Photoroom vs Shelfgen

Photoroom is a freemium photo editor from a maker founded in 2019 and headquartered in Paris, France. It runs on the web, iOS, and Android, with batch editing, layers, masking tools, cloud sync, and AI retouching. A free plan is available. The Pro plan includes 8,000 AI credits and 1,000 exports per month for up to 50 seats. Max provides 25,000 AI credits and 3,000 exports monthly, also for up to 50 seats. Ultra provides 75,000 AI credits and 10,000 exports monthly with the same seat limit. Enterprise uses custom credits and includes adjustable AI Shadows, visual QA tools, SLA and SSO, plus dedicated onboarding and support. The listed plans do not include prices. These plans set different monthly allowances for AI processing and exports, while the editing features support both batch workflows and individual image adjustments. Cloud sync extends the workflow across supported platforms, and masking and layers provide control over image composition.

Shelfgen is web software that turns product photos into image assets for marketplace sellers. From one photo, it can generate nine outputs, including a white-background main image, a lifestyle scene, a detail macro and a dimension callout. Its tools also cover background changes, listing image generation, infographics, lifestyle photos and batch editing. Presets for Amazon, Shopify, Etsy and eBay apply platform-specific ratios and export validation. Shelfgen says scenes are composed around products to retain labels, logos, textures and geometry. CSV bulk uploads can handle up to 200 SKUs per batch, with structured output folders and status tracking; business workflows add brand presets and multi-brand workspaces. The free Starter plan includes five AI credits, one SKU at a time and watermarked exports. Lite costs $19 a month and includes 100 credits per month, bulk upload for up to five SKUs and no watermark. Higher listed tiers include more credits and larger batch limits. Browser tools for text overlay, crop, basic light and color, and local blur do not use AI credits. Shelfgen advises reviewing final images before uploading them to marketplaces.
