What's that?!
Ask your camera.

Point Nani Sore at anything and it writes the caption, reads your future, or tells you exactly what you're looking at — in seconds.

In development · Beta testing opens soon

Your future, readFrom one photo
FOUR WAYS TO ASK

One photo.
Four answers.

Take the shot, add a line of context if you want, then pick what Nani Sore should make of it.

Write my post

A caption in your voice, ready to paste straight into your social app — with hashtags and alt text generated alongside it.

Tell my future

A playful premonition drawn from whatever is in the frame. Purely for fun — and surprisingly good at parties.

Describe the scene

A clear, factual account of what's actually in the photo, plus landmarks, tags, and how many people are in it.

Make it a better shot

Honest notes on composition, lighting, framing, and focus — with a rating out of five, if you can take it.

HOW IT WORKS

Three taps from “nani sore?” to posted.

Point and shoot

Open Nani Sore and take the photo right in the app. Flash, night mode and a self-timer are all there. Mark who's in the frame if you want them recognised.

Tap Analyze

Pick a mode and Nani Sore goes to work — caption, premonition, description, or shooting tips. You can save it as a draft while it thinks.

Keep it or share it

Leave it on Local and it stays yours. Flip it to Public and it joins the gallery, where everyone can see what you pointed at.

WHAT'S COMING

Today it's a gallery.
Next it's a feed.

Right now, sharing is a single public gallery — everything anyone posts, newest first. That works, but it isn't the plan. Here's what's designed, what's being built, and what's still an idea.

Live in the build Designed, building next Designed, later Still exploring
Live

Capture, analyze, share

Everything in the screenshots above is working today: the in-app camera, all four generation modes, drafts, and the public gallery.

  • Local or Public on every post
  • Auto hashtags and alt text
  • Person markers at capture time
  • Save to your camera roll
Building next

Friends and following

Follow anyone you like — no approval needed. When you both follow each other, you're friends, and that single fact unlocks nearly everything else.

  • Friends-only posts, alongside public ones
  • A Friends tab: strictly newest first, no algorithm
  • A “new since you were last here” marker
  • Tag people in a photo — friends only, so the mutual follow is the consent
Building next

Replies, in photos

You don't reply with words. You reply with a photo of your own, linked back to theirs — a conversation made entirely of pictures.

  • A reply is a full post: its own caption, tags and analysis
  • Only visible to the two of you and the friends you share
  • Chains as deep as you like
  • Delete yours and theirs survives — the backlink just quietly stops
Designed

Levels, earned by showing up

There are two windows a day, morning and evening. Fill them and your level climbs; go quiet and it slips. Level 1 to 3, and it changes how much room your posts get.

  • More posts per window, more people you can tag
  • Longer descriptions — 280 characters at level 1, 1,000 at level 3
  • A thumbnail strip pulling from your back catalogue
  • New accounts climb more than twice as fast for the first week
  • Not shown in the feed. It's on your profile, and nowhere else
Designed

Posts that look like you

Pick a background colour for your posts and the text colour is worked out for you, so it always stays readable. Add a background image and it sits softly behind, never over, the words.

  • Custom background colour and image
  • Text contrast guaranteed by construction, not by a rule
  • Pin your favourite shots into the thumbnail strip
  • A one-tap plain view for readers who want the decoration gone
Designed

Discover, replacing the gallery

The single public gallery becomes a second tab that actually reads your taste — matched against the tags on the photos you take and heart.

  • Public posts only, always
  • Mostly matched to your subjects, with a slice of whatever's busy
  • Deliberately never narrows to one topic
  • Nothing you post privately can surface here
Designed

Messages and safety

Direct messages between friends, and the controls to shut down anything you don't want — built in from the first release of the feed, not bolted on later.

  • Mute quietly, block completely
  • Report any post for review
  • Under-16 accounts are friends-only by default and never appear in Discover
  • Blocking dissolves the friendship and everything that hung off it
Exploring

Further out

Ideas we like but haven't committed to. Tell us which of these you'd actually use and it moves up the list.

  • Verified profiles with a logo and a link, for brands
  • More languages for generated captions
  • Collections — grouping your own shots into sets
  • Richer reactions beyond the heart

An honest note about all of this. Nani Sore is one person's project and it's in active development. The feed described above is designed in detail but not yet written — the app you'd test today has the camera, the four modes, and the simple public gallery you can see in the screenshots.

Everything here can change. Nothing on this page is a promise of a ship date, and features may be cut, reshaped, or arrive in a different order. Join the beta list and you'll hear about it as it lands.

YOUR PHOTOS

Nothing is shared
until you share it.

Every post starts on Local. Photos you take in Nani Sore are stored on our servers so your results follow you between devices, and you can save any of them to your own camera roll whenever you want. Making one public is always a deliberate tap, never automatic.

You can take photos without an account.An account is only required to share or see other people's posts.
Delete photos or your whole account, in the app.No email tickets, no waiting on us.
No ad tracking, no analytics platforms.We don't run Google Analytics or advertising SDKs, and we don't sell your data.

The short version of who touches what

  • Firebase handles sign-in, your account record, photo storage, and messaging.
  • OpenAI receives only the photo you tapped Analyze on and the prompt you typed — nothing else.
  • Sign in with Apple or email are the two ways in. Your name and profile are editable; email is tied to the account for now.
  • AI results can be wrong. Read the caption before you post it, and don't plan your week around the fortune.

PRICING

Free while we build it.
Fair when we're done.

Nani Sore is completely free during testing. Subscription tiers are being designed and are not available yet — nothing in the app charges you today, and there is no payment screen to stumble into.

FREE

Have a go.

  • Take photos in the app
  • A handful of analyses to try it out
  • Save photos to your device
  • Browse and post to the gallery
Available in beta
PREMIUM

For the always-shooting.

  • Everything in Basic
  • The highest analysis allowance
  • Custom post colours and backgrounds
  • One extra post per window
Not yet available

Paying will never outrank posting. Level is earned by showing up, and no subscription buys a level — a paid account gets exactly one extra post per window, and that's the only place the two lanes meet.

QUESTIONS

Nani sore, exactly?

So what does the name mean?

“Nani sore” (なにそれ!?) is Japanese for “what's that?!” — the exact noise you make when you spot something odd and reach for your phone. That's the whole app in two words.

Do I need an account?

Not to take photos. You'll need one to share to the gallery or see what other people have posted. You can sign in with Apple or with an email address and password.

Can I add friends yet?

Not yet. Sharing today means posting to a single public gallery that everyone can see. Friends, following, replies and private posts are designed and are the next thing being built — there's a full breakdown in What's coming.

Where do my photos go?

Photos taken inside Nani Sore are stored on our servers using Firebase, so your results are there when you come back. You can save any photo to your own device, and you can delete photos — or your entire account — from inside the app.

What does the AI actually see?

When you tap Analyze, the photo you selected and the prompt you entered are sent to OpenAI to generate the result. Nothing is sent for analysis unless you tap the button.

Is the fortune telling real?

Absolutely not. “My Future” is a party trick generated from what's in your photo. Enjoy it, screenshot it, do not make financial decisions with it.

How old do I have to be?

Nani Sore is for people aged 13 and over. When the feed arrives, accounts under 16 will be friends-only by default, won't appear in Discover, and will need to approve anyone who wants to follow them.

When can I try it?

Nani Sore is in development. Register below and we'll email you when beta testing opens.
