How it sells itself

Product images often go live with blank alt text, generic filenames, and heavy JPEG files. That makes them harder to find in image search and slows your store. Pixly uses AI to read each photo, propose alt text and descriptive filenames, turn to WebP, and crop to a consistent square. You review every suggestion and approve in bulk, then sync approved images back to your catalog.

Resize, crop, pad and compress product images. Add text or logos and reuse presets. Use AI to remove backgrounds or authorized watermarks, upscale eligible images, or create backgrounds. Review AI results before approval: generated edits can change product details. Review manual, template or AI alt text before saving.

Key points
  • AI writes alt text and filenames based on what is actually in each photo.
  • Review and approve every image before anything goes live in your store
  • Auto-Pilot queues new product images for optimization as you add them.
  • Store Audit scans your catalog for missing alt text and heavy image files.
  • Remove backgrounds and authorized watermarks; upscale eligible images.
  • Generate backgrounds and review images before approving replacements.
  • Compress images, add text or logos, and reuse saved editing presets.
  • Review manual, template or AI alt text; undo eligible saved changes.
