Capabilities
AI Backgrounds and Product Staging
canonicalverified todayGenerative AI that places a cut-out product into a new scene. AI Backgrounds generates a realistic backdrop behind the subject in under a second from a text prompt or preset, and Product Staging composes the product into a full real-life environment (e.g. a kitchen counter, a marble surface). Related generative tools include AI Shadows, Product Beautifier (studio-grade enhancement), Virtual Model (apparel on AI-generated models), Ghost Mannequin, and Flat Lay.
AI background remover
canonicalverified todayPhotoroom's signature capability: automatic AI background removal that instantly produces a clean cutout of the product or subject. After removal the background can be kept transparent, set to white, set to a custom color, or replaced with a generated scene.
Magic Retouch / object removal
canonicalverified todayAI retouch that removes unwanted objects, people, or distracting details from a photo by swiping over them; the AI eraser fills the cleaned-up area to match the surrounding image. Marketed as Magic Retouch for creating professionally retouched e-commerce product visuals.
Remove Background and Image Editing API
canonicalverified todayA developer REST API exposing Photoroom's editing engine via standard HTTP calls. The Remove Background API returns a clean cutout; the broader Image Editing API adds lighting/PhotoFix correction, Reposition (centering, padding, marketplace-margin compliance), Product Beautifier, Photo Composition, Virtual Model, Flat Lay/Ghost Mannequin, Image-to-Video, and Analyze-QA auditing. Designed for high-volume e-commerce catalogs; Photoroom reports processing 3M+ images/day for clients such as Klarna, Wix, Amazon, and Depop.
Shopify integration (Product Catalog)
canonicalverified todayPhotoroom connects directly to a Shopify store so sellers can create, edit, and manage product images inside Photoroom and publish them straight to Shopify product listings, keeping a store's imagery visually consistent. New listings are created as Shopify drafts, so nothing goes live until the seller publishes.
Subscription plans, export limits, and commercial rights
canonicalverified todayPhotoroom offers a Free tier plus paid plans (Pro, Max, Ultra, with Ultra split into x1/x2/x5/x10 sub-tiers) and an Enterprise plan. Free use is capped at a monthly export limit and is explicitly not licensed for commercial use; paid plans allow commercial use and unlock high-resolution export and the advanced AI tools.
