Cutout Studio
Create product cutouts and 360 spins, choose configurations and cameras, then review and download your renders.
Cutout Studio creates product and material renders for product listings, marketing and AI imagery. Product shots have transparent backgrounds and can include floor shadows. You can render several products, configurations and camera angles in one job, or create a 360 spin.
Create a product job
Open Cutout Studio, click Create New Job, then choose Create Product Job under Product Shots.
1. Select products
Select the products you want to render from your account's product list, then click Configure combinations. Products need an active configurator to render.
2. Choose combinations
Choose the fabrics, finishes and other options to include. For example, render every fabric with one leg finish, or select a few combinations for a campaign.
The Selection Mode controls how your choices are interpreted:
- Exclude starts with all available values included. Choose values to leave out.
- Select starts with no values included. Choose the values you want to render for each option.
Products with matching option, group and selection names appear together in configuration groups. Changes apply to every product in that group. Open an option to choose its values; you can also change the selection mode for an individual option.
Check the total combinations count as you make changes. Each additional option can multiply the number of renders. If the count is zero, check that every option has at least one included value. Products without an active configurator cannot contribute combinations.
Click Continue to Camera Setup.
3. Choose cameras
Select one or more camera options. You can combine Default, Auto cutout (when enabled for your account), fixed angles and 360 spins in the same job.
| Camera option | What it produces |
|---|---|
| Default | A still using the same camera that loads in your product's normal iframe configurator, with Cutout Studio's fit and framing rules. |
| Auto cutout | A still using the same camera and render recipe as your automatic cutouts, including your organisation’s fit, aspect ratio, lighting and shadows. Only shown when auto cutouts are enabled for your account. |
| Front Shot / Back Shot | A straight-on view from the front or back. |
| Left Side Shot / Right Side Shot | A side profile. |
| Angled Left Shot / Angled Right Shot | A view from the front corner. |
| Back Angled Left Shot / Back Angled Right Shot | A view from the rear corner. |
| Overhead Shot | A view from above. |
| 360 Spin (24 frames) / 360 Spin (35 frames) | An interactive spin made from 24 or 35 images around the product. |
How Default works
Default follows each product's configurator for your account. It preserves retailer customisations and custom cameras already configured for your organisation. Different products in the same job can therefore use different default cameras.
For example, a product configured with your organisation’s custom camera uses that camera when Default is selected. It does not switch to the fixed Front Shot angle. If the product has no saved camera, it uses your organisation’s default camera, then the standard camera if neither is set—just like the normal iframe configurator.
The camera choice stays the same as the configurator, while Cutout Studio applies its own output aspect ratio and product fitting. The framing can therefore differ from the interactive viewer.
Fixed angles use their named camera instead. Choosing Default alongside Front Shot creates both shots for each combination; each is charged as a still render, even if they happen to look similar. The 360 options use their own spin setup.
Match automatic cutouts
If your account has auto cutouts enabled, choose Auto cutout to match their rendering. It uses the same product/organisation camera as the iframe configurator, plus the automatic cutout settings saved for your organisation: fit (including box fit where configured), capture aspect ratio, lighting, shadows and animation state.
The manual shadow and animation controls in the next step apply only to your other shots. They are hidden when Auto cutout is your only choice. Each Auto cutout selection produces one still per product combination and is charged at the normal still-image rate.
This creates a new Cutout Studio job using your chosen combinations. It does not change your automatic cutout library or the organisation’s settings. Downloads use Cutout Studio’s image outputs; matching the camera and fit does not change them to the automatic library’s file format or resized dimensions.
Click Continue to Render Settings.
4. Review and generate
On Configure Your Render, review the product and combination counts, camera count and total token cost.
You can choose whether to:
- Render shadows on the floor beneath the product.
- Start supported product animations open, such as an open sofa bed.
Default and fixed product shots currently use a 16:9 output with 4K rendering. Auto cutout uses your organisation’s automatic capture settings instead.
Click Generate … Images to create the job. Rendering continues after you leave the page; return to Cutout Studio to check the result.
Resume a draft
Your product and material job setup is saved locally in your browser as you work. Return using the same account, organisation and browser to resume it. Reset job clears that saved setup after confirmation. Clearing browser storage also removes local drafts.
Costs and render counts
The review screen shows the cost before you generate. Still renders are charged per image, and 24-frame and 35-frame spins have their own per-spin prices. A spin appears as one task in the job count even though it contains several frames.
For example, 10 product combinations with Default and Front Shot produce 20 still renders. Adding a 24-frame spin produces another 10 spin tasks, each containing 24 frames.
Reduce the combinations or camera options if the job is larger than you intended. If you need more tokens, use the purchase option shown in Cutout Studio or visit the shop.
Track and review a job
Use Refresh to fetch the latest job status or progress.
| Status | What to do |
|---|---|
| Preparing | The job is being prepared for rendering. |
| Pending | The job is queued and waiting to run. |
| Processing | Renders are being generated. Open the job to see task progress. |
| Awaiting Review | Inspect the results and retry any images that need another render. |
| Completed | The job has been accepted and is ready to download. |
| Failed | Open the job to inspect failures. Successful renders may still be available to download. |
Open a job to browse the results. Use the camera and product-option filters, or search by range, material and other available details. Spin results have an interactive 360 viewer.
While the job is Awaiting Review, select any images that failed or look wrong and click Retry Selected. For failed tasks, open the failure details and use Retry All Failed when available.
When you are satisfied, click Mark as Completed. This finishes the review stage; the completed job no longer offers the image retry controls.
Download renders
Completed jobs offer Download All. A failed job with successful renders offers Download Successful.
Choose either:
- Download as flat zip to keep the files together in one archive.
- Download with folders to organise them by the available product and configuration details.
Downloads include the original still images and the frames for completed spins. Individual still images also have a download control after review. Keep the window open until the download finishes.
Create material shots
For material samples or close-ups, choose Create Material Shot Job under Material Shots:
- Select one or more material shot templates and click Continue to Materials.
- Select the available fabrics or other materials, then click Continue to Review.
- Check the templates, materials, image count and token cost, then click Generate … Material Shot Images.
Material shots use the camera and scene supplied by the selected template. The product job's Default camera option does not change material templates.
Use your cutouts
Use downloaded cutouts in product listings and marketing, or as references for AI image and video generation. Eligible completed jobs also offer Generate Lifestyles to create styled imagery from their renders.
