AirBrush is an AI photo and portrait editor built by Meitu, the Chinese imaging company founded in 2008; Meitu launched AirBrush globally in August 2015 as its first product aimed specifically at North American and European users, and later added a dedicated AI headshot generator alongside its existing retouching tools.
For headshots, users upload a handful of close-up selfies, pick a style, such as a light suit, dark suit, shirt, T-shirt, or a doctor's coat, in either gender presentation, and the model returns a set of studio-style portraits, delivered by email within about an hour. The same app also bundles Magic Eraser, AI Retouch, Body Tuner, virtual makeup, and AI-driven hairstyling, so the headshot generator sits inside a broader consumer photo-editing product rather than standing alone.
AirBrush suits people who want professional-looking headshots or polished selfies without booking a photographer, rather than teams needing bulk or brand-controlled headshot generation. The app is free to download with core editing tools included; AirBrush Pro, which unlocks the full AI feature set, runs about $7.99 a month or $35.99 a year.
