Questions
PixelPanda and RAWSHOT: common questions
What is the difference between PixelPanda and RAWSHOT for apparel photos?
Both PixelPanda and RAWSHOT can begin with a clothing-item photo. PixelPanda’s product-photo workflow covers clothing, while its separate Content Studio workflow can replace the background in a person’s photo and keep the subject intact. RAWSHOT accepts product photos, flat-lays, mockups, or technical sketches and builds an on-model fashion composition. Choose RAWSHOT when you need to direct that composition; choose PixelPanda when retaining a person-photo subject is central.
When is PixelPanda a better choice than RAWSHOT?
PixelPanda is a documented option when a campaign must retain a real person you already work with. Its Content Studio supports background replacement while keeping the person-photo subject intact. RAWSHOT uses synthetic models only, so it does not provide that real-person subject workflow. If the person in your photo needs to remain the subject, PixelPanda’s documented feature fits that requirement.
Which models can I use in PixelPanda and RAWSHOT?
PixelPanda documents prebuilt AI models and reusable custom AI actors, including actors created from a reference photo. RAWSHOT uses synthetic composites and offers 1,197 models alongside a private model builder. The products document different model workflows; choose based on whether you need a reference-photo actor or synthetic casting options.
Can I use PixelPanda and RAWSHOT images commercially?
PixelPanda’s terms grant a full commercial license to generated images and videos and require consent for photos of real people. RAWSHOT grants full and permanent commercial rights to every generation, with no ongoing licensing fees on library models. Every RAWSHOT output also carries C2PA content credentials. Review each product’s terms for your intended use.
How do I switch from PixelPanda to RAWSHOT?
To make a new image in RAWSHOT, upload a product photo, flat-lay, mockup, or technical sketch, then configure the shoot through its seven steps. Select the model, outfit, styling, background, photography direction, and composition for that shoot. Keep your original product assets available so you can use them as the starting point.
