Although the app is available for free, the AI yearbook feature requires you to subscribe to one of the delivery plans. The plans differ in the time taken for AI yearbook generation. The developers offer you the following plans:-

1. Standard Delivery

In this plan, you can get your AI yearbook pictures within 24 hours. You can opt for this option if you don’t have an urgent requirement for the yearbook. The app charges you $5.99 for this plan. Unfortunately, at this point, the standard delivery option is not available.

2. Express Delivery

The express delivery plan is for excited users and celebrities as it provides you the output within 2 hours of the payment. For express delivery, the app charges $9.99 for every user. 

Is the AI yearbook safe?

Safety is a major concern for AI headshot apps like these as it involves the pictures of the user which can be a direct breach of their privacy. There were allegations against the developers that they were storing the data to enhance the working of AI.

But, in a recent press conference, the app developers revealed that the pictures do not remain on the server and are removed after delivery. Therefore, we can say that the EPIK app ensures that your AI yearbook is safe and there is no threat to your privacy.

The AI Yearbook trend was originally a brainchild of the EPIK app but the app generates the yearbook through in-app purchases. You don’t need to worry as we have an alternative to the EPIK app. The Reface app also allows users to generate the AI yearbook of the 1990s.

The app is available for free on the Google Play Store and the App Store. Reface does not charge any fees for generating the Yearbook, unlike EPIK. Apart from EPIK and Reface, various other apps provide the same service.

Conclusion

The AI yearbook is a great option to relive the days of the 1990s which is practically impossible but thanks to artificial intelligence using which we can generate our 1990s look. The majority of the users prefer EPIK over any other app to generate their pictures but the unavailability of the standard delivery option is making people look for other options.
