take a photo with the camera... poetry camera thinks... and prints out a poem about the<br>scene.
free verse
magnolia tips lean into light
petals unfold
(cream to rose)
branches black & thin against spring's
bright<br>blur
each flower a dawn-caught star
floating
in morning mist

A magnolia, quite proud of its bloom,
Stretched pink petals out, fresh from their tomb,
With a sunbeam's bright flash
Through its petals, a splash
Like spring's spotlight on nature's best room.

Petals patiently pause, pristine
Pale pink pieces pirouette
Piercing purity paints paradise
Peaceful patterns perfectly present

Magic camera, customize away!
Bilingual poems or jokes that bite,
Stickers, takeaways from your day,
Anything you want comes to light.
The silk-textured petals catch rays as they fall,
Translucent and glowing, they filter the sun,
Each blossom a lantern hung high on the wall
Of evening, before springtime day is done.
Some flowers stand sharp in their delicate grace,
While others drift softly, a backdrop of dreams,
Each curve and each vein finds its singular place
In nature's arrangement of shadows and gleams.
These petals hold stories of spring in their shells,
Like messages written in pink carousels.<br>-->
customize it for creative experiments, special events, and all the hidden beauty in your<br>life.

it makes poetry more accessible and irresistible.

frequently asked questions
Does Poetry Camera require a subscription?
Nope! Poetry Camera will never require a subscription to use.
Can I customize what the camera prints?
Yup! First, the camera has a knob on it that lets you switch the modes of what it<br>prints. It comes with defaults like "haiku" and "sonnet."
Next, you can customize these camera modes to print anything based on the photo<br>you take, by fiddling with the camera settings on your phone or computer. This is where<br>you can get weird! Ask the camera to write from the perspective of a bee, or print<br>postmodern receipts, or instill it with some sense of self-awareness...
Currently, the camera can print in any language that uses the Latin alphabet — including<br>Spanish, French — as well as Chinese (Simplified & Traditional), Japanese, and Korean.
We're definitely interested in experimenting with printing images... this is exactly the<br>type of feature that will be shaped by customer feedback!
What happens to the original photo?
The camera never prints the original picture! It feels more magical that way, and<br>reduces the pressure of trying to look good posing for photos.
The original photo is never saved or stored anywhere, for maximum data privacy. We don't<br>want to be in the business of storing your data.
We never train any AI models on your photos, and we take care to use AI model providers<br>that don't train on your data.
To be honest, it could be useful for the camera owner to be able to access the original<br>photos if they wanted, especially if you're using the camera for special events. We look<br>forward to hearing the community's feedback and iterating to find a useful...
