I stopped trying to make AI product photos look “perfect”

One thing I learned while building an AI product photography SaaS:

The goal isn’t to make the image look like AI never existed.

It’s to make the product look real, desirable, and consistent.

A technically perfect image can still be useless if the product proportions change, the fabric looks wrong, or the lighting feels unnatural.

That’s where most of the work actually goes.

AI generation is easy to demo.

Making it reliable enough for ecommerce is the hard part.
