About Portrait Plug
Turnkey AI photo-to-art portrait store: $19 downloads, canvases up to $499
Custom portraits are one of the most-gifted products of the holidays. Portrait Plug turns a phone photo into one in about a minute. This is a working business, not a template: the AI generator, Stripe checkout, canvas upsell, admin panel and legal pages are all built and live. It needs an owner who will bring the traffic. HOW IT MAKES MONEY The customer uploads a photo (people, couples, families or pets). No account needed. They pick a style (Pencil, Color Sketch, Neon or Pop Art) and get a free watermarked preview in 20 to 60 seconds. They pay to unlock it: a $19 instant high-res download, or a gallery-wrapped canvas at $99 (16x20), $149 (24x36), $229 (30x40) or $499 (40x60). The $19 download is credited toward a canvas later. WHAT'S BUILT Live AI generation with 4 tuned styles Stripe checkout with cards, Apple Pay and Google Pay Print-on-demand canvases with free US shipping, plus international shipping to Canada, the UK, Ireland, the EU, Australia and New Zealand True-to-size "on your wall" canvas preview using the customer's own portrait Resume link, so shoppers who back out of checkout land back on their preview Private test-order mode, automatic waitlist fallback, cookieless first-party analytics 4 SEO landing pages (one per style) with product structured data Owner admin panel, terms, refunds, and a privacy policy (unpurchased photos auto-delete after 7 days) Pinterest business account WHY THE NUMBERS WORK Each portrait costs cents in AI compute, so the $19 download is nearly pure margin after Stripe fees. About 110 digital sales pays back the $2,000 asking price. No inventory, no artists, no DMs. WHY NOW Q4 is the biggest season for personalized gifts. You have about 10 weeks before Christmas, then Valentine's Day, Mother's Day and Father's Day. FULL TRANSPARENCY Launched October 2026 and pre-revenue: no sales or meaningful traffic yet.

Reason for selling
I build and launch online businesses, and I'm focused on a new project. This one deserves an owner who will put full-time marketing behind it before the holidays.
