Step-by-Step Guide

Upload your product image

Upload a clear photo of your product — clothing, jewelry, accessories, or any wearable item. The AI works with photos from any background.

Pro Tip: For clothing, flat lay photos work best. For jewelry, close-up shots of individual pieces.

Browse and select an AI model

Choose from 110+ pre-built AI models across diverse demographics — different ages, body types, ethnicities, and styles. Filter by the look that matches your brand.

Pro Tip: Choose models that represent your target customer. Diverse models appeal to wider audiences.

Generate the on-model shot

The AI composites your product onto the selected model in a natural-looking way — proper fit, lighting, and styling. Generation takes seconds.

Pro Tip: Generate the same product on 3-4 different models to show how it looks on different people.

Download and use

Download your on-model product photos and use them for e-commerce listings, social media, lookbooks, and marketing campaigns.

Can I use the same model across my catalog?

Yes. Select one model and generate your entire product line on them for a consistent lookbook or catalog aesthetic.

What types of products work best?

Clothing, jewelry, eyewear, bags, and accessories work best. The AI is trained on fashion and lifestyle product photography.
