Imagine building AI skincare tools from a tiny European country and ending up in Vogue and Forbes. That’s exactly what Haut.AI, a startup founded in Estonia in 2018, has done. In just seven years, this science-first company went from local labs to global headlines, proving you don’t need Silicon Valley’s address to shake up the beauty industry.
The Estonian Startup That Beat the Odds
Estonia isn’t just famous for forests and saunas. It’s a tech hub punching above its weight. Haut.AI started here with a simple idea: What if AI could make skincare smarter? Co-founders Anastasia Georgievskaya (a bioengineer) and Konstantin Kiselev (a physics-trained AI expert) combined their skills to create tools that analyze skin with 98% accuracy using just a smartphone camera.

But how did they go from lab experiments to working with top beauty brands? “Science is our foundation,” says Georgievskaya. “We didn’t chase trends. We built tech that solves real problems.”
SkinGPT: The AI That Shows Your Skin’s Future
Haut.AI’s breakout innovation? SkinGPT, a Generative AI tool that launched in 2025. Forget basic filters. This tech lets beauty brands visualize how their products affect the skin of each individual consumer over months or years
- Snap a selfie today.
- SkinGPT shows how wrinkles, dark spots, or acne might improve if you use a specific product.
- Enables brands to create virtual skincare try-ons for their products

Privacy First: Meet Skin Atlas
Ever worry about sharing selfies with an app? Haut.AI’s Skin Atlas fixes that. This patented anonymization method uses Generative AI to remove personal identifiers from user photos (like eyes, lips, hair and other) while keeping skin analysis accurate. It allows brands to offer skincare shoppers personalized advice without sacrificing security and accuracy.
Deep C.A.R.E.: Why People Trust This AI
Haut.AI’s newest tool, Deep C.A.R.E., solves a big problem: Why should you trust AI skincare advice? Most systems give vague tips (“Try this moisturizer!”), but Deep C.A.R.E. explains exactly why a product fits your skin.
Science + Startup Hustle = Global Success
Haut.AI’s team isn’t just techies. They’re published scientists with 15+ peer-reviewed papers on AI and dermatology. That rigor helped them land partnerships with major beauty brands and a spot in Sifted’s 100 fastest-growing startups list.

What’s Next for Haut.AI?
From Estonia to Forbes, Haut.AI’s story proves that small teams can drive big changes. Next up? Making their tools even more accessible. Georgievskaya hints: “Imagine checking your skin health as easily as checking the weather.”
For now, their tech is already in use worldwide, from small beauty brands to industry giants, helping them to create more personalized consumer experiences. And that’s a win for skin longevity fans everywhere.

Why This Matters:
- AI skincare isn’t sci-fi. It’s here, and it’s getting smarter.
- Haut.AI’s tools blend science and privacy for trustworthy results.
- Even small startups can out-innovate giants if they focus on real problems.
