Product Photo Cleaner

Cuts product backgrounds clean in 3 seconds. Replaces a $48k Production Designer.

The Problem

An SMB owner spends $48k/yr on a Production Designer who manually masks product photos in Photoshop — every Shopify SKU, every Etsy listing, every Amazon hero, every Instagram post needs a clean cutout on white or a transparent PNG. The role is 80% pen-tool drudgery, exactly what a U2-Net agent does in 3 seconds.

The Outcome

Drop a raw product shot in /inbox/ → agent runs U2-Net background removal → emits PNG with transparency + JPG on white + JPG on brand-color → uploads to Shopify product gallery via API + Drive folder. You approve a batch in Slack; it commits the rest.

Day in the Life

Hourly: scans /inbox/raw-product-photos/ → cuts backgrounds → emits 3 variants per photo (transparent PNG + white JPG + brand-color JPG)

On Shopify product create: detects placeholder image → auto-fetches the supplier source → cleans + uploads the hero shot

Mon 9am: bulk-runs the prior week's photo shoot → posts a Slack approval grid for the marketing-friendly hero
