You can use Photoroom to create and publish product listings to your store. By default, new product listings are drafts, so that nothing goes live until you’re ready. But you can change the product status when you publish, if you prefer.
When creating a new listing, you can:
Upload or generate product images
Use AI to create titles, descriptions, filenames, and alt text
Add images to product variants
Publish listings to your store.
Once the product is in your store, you can add pricing, stock, and other details before making it live.
Steps (Web App)
Follow these steps to create a product listing and publish it to your store.
Note: This article does not cover editing the product images. See Edit Product Catalog images (Web App).
Stage 1: Create a product listing
Log in to Photoroom at app.photoroom.com.
Select the Space that's connected to your store.
Select Shopify products.
Select Add product.
Use the Add images dialog to add product images. You can upload new images or choose from previously uploaded or generated images.
Select Create product.
Photoroom creates a product and opens the AI Shot List.
Stage 2: Use AI Shot List to add more product images
AI Shot List is an AI Tool that's designed to generate common e-commerce images. It opens by default when you add a new product so that you can quickly create a range of product images and publish.
Choose one or more shot types, for example, Back or Lifestyle.
[Optional] Select the + icon and upload more images of your product. This lets you add photos of the product from different angles, which helps the AI to produce more accurate results.
Select Generate.
Each generation uses AI credits.
Repeat until you have at least 6 images per listing (recommended).
When finished, X to close the AI Shot List.
Note: You can also add images manually, see Add images to a Product Catalog listing (Web App).
