A daily photo game that teaches you to see differently.
Neat Photo turns daily photography into a game. Instead of filters or passive scrolling, you get a fresh theme, a rotating AI critic with unique preferences, and just 3 shots to compete on a daily leaderboard. Every photo is graded on composition and lighting, and you can even collect objects in your photos as rare emojis. It’s intentional, playful, and built to make you a better photographer every day.
Hi Product Hunt! 👋
I’m Max. My co-founder and I spent the last decade designing game systems at Activision and DeNA, and we’ve always felt photography deserved a proper daily loop rather than more filters or knobs to tweak.
We built Neat Photo as a photography game that teaches you to take better photos through intention, constraints, and playful competition.
📸 How the Daily Loop Works
Daily Theme: A new creative idea every morning, like “Urban Shadows.”
Daily Critic: A rotating AI critic with unique preferences and multipliers.
Daily Constraint: Three free shots each day, encouraging intention over volume.
Daily Ranking: Your best three photos are graded on composition and lighting and placed on a daily leaderboard.
🎮 A Little Fun on Top
The app also detects objects in your photos and turns them into collectible emojis with RPG-style rarities. A simple desk photo might drop an Epic 💻. It’s lighthearted and creates small moments of surprise.
🚀 What This Beta Is
This is our first public TestFlight with 200 spots. The app is fully usable, and we’re actively refining onboarding, critic fairness, and balance across a few systems.
🙏 What We Want to Learn From You
• Does the daily loop bring you back the next day?
• Does the critic feel fair and clear?
• Are the themes interesting enough?
• Is the pacing right?
• Is the emoji system enjoyable or distracting?
• Any confusing or rough edges we should fix quickly?
We built Neat Photo to make daily creativity feel approachable and enjoyable. If you join the beta, thank you. Your comments will directly shape the next few weeks of development.
See you on the leaderboard. 📸🔥
