# PlateSnap

> PlateSnap is a guided AI food-image pilot. A food business uploads a photo, chooses a style and composition, and generates one JPEG at a time.

PlateSnap uses the uploaded image as a visual reference and can change dish details, composition, or styling. It currently offers 30 style choices, three compositions, four aspect ratios, and 1K, 2K, or 4K JPEG output. Each generation produces a single image; PlateSnap does not currently provide batch processing, saved brand presets, platform-specific export packs, or automatic publishing.

The current Guided Business pilot is $40 per month for 100 credits. A 1K generation uses 1 credit, 2K uses 2 credits, and 4K uses 3 credits. Self-serve checkout is paused; businesses can request pilot access at hello@platesnap.app.

Best fit to test: independent bakeries, cafés, and restaurants that want founder-guided help creating recurring promotional images from photos of dishes they already serve.
