One image editing API to access multiple solutions

Connect to a single API and unlock best-in-class tools for every stage of product visual production: from cutout to product staging to ghost mannequin.

Background Removal

The AI background removal API detects complex edges, handles transparency, and delivers clean cutouts at scale - ideal for product catalogs and marketplace listings.

Virtual Model

Place apparel and accessories on AI-generated models that match your brand aesthetic. On-model imagery via the Virtual Model API: no casting, no studio, no production timelines.

Flat Lay

Generate consistent, editorial-quality flat lay product photography at enterprise scale. Maintain visual identity across thousands of SKUs through the Flat Lay API.

Ghost Mannequin

Produce ghost mannequin apparel shots with perfect shape retention through an AI-powered Ghost Mannequin API endpoint. Scale invisible mannequin photography without a studio.

Product Staging

Place your product into realistic lifestyle scenes - held, worn, or displayed - with the natural lighting and composition of a high-end photoshoot.

Edit With AI

Describe any change in plain language and our AI makes it - swap colors, remove or add objects, restage the scene, or shift the camera angle.

Product Beautifier

Enhance low-quality product and food images automatically with the Beautifier API. No retouchers, no studios. Our AI restores detail, corrects color, and improves overall quality at scale.

Add Shadows

Add realistic shadows to the main subject of your image, with complete control over the softness, intensity and position of the shadow.

Generate Backgrounds

Dynamically create new backgrounds with our first-class generative AI, perfectly matching the subject of the original picture.

Relighting

Fix badly lit photos automatically. Our AI rebalances over- and under-exposed images, with modes that keep product colors accurate or optimize for portraits.

Text Removal

Remove watermarks, labels, and real-world signage from your images automatically - choose what goes and what stays.

Expand

Resize any image to any format without cropping. Our AI generates the extra background to match the original, filling every empty pixel seamlessly.

Uncrop

Recover subjects clipped by the frame. Our AI reconstructs the missing parts from the visible portion, automatically.

Ironing

Make every garment look freshly pressed. Our AI smooths creases and wrinkles out of clothing photos automatically - no steamer, no reshoot.

Create Any Image

Generate images from a text description alone - no source photo needed. Describe the scene, pick a format, and get original content back.

Uncertainty Score

Know when a cutout needs a second look. Every response returns a confidence score from 0 to 1, so you can auto-flag ambiguous images for review at scale.

Perspective Correction

Straighten angled shots of flat, rectangular products - cards, books, games - into clean, straight-on views. No generative AI, so hallucinations are impossible by design.

Positioning

Control exactly where the subject sits in the result - scaling, alignment, padding, and margins - so every image in a catalog comes out consistently framed.

Smart Cropping

Reframe images around the subject automatically - prompt it to focus on a specific element, or crop faces out for marketplace compliance.

Upscale

Turn small, low-res images into sharp ones at 4× the size - with a fast mode for volume and a slow mode for maximum quality.
