What is MendPhoto?
MendPhoto is a set of focused AI tools for repairing and editing photos. Instead of one broad editor, it offers a range of single-purpose tools, including old photo restoration, background removal, background changing, object and person removal, colorizing, enhancing, unblurring, upscaling, denoising, low-light enhancement, and text removal.
The tools are aimed at people who want to fix a specific problem in an image without a steep learning curve. Examples on the site include restoring faded or scratched old photos, cutting out a subject as a transparent PNG, putting a product on a white background for listings, and making passport-size photos. Users describe one precise edit in the AI Photo Editor, and the site states that unrelated people, objects, text, and composition are kept intact.
MendPhoto says it is built to keep changes familiar and reviewable. Restoration tools aim to keep faces and details true to the original, and enhancement tools aim to improve a photo without changing the scene. The Passport Size Photo Maker is described as cropping and resizing locally without uploading or altering the face.
The site is available in English, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, French, and German, and offers plans and sign-in. Its privacy policy and terms of use are linked from the footer.

there were a couple that had been out for a couple years but none of them were successful yet That's when I realized that there was like an opening there... I think if there are a couple apps that's a good sign because they people have built it people want it just no one's really marketed it like successfully yet
Target the "2-4 mediocre apps already exist" sweet spot, not the empty niche
The ideal target niche has 2-4 unsuccessful apps already on the store — not zero (unvalidated) and not one breakout winner (too late). Existing-but-failing apps prove demand and hand you a free corpus of reviews to mine. You're looking for trends where social-media momentum has outrun the App Store: the demand wave exists but nobody has matched it with marketing yet.
My biggest expense is RevenueCat right now because they take 1% of my revenue, so depending on the month that can be a lot, but it's totally worth it. The rest adds up to roughly $200 or $300 per month.
Run lean enough to outlast the slow months — $200–300/month plus 1% to RevenueCat
Keeping fixed costs at a couple hundred dollars a month means revenue almost entirely converts to profit. A solo operator with minimal overhead can absorb slow months and still compound over years — and a revenue-share tool like RevenueCat is worth the 1% if it saves you from rolling subscription infra.
There's a play for whatever you're stuck on.
