Founded by former TikTok employees Melody Chu and Jing Liu, Superpose uses artificial intelligence technology to guide users on how to pose during photo shoots.

How the App Works

Superpose allows users to take a selfie or photograph a friend, utilizing artificial intelligence to generate four different potential pose suggestions.

Origin Story

The idea for the app stems from a personal problem experienced by co-founder Melody Chu, whose husband struggled to take good photos of her.

Usage Data and Pricing

Launched in July, the app has been downloaded more than 22,000 times and users have generated over 190,000 poses. In addition to five free daily credits, additional packages are available.

Investment and Funding Process

The startup has raised a total of $2.2 million in funding from companies such as Khosla Ventures, Meitu, and OVTR Ventures.
