Hello Makers, Our mission at PhotoRoom is to boost businesses thanks to more efficient images. Time to create a listing is important for creators and resellers. In particular, the quicker first-time resellers get to a sale, the more successful they become. That's why we're launching an API: We want to empower app creators to implement background removal features in fewer steps. If you run a marketplace, you know the quality of the image is most of the sale. - Noisy backgrounds for listed products distract users from buying and create a cheap UI - A white background is required (https://support.google.com/merch... be able to advertise your users content on Google - Photos make a marketplace. Improving photo quality increased usage and GMV of major marketplaces like Airbnb or Uber Eat. 93% of consumers consider visual appearance to be the key deciding factor in a purchase decision(https://www.justuno.com/blog/65-...) - Instant white backgrounds will increase the satisfaction of your sellers and the chance that they get their first sell on your platform You can integrate PhotoRoom API in your seller app in under 5 minutes at a fraction of the cost of what exists today. ProductHunt audience, PhotoRoom team, PhotoRoom audience, we are all builders and entrepreneurs. We want to serve all the builders, so we are providing 1,000 images/month for free. You want to create a new Figma plugin, a new social app with friends, or a creativity app. Go build it. It's free. We would love to have feedback from marketplace owners, creators, and makers about what else they would like to see in this API.

Able to take great pics to next level. No photoshop required and add much more control over the finer details when removing noise or enhance the color. One more thing, it is free.

I uploaded a difficult photo and it managed to crop it out cleaning. Great job! Congrats on launching the API.
Vincent
@ken_moo Nice! In the PhotoRoom mobile app there's a way to select the subject of the photo to help in those difficult cases. This could be be part of the API at some point too.
Stan Massueras

Awesome product team Photoroom!
Gaspard de Lacroix
Congrats, can't wait to try the API after your killing app! Just two questions that comes to mind: - Can the lighting of the object be adjusted? I'm thinking both intensity and source. - Can a background (img, gif...etc) be injected?
Eliot Andres
@gaspard2lacroix Thank you Gaspard. At the moment that's not the case, but we have an update coming soon that will allow you to control all those attributes
Patrick Finlay
