## What it does

Goatee.io lets you try on facial-hair styles virtually. You upload a single
photo, pick a style (or get a recommendation based on your face shape), and the
AI renders a photorealistic preview of how that goatee or beard would look on
your own face. It is built for people deciding whether — and how — to grow
facial hair, without weeks of waiting to see the result.
