## What is LightGlow?

Every photo has a cinematic version. LightGlow finds it.

Pick a photo. Pick an effect. Seconds later, AI re-imagines your shot as a
movie still — street lights switch on, rain slicks the asphalt, the sky turns
to golden hour — while everything that matters in your photo stays exactly
where it was.

EFFECTS (new ones added regularly)
• Neon Nights — day turns into a neon-lit night with wet reflections
• Golden Hour — warm sunset light and long shadows
• Tokyo Neon, Blade Night, Night Drive — electric city moods
• 35mm Film, Vintage 70s, B&W Film — timeless analog looks
• Anime Film — your photo, hand-painted like an animated movie
• Night Flash, Spotlight, Candlelight — portrait looks with real drama
• Storm, Winter Blue, Autumn Gold, Foggy Morning — command the weather
…and more.

BEFORE / AFTER
The signature slider lets you compare the original and the transformed photo —
in the app and for every creation saved in My Work.

SIMPLE PRICING
New users get free generations to try. Then use credits — buy a pack (they
never expire) or go Pro for a recurring credit allowance, no watermark and
early access to new effects. Every generation costs credits shown up front.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No account, no email. Your originals are auto-deleted from our servers after
7 days, results after 30. Nothing is used to train AI models.

Photos are processed by our AI provider to create your images. Results are
AI-generated interpretations and may include artifacts.
