without signing up: an anonymous account is created automatically. The cost of each run is shown before you generate, and if a generation fails, the gems come back automatically. Current prices for every model are on the pricing page.

Questions about AI Photo Trends You Can Make With Your Own Photo

How do I know which AI trend is popular right now?

This page follows the looks people are actively posting, like Day of the Dead portraits in late October. For short-video formats, the weekly TikTok list shows what is taking off in each country, with a ready prompt for every trend.

Do I need the exact prompt other people used?

No. Every look here starts from a written prompt you can read and edit before you generate. You can also skip the prompt and describe the trend in your own words, then keep the line that asks the model to keep your face.

Can I make the AI hug or dance clips here?

Yes. Start from a still photo where everyone is clearly visible, switch to video and describe the motion, for example a slow hug or a short dance. The cost is shown before you generate, so you can check it first.

Will my result look exactly like the examples?

It follows the same format and style, but your own photo shapes the final look. Lighting, angle and expression all carry over, so some variation is normal. A clear, front-facing photo gives the most consistent result.

Whose photos can I use for a trend?

Use photos of yourself, or of adults who agreed to be in the picture. Effects like a hug or a kiss involve two people, so ask the other person first before you post the result anywhere.
