Melpi
Get app

Look selfie-good,
your boyfriend / your friends / your mom / the barista / a stranger takes the shot.

Melpi is a camera for the person being photographed. Overlay the shot you want on their camera, review photos as they arrive — and finally love the photos other people take of you.

Being photographed is hard.

Poses are hard to describe. Asking for a retake feels awkward. And the photos live on someone else’s phone. So you settle for “good enough” — again.

Don’t explain the shot.
Just show it.

That pose you saved from Instagram, or your best photo ever — pick the composition you want. No words needed.

It overlays right
on their camera.

Your chosen shot appears as a translucent guide on the photographer’s screen. Boyfriend or barista, they just line it up.

Watch every shot,
as it’s taken.

Each photo lands on your iPhone the moment it’s shot. React, or tap to ask for “a little more to the left” — no awkward retakes.
