About PictoSculpt

PictoSculpt turns a photo into a 3D relief you can print or carve. It started from a simple frustration: most free converters treat brightness as height, so a portrait comes out as an embossed picture with dark hair sunk into the plaque. PictoSculpt uses an AI depth model for the shape and keeps the photo's fine detail on top, so the subject stands out from the background.

It is an independent project, free to use, and it runs entirely in your browser: your photos are never uploaded.
