Merchants know the importance of product photos — including the backgrounds.
What follows are seven AI background generators to diversify and improve product photos for use on-site, in social media, or even with ad creatives. To test the seven options, I used the same image of pink children’s sports shoes from Pixabay, the stock photo site.

Claid.ai generates AI backgrounds for user-provided photos. Upload your product shots, then select the theme of your new images. I chose “Nature” and received the images below.

Pebblely generates images based on an uploaded photo and the chosen category — e.g., Studio, Outdoors, Gifts, Flowers. There’s also a “Surprise me” category which generates images on random topics, handy for inspiration.
Pricing for Pebblely starts at $19 a month for 1,000 monthly images. The free version generates 40 photos per month.

CreatorKit is a photo and video editor focusing on ecommerce. Upload your photos and choose a category. (I chose “Shoes.”) From there, select a style (e.g., Confetti, Studio, Paint, Water, Pebbles, Birthday Party, more) or provide your own. I typed “natural light, expressive style, eye-catching” and received the images below.
CreatorKit is free. The Pro plan at $299 per year facilitates Instagram Stories and Facebook ads.
