Claid is an image and video suite for product and fashion photography, available on the web and through an API. Its tools include AI Photoshoot, AI fashion models, background removal, image upscaling, light and color correction, and image-to-video. Claid says its AI is trained for product photography and aims to retain details, logos and branding. The API handles image and video operations such as AI backgrounds, natural-language editing, upscaling and generative resizing; batch processing is supported. Images can be processed from AWS S3, Google Cloud Storage or a web folder. Claid’s Zapier integration can send edited and generated images to more than 6,000 apps. The company identifies marketplaces and ecommerce businesses as users and says its story began in 2017 while addressing low-quality product photos for ecommerce platforms. Claid says it is GDPR and CCPA compliant, encrypts data at rest and in transit, and does not use customer data for model training; SOC 2 is in progress. A free plan includes 50 credits for any operation and 50 API credits. A free trial is also listed.
