The Challenge

Why Manual Mockups Don't Scale

Standing Out in a Saturated Marketplace

Etsy has over 9 million active sellers competing for buyer attention. Professional product photos are the difference between getting clicks and getting lost in search results. Most sellers cannot afford professional photography for every listing, leaving them with amateur-looking images that fail to convert.

9M+ active sellers

Etsy's Strict Image Requirements

Etsy demands high-quality images in specific formats to rank well in search. Each listing needs multiple angles, lifestyle shots, and detail views. For sellers with hundreds of products, this means creating and managing thousands of images—a task that quickly becomes overwhelming without automation.

1,000+ images needed

Variation Mockups Multiply the Work

A single design across 8 color options and 5 product types creates 40 SKUs needing mockups. Multiply that by 10 designs and you need 400+ professional mockups for one collection. Manual creation at this scale is simply not feasible for independent sellers.

400+ mockups per design set
