FAQ
- One photo only — is that enough?
- Yes — one photo is all it takes. A well-lit half- or full-body solo shot works best; your photo becomes the first frame and the AI grows the tail from there. No need to film anything.
- The tail joint looks fake — fix?
- The seam is the whole game. Use the rock-dive preset so a big splash covers the waist-to-tail join, or pick Deep Swim where small movements hide flaws. Rule of thumb: tight clothes, small moves, more water, more realistic. Avoid sunglasses, masks and flowy skirts.
- Can I use my pet's photo?
- Absolutely — the 11M-view golden retriever mermaid is the proof. Upload a clear front-facing pet photo and the face stays exactly the same, only the body becomes a tail.
- Group photo — everyone a mermaid?
- Group shots are a known fail zone (one viral fail got 3M views for swallowing a friend). We transform the main person only and softly blur the rest — for the cleanest result, use a solo photo.
- Is the mermaid video free?
- You can try it free online, no app download, right in your browser. The result is a 5–10s vertical video you can post straight to TikTok or Reels.
- How to go viral with my mermaid video?
- Post the vertical original with Rosé's Messy or the Mermaid Aqualina sound — that's the BGM formula behind the breakout hits. Add #aimermaid and a before/after frame; the 'wait, that's me?!' reaction is the share trigger.
- Real footage or AI?
- It's AI: your real photo plus a generated tail, bubbles and light. Done well it looks like an underwater shoot — which is exactly why the trend exploded. Don't pass it off as a real dive.
