Here are the top AI headshot tools according to hundreds of Ohana users who landed new jobs

Why we care about AI headshots at Ohana

In 2025, Ohana became the largest subletting community in NYC after helping ~9000 people move to NYC. The number one reason people use Ohana is because they just landed a new job and want temporary furnished housing before comitting to a 12 month lease. We surveyed hundreds of our users and asked what helped them land these new jobs. Many of them mentioned updating their linkedin with a new headshot - mostly AI generated headshots We asked hundreds of Ohana users what they'd recomend for AI headshots and here's waht the said:

1. Aragon AI

The clear number one recommendation from our community was Aragon AI Dozens of Ohana users told us they used Aragon to update their LinkedIn before applying to new roles. Several explicitly said they believed their updated profile photo helped them get more recruiter responses and interviews, which ultimately led to the job offer that brought them to NYC and into an Ohana sublet. Aragon stands out for a few reasons: The photos look the most like you. Not an overly airbrushed, uncanny version, but a polished, professional version. Strong variety of backgrounds and outfits that feel corporate, startup, finance, tech, healthcare, and more. Consistent lighting and framing that mirrors traditional studio headshots. A common theme we heard was: “It looked like I hired a professional photographer, but I did it in 30 minutes.” If you’re actively job searching or about to start, this is the tool our users recommend first.

2. Secta AI

Secta AI was another tool that came up frequently in our survey. Users liked that Secta produces a large batch of options, which is helpful if you want to test different “vibes” on LinkedIn. Some of our users mentioned using a more corporate-looking photo when applying to consulting and finance roles, and a slightly more relaxed version when applying to startup jobs. The feedback here was generally positive, though a few users said they needed to upload very clear input photos to get the best results. When the inputs were strong, the outputs were strong.

3. HeadshotPro

HeadshotPro was another commonly mentioned platform. Users described it as reliable and straightforward. You upload your selfies, choose a style, and receive a range of professional-looking headshots. Several Ohana users said they appreciated how easy the process felt compared to coordinating a photographer, especially when they were already juggling interviews and moving logistics. It may not have been mentioned as often as Aragon, but it consistently showed up as a solid option.

Ohana sits at a very specific moment in people’s lives.

Most of our users come to us right after they’ve landed something new. A new job. A new city. A new chapter. They’re not ready to commit to a 12 month lease yet, so they book a temporary furnished place through Ohana while they figure out neighborhoods and build community. When we asked what helped them get there, the AI headshot came up far more than we expected. So if you’re in interview mode or about to start applying, this is one of the simplest upgrades you can make. And based on what we’ve heard from hundreds of successful job switchers, Aragon AI is the place to start.
