How it sells itself

Uploading photos product by product takes hours. With Pixfolder you prepare one subfolder per product, named after its title, handle or SKU, and select the main folder. The app matches every folder to its product, asks you to confirm partial matches and uploads all the images in one go. Photos are resized, compressed, ordered, sent to their variants by subfolder or file name, renamed for SEO and given an alt text.

Pixlume makes product photos lighter without changing how your store looks. Compress images to WebP on the product, keeping order, featured image and variant images intact, while the originals stay in Files as a backup. Alt Writer uses AI to describe each photo for shoppers and search engines. Autopilot compresses new products automatically, and Speed Lab runs Lighthouse tests to measure page performance.

Key points
  • Match folders to products by title, handle, SKU or part of the title
  • Send photos to their variants from a subfolder or the file name
  • Add to current images, replace them or fill only products without images
  • Image optimization: resized, compressed, renamed for SEO, with AI alt text
  • Compress product photos to WebP and swap them in place on each product
  • Keeps image order, featured and variant images; originals stay in Files
  • Alt Writer uses AI to describe your products for shoppers and search
