Saad Sellami
Founder & AI Developer — BestPick
Saad Sellami is a full-stack developer and AI engineer who built BestPick from the ground up. With hands-on experience in computer vision, machine learning pipelines, and user-facing product design, Saad created BestPick to solve a real problem he noticed: people waste enormous time choosing between nearly identical photos with no objective feedback to guide them.
The platform is built on FastAPI, Python, and a custom multi-model AI analysis pipeline that evaluates facial expression, lighting, composition, and platform-specific engagement signals. Saad designed and shipped every component — from the AI inference layer to the mobile-first frontend — as a solo developer.
About BestPick
BestPick is an AI-powered photo selection platform that analyzes multiple photos simultaneously and identifies which one will perform best for a given use case — whether that's a dating app profile, a LinkedIn headshot, an Instagram post, or a professional portfolio.
The AI pipeline evaluates over a dozen visual signals per photo including: facial symmetry, smile genuineness, eye contact direction, lighting quality and direction, background clutter, color temperature, and composition framing. Results are returned in under 10 seconds with a full written explanation of the reasoning.
