- What does Silai Studio do?
- It generates catalogue-ready product photography from one reference image. Send a phone photo or a link, pick a photography style, and it returns four or five editorial frames on a model, plus a costed price and the product record.
- How much does one product cost?
- A complete product set starts at about ₹37 on the Starter plan. A studio shoot for one garment usually costs ₹5,000 or more once a model, photographer, location and editing are paid for.
- How long does it take?
- A five shot set finishes in about thirty seconds.
- What are credits?
- Credits are the unit every action is priced in. A plan grants them monthly and top ups add more. A full set is 50 credits, a core set is 40, a colourway is 45 and reshooting a single image is 12. Your first reshoot of any product is free.
- Do the photographs use a real model?
- The images are generated. Each set is shot in one of twelve locations with a consistent model across every frame, so a set reads as one photoshoot.
- Can it price a product as well as photograph it?
- Yes. Enter what the garment costs you to make and it works out card fees and duty, applies a tier price band, and returns a retail price with a full breakdown.
- What is virtual try-on?
- A button on your own product pages. A shopper adds a photo of themselves and sees the piece on their own body, in about ten seconds. You paste one line into your theme and nothing else about your site changes.
- How much does a try-on cost?
- Ten credits, which is about ₹6 to ₹7.50 depending on your plan. Growth covers 140 try-ons a month out of its credits. You set a daily cap so a busy day cannot run away with a month of credits.
- What happens to a shopper's photo?
- It is used to make that one image and deleted within six hours. It is never shown to anyone else and never used to train anything.
- Does try-on work on Shopify?
- Yes. It is one script tag in your theme, and the button appears under Add to cart on every product page. It works the same way on WooCommerce or any other store.
- What kinds of clothing does it handle?
- Twenty built in categories including skirts, dresses, co-ord sets, trousers and kurta sets, and you can add your own category with its own price band.
