Bria’s Product Shot Editing APIs gives builders powerful tools to streamline visual content creation — enabling developers to automate and enhance product shots with more control, flexibility, and realism.
Core capabilities include product cutouts, customizable backgrounds for professional packshots, consistent shadow rendering, and AI-powered lifestyle shots using both text and reference images.
Automotive Product Shot Editing
As a first step, we’ve introduced dedicated support for automotive workflows — adding vehicle-specific features such as realistic reflection generation, tire and wheel refinement, environmental effects (e.g., fog, dust, snow), and harmonization presets.
These capabilities are designed to reduce manual work and help teams create high-quality vehicle visuals faster, with more creative control. Support for additional product categories is coming soon.

The Product Shadow API allows you to add consistent and customizable shadow to a product cutout. This feature is designed to work in combination with other capabilities like product cutout, product packshot and product lifestyle shots, enhancing the visual appeal of e-commerce and product imagery.
If the product image isn't a product cutout, you should use the product cutout API first. The product shadow API accepts a product cutout as input. Once you have a product cutout with a shadow, you can use it in product packshot or product lifestyle shot APIs, where needed.
This API endpoint supports content moderation via an optional parameter that can prevent processing if input images contain inappropriate content or if the modified output would contain inappropriate content.
The URL of the product image or product cutout. If both image_url and file are provided, image_url will be used. Accepted formats are jpeg, jpg, png, webp. Maximum file size 12MB. The input image must have a transparent background, could be obtained by using our background removal or cutout features.
The product image or product cutout file, in base64 format. Used if image_url is not provided. Accepted formats are jpeg, jpg, png, webp. Maximum file size 12MB. The input image must have a transparent background, could be obtained by using our background removal or cutout features.
Specifies the type of shadow. It can be 'regular' or 'float'. This parameter is optional.
The background hex color code for the resulting image. If you would like to get a transparent background, don't include this parameter in the request. This parameter is optional.
Controls the position of the shadow relative to the object, in pixels. Accepts a tuple-like list [x, y] where x and y can be positive or negative values. This parameter is optional.
Adjusts the intensity of the shadow. This parameter is optional.
Controls the blur level of the shadow's edges. This parameter is optional. Default for 'shadow_type'=regular is 15, while for 'shadow_type'=float is 20.
(For floating shadows) Controls the width of the elliptical shadow, in pixels that could be positive and negative. As default the value is according to the width of the product. This parameter is optional.
(For floating shadows) Controls the height of the elliptical shadow, in pixels that could be positive and negative. This parameter is optional.

Creates enriched product shots by placing them in various environments using textual descriptions.
In addition, you can adjust the background of the product by replacing it with a solid color. To do this, specify a hex color code (e.g., #FF5733) in the scene_description.
This feature is only available when generating a single result (num_results=1).
This endpoint also allows adjusting the position of the product and the size of the final product shot.
This enables the creation of new and unique variations of your original product image while maintaining control over layout and format.
To control product positioning and shot dimensions, use the placement_type parameter, which offers several control modes:
original: preserves the original position and size of the product from the input image.
automatic: generates results with 7 recommended placements, while the shot_size is defined by the 'shot_size' parameter.
manual_placement: allows choosing from predefined positions using manual_placement_selection. The shot_size is defined by the 'shot_size' parameter.
custom_coordinates: provides full control over the product's size and location using foreground_image_size and foreground_image_location. The shot_size is defined by the 'shot_size' parameter.
manual_padding: lets you define padding in pixels around the product to control both size and placement.
automatic_aspect_ratio: centers the product and resizes the canvas automatically to match the specified aspect_ratio.
The parameters used for positioning and sizing depend on the selected placement_type. Refer to the documentation for each mode to understand the supported fields and behaviors.
This API endpoint supports content moderation via an optional parameter that can prevent processing if input images contain inappropriate content, and filters out unsafe modified images - the first blocked input image will fail the entire request.
Determines the response mode. When true, responses are synchronous. With false, responses are asynchronous, immediately providing URLs for images that are generated in the background. It is recommended to use sync=false for optimal performance. When generating more than 1 result, you should use the value false. When placement_type is automatic, sync has to be false.
Determines the generation mode. When true, the generation will utilize the fast mode which provides the best balance between speed and quality. The false, the regular mode will be utilized.
The URL of the product shot to be placed in a lifestyle shot. If both image_url and file are provided, image_url will be used. Accepted formats are jpeg, jpg, png, webp. Maximum file size 12MB.
The product shot file to be placed in a lifestyle shot, in base64 format. Used if image_url is not provided. Accepted formats are jpeg, jpg, png, webp. Maximum file size 12MB.
Text description of the new scene or background for the provided product shot. Bria currently supports prompts in English only, excluding special characters.
When true, an additional logic takes the scene_description that was included and adjusts it to achieve optimal results. Built with Meta Llama 3.
The number of lifestyle product shots you would like to generate. You will get num_results x 10 results when placement_type=automatic and according to the number of required placements x num_results if placement_type=manual_placement.
Elements or features that should be excluded from the generated scene. This parameter is optional and is available only when fast=false. Bria currently supports descriptions in English only, excluding special characters.
This parameter allows you to select the control mode for determining both the product's positioning and the final shot size.
original_quality, aspect_ratio, foreground_image_size, foreground_image_location, manual_placement_selection, padding_values, and shot_size will be ignored when this mode is used.aspect_ratio. The parameters original_quality, foreground_image_size, foreground_image_location, manual_placement_selection, padding_values, and shot_size will be ignored when this mode is used.This flag is only relevant when placement_type=original. If true, the output image retains the original input image's size; otherwise, the image is scaled to 1 megapixel (1MP) while preserving its aspect ratio.
Defines the aspect ratio of the output product shot when placement_type is set to automatic_aspect_ratio. The original image will be automatically positioned and scaled to fit this aspect ratio. Ignored for all other placement types.
The desired size of the final product shot. For optimal results, the total number of pixels should be around 1,000,000. This parameter is only relevant when placement_type is automatic, manual_placement or custom_coordinates.
Specifies the desired dimensions of the foreground image within the generated output. The size is defined as an array of integers representing [width, height] in pixels. This parameter is only relevant when placement_type is custom_coordinates.
Specifies the desired [x, y] coordinates for positioning the foreground image within the full shot. The coordinates represent the upper-left corner of the foreground image. Values can extend outside the shot, in which case the input image will be cropped accordingly. This parameter is only relevant when placement_type is custom_coordinates.
If you've selected placement_type=manual_placement, you should use this parameter to specify which placements/positions you would like to use from the list. You can select more than one placement in one request.
The desired padding in pixels around the product, when using placement_type=manual_padding. The order of the values is [left, right, top, bottom]. For optimal results, the total number of pixels, including padding, should be around 1,000,000. It is recommended to first use the product cutout API, get the cutout and understand the size of the result, and then define the required padding and use the cutout as an input for this API.
