Packshot editing

Remove mannequins, crop images, and publish automatically in your own style. Review remains optional per brand or collection.

Define once how your packshots should look. Each photo then follows the same quality rules, whether from your own studio or a supplier. For each brand or collection, choose what publishes automatically; only exceptions you deliberately want to review remain visible to your team.

How it works in practice

From set image standard to sales-ready photo set

You see which steps are active, which rules apply per image type, and what is ultimately published. Standard edits do not cost extra credits within the monthly plan; only generative AI is charged per image.

Photopilot settings with separate image rules for model and product photography
Settings

Set image rules once

Split model and packshot photography and determine per route background, shadow, template, color correction, cropping, and exceptions. New images then automatically follow the same standard.

Source image and results side by side

In the production interface, the source image, model image, front view and back view appear side by side. Let trusted brands and collections flow through automatically; only exceptions need attention.

AI image generation

Choose per AI packshot for speed, price, or maximum quality

Photopilot works with a wide range of carefully selected image models. This means you are not tied to one model: large volumes can follow a cost-effective automatic route, while hero and detail images can follow a more precise route.

Most image edits do not cost extra credits Cropping, grid alignment, standard background removal, pipeline shadow, color correction, formats and export are included in the monthly plan.
Generative AI only · via the background queue €0,05 per AI image
Background queue €0.05 per AI image · direct processing from around €0.12
Fast & cost-effective For large volumes via batch processing in the background.
Balanced For daily collection images with extra quality space.
Maximum precision For hero images, complex fabrics, and important details.

We continue to select the most suitable image models; you only choose the desired balance between speed, price, and quality.

Dynamic scaling

Each product at the right scale and with the right margin

Photopilot uses the product type and known dimensions to depict the product credibly. A suitcase, table lamp, or serum does not get the same crop as a blouse.

  • Height, width, and depth from product data
  • Own scale and margin per product type
  • Exception visible when dimensions are missing

Scale guarantee when the required product dimensions are complete.

  • Suitcase 75 cm
  • 50 cm planter

From mannequin to ghost packshot, with realistic interior

Photopilot recognizes the silhouette, removes the mannequin, and retains fit and folds as the garment falls. Do you have a separate shot of the lining and inner label? It is automatically combined in the final result, making your packshot look like a realistically hanging garment.

Also works with one source image as a backup. This creates a clean ghost packshot without a visible interior.

No separate shoot needed for your packshot

Only have model photos and no separate packshot? Photopilot automatically generates a packshot. The garment is isolated from the model photo, corrected, and placed on a clean white background, so you still have a product page-worthy hero for each item.

The generated packshot shows no label on the inside and can also be displayed as an extra image slot alongside your existing packshots, without overwriting existing slots.

Also the other way around: packshot to model

Fixed editing steps

Every packshot runs through the same fixed actions

The order is fixed. First, the image is cleaned up, then crop, color, shadow, and export follow. You can use different settings per brand or article group, while the result remains predictable.

For your team, this remains clear: you define differences in advance, instead of editing each photo separately.

Editing steps for grid, shadow, color, background, and export
  1. Grid

    Place the article on your fixed guide lines, with article-group-specific margins and ratio.

    Included · no extra credits
  2. AI shadow

    Add a subtle shadow when the product would otherwise look too flat or floating.

    Included · no extra credits
  3. Color correction

    Correct white balance and product color based on reference images and previously approved photos.

    Included · no extra credits
  4. Background

    Remove edges, imperfections, and excess space before making the final crop.

    Included · no extra credits
  5. Export

    Write filename, format, order and channel according to the publication rules.

    Included · no extra credits
Directly from the studio into the system

No manual uploads, no manual naming

Photopilot Studio connects with your Canon camera. Profoto, OrbitVu, and Capture One can follow via your existing studio output. The photographer shoots, and our software places each shot directly with the right item and in the right image slot, whether it's front, back, detail, or hero. No folder work and no ambiguity about which photo belongs to which item.

Template & Framing

Consistent posture and framing

For each item group, you set the grid: how large the item appears, where the shoulder line falls, and how much space remains around it. Each new photo automatically follows that standard.

Included · no extra credits
Color consistency

White balance, background and AI shadow

Backgrounds are cleaned to soft white, with subtle shadow preserved or added. Color profiles stay consistent between camera shoots and supplier images, so the collection feels like one whole.

Included · no extra credits
Image slots

One source, multiple destinations

Square for the product page, portrait for social media, wide for the hero banner. Each output variant has its own cropping rules, format, and destination. Automatic or manual approval publishes everywhere.

Included · no extra credits
Linked to article

Photos automatically link to the correct item

With the file name, EAN, supplier code, or barcode, Photopilot links each photo to the correct article. This is followed by automatic approval or a quick review by your team.
