Announcing the $1,000,000 ModiFace MFund


ModiFace will provide up to 50 entrepreneurs the equivalent of $20,000* (in service credits, resources, and cash) each to build their own virtual makeover websites, mobile applications, iPhone tools, or brand-sponsored marketing websites.

ModiFace, the facial detection and modification company with the world's most advanced library of instant and fully automatic facial transformations and makeover options**, is announcing the launch of the ModiFace MFund program. Modiface will provide resources including up to $20,000 per submission in the form of application service credits, advertising credits, and performance-based cash.

"We are delighted to put our resources behind up to 50 teams of entrepreneurs who want to use our technology to build their own companies" remarked Parham Aarabi, Founder and CEO of ModiFace. "We will provide each team with full access to our technology, provide advertising and public relations support, and provide them site monetization guarantees to help them get their business off the ground, for a total value of $20,000 per team."

Modiface will provide all reasonable technical help during the planning and development phases of the project, including direct access to key Modiface executives and engineers. A maximum of 50 winning ideas will be selected. Only one submission per company or team is allowed.

All ideas will be considered, although a higher weight will be given to ideas that fall in the following categories:

  • 1. Ideas that are new and unique, and are not just a copy of other websites that currently use ModiFace technologies.


  • 2. Visualization/makeover tools that are tied to a specific product or brand.


  • 3. Visualization/makeover tools that are based on new platforms such as social networking applications, mobile applications, or kiosk applications.

  • 2. A brief bio of the primary team members, including their relevant experience.


  • 3. The number of people per month who will be using your visualization/makeover tool.


  • 4. Your full contact information including email and phone number.
