We Hear You. Our Commitment to the Photography Community.
Dear valued Evoto user,
Over the last 24 hours at Imaging USA, we’ve had some tough, honest conversations with many of you. You’ve expressed anger and concern over a technical pilot we were testing—an AI Headshot Generator.
We want to be clear: We missed the mark, and we are sorry.
As a tech company, we often test the boundaries of what’s possible. However, we realize that by testing a tool that generates images from scratch, we crossed a line. Evoto was built to handle the heavy lifting of retouching—not a tool that replaces the person behind the lens.
As of today, we have permanently removed the AI Headshot Generator. We also want to address the rumors regarding your data. This is our "ironclad" promise to you:
Your photos are yours. We do not use your images or your clients' images to train our AI models.
Our training is ethical. We source our data exclusively through commercially licensed and purchased imagery.
Photography is about human connection, lighting, and the artist's eye. We are returning our full focus to what we do best: building the world’s most powerful retouching tools to help you reclaim your time.
Thank you for being loud. Thank you for holding us to the standard you deserve. We are listening, and we are committed to earning back your trust.
Sincerely,
The Evoto Team
