# Input & Upload Stage
Source: https://docs.getayna.com/guidelines/input-upload
This section covers what you need to prepare and check before uploading garment images and clicking generate — including the correct upload formats, required views, and common mistakes to avoid.
## Garment Preparation
For best results, garments should be clean, ironed, and neatly arranged before photographing. Ayna supports **Flat-lay, Mannequin images, and Model shots** — explore the guidelines for each format below.
### Flat-Lay Shots
Flat-lay images are one of the best ways to upload garments on Ayna. Place the garment neatly on a flat surface so the full shape, structure, and details are clearly visible. A clean flat-lay helps Ayna detect the garment accurately and improves the final output quality.
**DOs**
* Lay the garment flat, straight, and wrinkle-free
* Keep the full garment visible with a plain background
* Use good lighting and a clear image
**DON'Ts**
* Don't upload folded, crumpled, or twisted garments
* Don't use cluttered backgrounds or dark lighting
* Don't upload cropped or half-visible items
* Avoid uploading heavy ethnic-wear garments in this format
### Hanger Shots
Hanger shots are also ideal for Ayna when the garment is hanging naturally and clearly shows its shape. The garment should be centered, properly aligned, and fully visible.
**DOs**
* Hang the garment straight and centered
* Keep the garment fully visible with a clean background
* Upload sharp, well-lit images
**DON'Ts**
* Don't upload garments hanging unevenly or distorted
* Don't upload images with missing parts (sleeves/hem cut off)
* Don't use blurred, shadow-heavy, or low-quality photos
### Model Shots
Model shots are recommended for garments that require drape, flow, and natural fit to be understood correctly. This includes outfits where the fabric falls in layers or where styling is an important part of the garment structure. Uploading a clear model image helps Ayna capture the silhouette, garment length, and overall look more accurately.
**DOs**
* Upload full-body or 3/4 body images where the garment is clearly visible
* Ensure the garment drape and flow is visible (especially sarees, dupattas, long dresses)
* Use clean backgrounds and good lighting
* Keep poses natural so the garment is not hidden
**DON'Ts**
* Avoid images where the garment is blocked by props or objects
* Don't upload images with heavy distractions, busy walls, or clutter
* Avoid sitting poses or cropped frames where the garment length is not visible
### Mannequin Shots
Mannequin shots are ideal when you want to show the garment in a structured way without a human model. They are highly recommended for outfits that need clear visibility of shape, layering, and fabric fall. Mannequins are best for garments like: Sarees, 3-piece suits (kurta set with dupatta), Lehenga sets, Dresses, Outfits with layers or heavy embroidery, etc.
**DOs**
* Upload mannequin images where the garment is properly fitted and centered
* Make sure the full garment is visible from top to bottom
* Keep the exact drape, fabric flow that you want to achieve (especially dupattas and drapes)
* Use a plain background and good lighting
**DON'Ts**
* Avoid mannequin images where the garment is incomplete or not properly arranged
* Don't upload images where the garment is folded, hanging unevenly, or messy
* Avoid cluttered backgrounds and poor lighting
## Views Required
Different types of garment views can be uploaded on Ayna, such as front, back, side, detailed shots, or any other available angle.
Upload clear images of each view. For example: Adding front and back views of the garment ensures accurate results in front and back poses. Ayna automatically detects and labels each uploaded view. If a view is incorrectly identified, you can modify it using the Custom View option.
### Front Views
The front view is required to capture the garment's main design, neckline, front pattern, and overall shape. It helps Ayna understand the primary silhouette and key styling elements visible from the front.
We have Left Front and Right Front views as well, these views are automatically tagged, and can be used to generate 45 degree angle images easily.
### Side Views
The side view helps Ayna understand sleeve structure, and all other kinds of side details. It is useful for heavy prints and details, utility clothing, embroidered fits and more.
### Back View
The back view is important to capture details like cuts, seams, collars, closures, and prints that may differ from the front. Uploading it ensures better accuracy and avoids incorrect results.
### Detailed View
Upload a clear, high-resolution close-up of the garment's details and label it as Detailed View on Ayna. Lock the image before proceeding further.
The Detailed View will not get AI generated on Ayna; the same uploaded image will be included or retained in the final photoshoot output without using additional credits. This ensures all views, including detailed shots, are delivered together in a single folder for streamlined download and export to websites.
## Common Styling Mistakes
To get the best results on Ayna, your garment images must clearly show the product's shape, structure, and details. Styling mistakes like folds, overlapping parts, wrong angles, or busy backgrounds make it difficult for Ayna to detect the garment correctly. These issues often lead to inaccurate silhouettes, missing details, or distorted outputs. Some of the common styling mistakes to avoid are:
1. **Wrong Angle:** Avoid tilted or dramatic angles. Straight, centered shots maintain correct proportions and structure.
2. **Busy Background:** Avoid cluttered backgrounds. A clean, plain backdrop keeps the garment clear and well-defined.
3. **Folded or Broken Prints:** Wrinkled or folded printed fabrics can distort patterns and misplace design elements.
4. **Creased / Wrinkled Garments:** Heavy creases hide structure and affect overall garment clarity. Smooth, ironed garments work best.
5. **Hidden Waist Detail:** Covered waistlines (by hands, drapes, or folds) affect length and fit accuracy.
6. **Multiple Garments in One Frame:** Avoid overlapping garments in a single image. Upload one clear garment per frame.
### Examples That Affect Output Quality
Below are common issues and how they impact Ayna's output:
**Image A — Dupatta Visible from the Sides**
When the dupatta is visible from the front sides, it blends into the garment structure. This can result in incorrect sleeve shapes or extra fabric appearing around the arms in the final output.
**Fix:** Place the dupatta behind or style it so it does not resemble sleeves.
**Image B — Dupatta Covering the Sleeves**
If the dupatta covers the sleeves, the sleeve structure becomes unclear. This can lead to the generated outfit appearing sleeveless or incorrectly shaped.
**Fix:** Ensure sleeves are fully visible and not covered by the dupatta.
**Image C — Garment Type Confusion**
Sleeveless tube or corset-style garments without clear structure can appear undefined. This may result in added layers or sleeve elements in the output.
**Fix:** Use mannequin or model shots to clearly define the garment shape.
**Image D — Extra Folds on Sleeves**
Folded sleeves distort the actual sleeve shape and replicated as unintended design elements in the final result.
**Fix:** Lay the garment fully open and smooth so sleeves are clearly visible.
**Image E — Creases and Unrefined Draping**
Wrinkles, creases, or poorly arranged drapes affect garment clarity. These imperfections can carry into the generated output, making the final look appear unrefined.
**Fix:** Steam and neatly drape the garment before photographing.
## Images That Need Special Care
Certain garment types and image formats require extra attention to ensure smooth processing and accurate results. Images with transparent fabrics, sensitive body areas, or close-up framing of children may need to be uploaded differently. These garments are fully supported on Ayna — they just need to be photographed in the right format (mannequin, flat-lay, or properly styled model shots). Here are the key categories to keep in mind:
### Sheer / Transparent Garments (Net, Mesh, Organza, Lace)
Sheer garments can be difficult to detect accurately because the garment boundaries are unclear, and may get flagged by AI safety filters.
**Recommended:** Upload these as a mannequin shot or full model shot with their respective inners or undergarment.
### Lingerie, Undergarments & Bikini Sets
Lingerie or bikini images on real models may be flagged as sensitive content and generation will not proceed.
**Recommended:** Upload these on a mannequin or as a flat-lay for accurate results. Structured one-piece garments can be put on hangers as well.
### Kids Garments Close-Ups
Close-up frames may be flagged by AI safety systems and can interrupt processing. Always use mid-length or full-length shots that clearly show the garment.
**Recommended:** Upload the garment separately on a mannequin, flat-lay, or as a full garment shot.
# Intro to Guidelines
Source: https://docs.getayna.com/guidelines/intro
This guide covers everything you need to get the best results from Ayna - from preparing your garments and setting up your shoot, to uploading, generating, and downloading your final images.
We've organized the workflow into **4 stages:**
1. [Preparation Stage](/guidelines/preparation) — Supported garment categories, clicking methods, and camera settings
2. [Input & Upload Guidelines](/guidelines/input-upload) — Garment preparation, required views, styling mistakes to avoid
3. [Using Ayna Studio](/guidelines/using-studio) — Upload formats, garment categories, and generating photoshoots
4. [Post-Production & Download](/guidelines/post-production) — Image refinement, marketplace variations, and downloading
Each stage covers a specific part of using Ayna — whether you're shooting a single sample or preparing a full seasonal catalog. Following these guidelines helps reduce re-generation and get the best output on the first pass.
# Post-Production & Download
Source: https://docs.getayna.com/guidelines/post-production
Now that Ayna has generated your photoshoot, you can refine your images, apply marketplace-specific cropping, reorder and organize your files, and finally download your outputs for use across platforms.
## Image Refinement
For a detailed walkthrough of image refinement, see: [Refine Image](/how-tos/refine-image)
## Marketplace Variations
Once your photoshoot is generated in a custom size, you can instantly create marketplace-specific variations such as Myntra, Nykaa Fashion, Flipkart, and more. Select the desired marketplace to crop your images in the exact ratio supported by them and save changes. All variations can be viewed under the 'photoshoot' section.
This eliminates the need for manual resizing or cropping. All marketplace versions are automatically saved under the same photoshoot, and you can select and download them together in a single folder.
To use this feature seamlessly, we recommend creating your initial images in the Amazon (1:1) ratio so that images can easily be cropped without missing out on any details.
## Reordering of Images
After your images are generated, you can rearrange them directly within the Photoshoot section. Simply drag and reposition the images to set your preferred sequence. For example, front view first, followed by side views, detail shots, and back view.
This ensures your images are saved and downloaded in the correct order, eliminating the need for manual rearrangement later.
## Naming and Foldering
You can name your folders or images before uploading them to Ayna, or upload them directly and rename them later from the **'Product'** tab. The photoshoot name will reflect the same folder name, and when you download the images, they will be saved using that name for easy identification.
## Downloading
To download your images, select the desired marketplace platform from the **Platform** option. All generated marketplace variations (such as Amazon, Myntra, etc.) will be displayed.
Select your images, and download them in **PNG or JPG** format. The images will be saved in a folder with the same photoshoot name for easy organization.

That's it! Follow these guidelines to get the best output possible. If you have any doubts, feel free to contact us at [studio.support@getayna.com](mailto:studio.support@getayna.com) or [book a demo](https://www.getayna.com/book-a-demo) with us.
# Preparation Stage
Source: https://docs.getayna.com/guidelines/preparation
Before you start generating on Ayna, there are a few things to get right. This section covers which garment categories Ayna supports and how to set up your camera for clear, high-quality inputs.
## What You Can Shoot on Ayna
Ayna supports a wide range of garment categories. You can shoot and generate outfits for multiple segments, including **Men's wear, Women's wear, and Kids wear**, in both **ethnic and western styles**. This makes it easy for brands to use Ayna for different product categories under one platform.
### Women: Western Wear
### Women: Ethnic Wear
### Men: Western Wear
### Men: Ethnic Wear
### Kidswear: Girl
### Kidswear: Boy
Ayna also supports custom garment styles beyond the categories shown above. If you have specific requirements or would like to check compatibility for your brand's unique styles, feel free to reach out to our team at [studio.support@getayna.com](mailto:studio.support@getayna.com).
## Recommended Clicking Methods
While Ayna supports a wide range of garment categories, the quality of the final AI output depends heavily on how the garment is prepared and photographed before upload. Certain garment types like sarees or heavy detailing, require specific input formats to achieve the best results. Refer to the guidelines below before proceeding with your shoot.
### Sarees
To achieve accurate drape and full prints in AI results, the input image must clearly show the full drape, pleats, borders, and fall in a well-arranged format.
**DOs**
* Upload sarees properly draped on a mannequin or worn by a model
* Ensure pleats, pallu, and borders are clearly visible
* Keep the fabric neatly arranged and wrinkle-free
**DON'Ts**
* Avoid crumpled or folded fabric shots
* Do not upload small or incomplete flatlays
### Flowy Dresses / Fluid Garments
Flowy garments such as Dresses, Gowns, Anarkalis, or flared outfits require clear visibility of their fall and flare. The fabric should be neatly arranged to show how the garment drapes naturally.
**DOs**
* Use neatly draped mannequin or on-human images
* Ensure the full flare, sleeves and tie-up details are visible (spread properly in flatlay if needed)
* Upload ironed, wrinkle-free garments
**DON'Ts**
* Avoid crumpled or unironed fabrics
* Do not upload incomplete or cropped views
* Avoid poses where sleeves or important details are hidden
### Heavy Detailing
While a plain, basic pair of pants can be uploaded using simple front and back flat-lay images, garments like cargos, utility pants, and detailed trims that include side pockets, zippers, or other structural elements need additional angles to capture the full design accurately.
**DOs**
* Upload mannequin or on-human images with all visible side angles to show pockets, and other side/back details
* Keep the garment properly shaped and wrinkle-free
**DON'Ts**
* Avoid single flatlay images that hide side detailing
* Do not crop out pockets or side seams
* Avoid unclear or shadow-heavy images
## Camera Settings
Ayna's AI relies on the quality of your input images to generate accurate results. Poor lighting, blur, or busy backgrounds can cause the AI to misread garment details, affecting the final output. Keep these essentials in mind:
* **Shoot at the highest resolution your device supports. Ayna accepts images from 1K (1024x1024) up to 8K (8192x8192)** — higher resolution captures fabric texture and detailing more accurately.
* Use consistent, even lighting. Harsh shadows or mixed light can cause the AI to misinterpret garment colors and silhouette edges.
* Keep the entire garment in frame — no cropping at sleeves, hemlines, or collars. The AI needs to see the full garment structure to generate it accurately.
* Use a plain, uncluttered background (white or neutral). Busy backgrounds make it harder for the AI to separate the garment from its surroundings.
# Using Ayna Studio
Source: https://docs.getayna.com/guidelines/using-studio
This section walks you through uploading garments and generating photoshoots on Ayna — from supported file formats, to choosing the right garment category, to running your first generation.
## Basic Upload Guidelines
These are some upload guidelines that need to be followed for every image, otherwise Ayna might not process your input image:
* Recommended resolution: **1K (1024 x 1024) to 8K (8192 x 8192)**
* Maximum file size: **15 MB per image**
* Best format: **PNG**
* Also supported: **JPG, JPEG, and WEBP**
## Single or Bulk Uploading
1. **Single Product Upload:** Upload one product at a time by dragging and dropping multiple images of the same garment (up to 10 images per product).
2. **Multiple Product Upload:** You can upload multiple folders of garments where each folder contains images of one product, grouped under the same garment category.
## Garment Categories and Examples
Once you click on **Start a Photoshoot**, you can select the segment — Men, Women, Boys, Girls, or Baby. Ayna has 4 main garment categories: **Top Wear, Bottom Wear, Full Body,** or **Top + Bottom (Set)**.
Each category is designed to match the garment structure correctly. Here's what each option includes and when to select it.
### Top Wear
After selecting the segment (Men, Women, Boys, Girls, or Baby), choose **Top Wear** for garments such as Tops, T-shirts, Shirts, Kurtis, Sweatshirts, and similar upper-body styles.
This category is suitable for any garment worn only on the upper half of the body. Bottoms and accessories can be later chosen from Ayna's style library. Before uploading the images, make sure to select **'Top Wear'** and choose fit styles after uploading the images.
Top wear supports flat-lay, hanger shots, mannequin, and model shots. However, if the garment has **heavy detailing**, it is recommended to upload mannequin or model images with side views for better structural clarity.
### Bottom Wear
Choose **Bottom Wear** for garments such as Pants, Denims, Cargos, Skirts, Shorts, Dhotis, and similar lower-body styles. This category is suitable for any garment worn only on the lower half of the body. Top-wear and accessories can be later selected from Ayna's style library. Before uploading the images, make sure to select **'Bottom Wear'** and choose fit styles after uploading the images.
Bottom wear works well with flat-lay and mannequin formats. For garments with side pockets, cargo panels, flaps, or utility details, include **side-angle views or upload on mannequin/model** to capture full structure.
### Full Body
Choose **Full Body** for garments such as sarees, dresses, long gowns, jumpsuits, or even coordinated 3-piece sets. This category is suitable for outfits that cover both the upper and lower body as a complete look. Before uploading the images, make sure to select **'Full Body'** and choose fit styles after uploading the images.
Full-body garments like sarees, gowns, and dresses require clear silhouette visibility. For draped or flowy styles, **mannequin or model shots** are recommended to properly capture fall, pleats, and structure.
### Pair (Top + Bottom)
Choose **Top + Bottom (Set)** for coordinated outfits such as co-ord sets, kurti with pants, tracksuits, or any matching top-and-bottom combination uploaded together. This category is suitable when both pieces are intended to be generated as a complete set.
Top-Bottom should be uploaded together in one frame. Ensure both pieces are clearly visible and not overlapping. For detailed sets, **mannequin or model** shots are preferred. **Hanger images** also work well for structured sets.

# Bulk Process Images
Source: https://docs.getayna.com/how-tos/bulk-process
Bulk Processing helps you manage photoshoots at scale by working on multiple products in one flow. In this, you can do two things: use **Bulk Upload** to upload multiple product images at once, and use **Bulk Generate** to create photoshoots for multiple products in a single action. You can use either feature on its own or combine both to speed up catalog preparation and photoshoot creation.
## How to Bulk Upload your Images
This feature allows you to **upload products in bulk.** Instead of uploading each product one by one, you can prepare your entire product catalog in a single flow, saving time and speeding up large-scale content creation.
### Step 1: Upload products
Go to the **Products** section and upload product images from your computer.
* Choose **Single Product Upload** to upload multiple images for one product
* Choose **Multiple Product Upload** to upload folders, where each folder represents a different product
This step prepares your products for bulk photoshoot generation.
### Step 2: Review uploaded products
Once uploaded, all products will appear in your Products library. Each product is now ready to be selected for photoshoot creation.
## How to Bulk Generate Photoshoots
Bulk Generation allows you to **create photoshoots for multiple products at the same time**. Once your product images are uploaded and ready, you can select several products and generate photoshoots in one action—eliminating the need to process each product individually. This feature is designed for **high-volume workflows**, helping teams generate consistent, high-quality visuals across large catalogs while saving significant time and effort.
### Step 1: Select products for bulk generation
Select one or more products from the list that you want to generate photoshoots for. You can select multiple products at once to process them together.
### Step 2: Create photoshoots in bulk
Click **Create Photoshoot** to start generating photoshoots for all selected products simultaneously. Each selected product will be processed as an individual photoshoot, allowing you to generate visuals at scale in a single action.
# Create a Custom Model
Source: https://docs.getayna.com/how-tos/custom-model
Creating a Custom Model allows you to generate photoshoots using a model that matches your brand's preferred look and identity. Instead of relying only on pre-built models, you can create your own model for more consistent results across campaigns, collections, and product drops. This helps you maintain a cohesive visual style while saving time on repeated model selection.
Follow these steps to create your own custom model in just a few clicks.
## Step 1: Go to Assets and Create Model
Go to the **Assets** section on the left pane and click on **Create Model** to start generating a custom model for your photoshoot.
## Step 2: Select Model Identity
Choose the model's **identity attributes**, including gender, age, ethnicity, body type, and skin tone. These details help define the overall look of your model.
## Step 3: Choose Model Appearance
Customize the model's **appearance** by selecting hair length, hair type, hair color, and other visual features. Once done, click **Proceed** to generate your model.
You will then be prompted to enter a **Model Name** and an optional **Model Description** to identify your model. Once done, click **Start Generation** to create your custom model.
A custom model is generated and added to your library, ready to be selected and used in photoshoots.
# Create Custom Templates
Source: https://docs.getayna.com/how-tos/custom-template
## What are Templates?
Templates are pre-defined photoshoot setups that help you create consistent visuals at scale. You can choose from our library of **150+ pre-saved templates** or create your own **Custom Templates** for different garment categories, each with a fixed combination of models, poses, backgrounds, and styling.
## Benefits of Custom Templates
* **Saves time:** Avoid selecting models, poses, and backdrops manually for every garment.
* **Ensures consistency:** Maintain the same visual identity across SKUs.
* **Brand-specific output:** Create unique looks aligned with your brand language.
* **Flexible editing:** Modify template elements anytime as your needs evolve.
## Credit Consumption of Templates
Templates do not have a fixed cost, Credits are consumed based on the **number of poses added**:
* **1 pose = 5 credits,** so if you wish to create 4 poses in a template = 20 credits. There is no limit to the number of poses in a template.
You can edit existing templates without additional charges, However, adding new poses will consume **5 credits per pose**. Other elements like model, footwear, or accessories can be adjusted without additional template charges.
## Step 1: Select Your Product
Go to the **Assets** section and select **Templates**. Click on Create Template, select the **segment** and **garment category** (e.g., Women – Top Wear), select your product from the library or upload product images (front/back views).
Once the product images are selected, click **Next Step: Select Models** to continue.
## Step 2: Select Model, Background and Poses
**A) Choose Model -** Filter by Gender, Age, Ethnicity, Body Type, or Hair Type and select the best fit. The model will appear in Input References.
**B) Choose Background -** Pick from Indoor, Outdoor, Studio, or Catalogue, or upload/paste your own images that complements your brand theme.
**C) Choose Poses -** Select up to 10 poses using All, Front, Back, or Side filters. Chosen poses will appear in Output Slots.
Once you have finalized your selection, click on **Select Style** to continue.
## Step 3: Select Style
Enhance your look by adding matching items such as **Accessories, Footwear, and Bottom Wear**.
* **Bottom Wear:** Keep the original garment, upload a custom pair (front & back), or choose from the available library options. This feature is available only when you select **top wear.**
* **Footwear:** Select shoes from the library or upload custom footwear to match your style.
* **Accessories:** Choose from categories like Necklace, Earrings, Ring, or Bracelet to complement the outfit.
You can switch between **Library** and **Custom** (where available) to upload your own assets.
Selected items will appear in the **Input References** section on the right.
Once you have finalized your selections, click **Next Step: Review** to continue.
## Step 4: Review & Name Your Template
Review all your selected details, including **Model, Background, Poses, and Styles**, to ensure everything looks correct. You can also make changes if needed by clicking the **edit icon** next to each section.
Once you're satisfied, click **Create Template**, enter a suitable name for the product category so it's easy to find later, and then click **Create Template** again to proceed.
Your reusable template is now ready! You can use it anytime from the **Asset** section to quickly create consistent product photoshoots.

## Step 1: Choose Your Product & Photoshoot Specifications
Click on **"Start a Photoshoot"** on the home page to begin creating your virtual photoshoot. Select the garment category and gender. Ayna also lets you generate **marketplace-ready** images for platforms like Myntra, Nykaa Fashion, Amazon, and even custom ratios, eliminating the need for manual resizing or cropping.
Upload images of your products, or choose from Ayna's in-built sample products to explore the platform and try different garment options like — fit type → slim, regular, relaxed, or oversized, tucked-in or tucked-out styles. After uploading your garment images, you can either select a template or proceed manually.
## Step 2: Choose your Photoshoot Design
After your input is processed successfully, you need to choose your photoshoot design, including poses, models, backgrounds, etc. There are 2 ways to proceed:
### Method (a): Proceed with Templates
Templates offer pre-saved inputs with predefined models, backdrops, and poses, which you can review before generating any images. You can choose a template of your choice, either from our pre-built library of 150+, or your own custom templates, and proceed to the Review Page. On the review page, you can view all pre-saved inputs, including model poses, styles, and accessories. You can customise any of these options, and once satisfied, click **Generate** to create your images.
### Method (b): Choose your Photoshoot Design (Manual)
Using pre-saved templates is optional. You can also proceed with your photoshoot manually, gaining complete creative freedom over your photoshoot.

You can also create your own custom model if you have specific requirements.
After selecting your model, choose a background. Ayna offers a wide range of options, from clean studio backdrops to outdoor locations, allowing you to match the mood and garment category. You can again upload your custom background to have a more personalised shoot.
Then, you need to select poses from our vast pose library. Select the desired poses for your photoshoot. Choose from multiple angles and close-up options, including front, back, side, and full-body shots, based on the garment style.
The last stage is styling: you can choose a pairing garment from Ayna's Style Library or upload a garment of your own, especially for top-wear styling.
You can also select footwear from the available options or upload a new one to complete the look for your photoshoot.
Lastly, you can select accessories for detailed styling. We provide a huge jewellery library to enhance your overall photoshoot.
After adding all inputs, click **Review** to proceed to the final steps.
## Step 3: Review your Selections
Once you proceed either manually or with templates, you will land on the final review page. Here, you can align on all the inputs and make last-minute changes, if any.
Voilà! Your photoshoot is ready. Click on **Photoshoots** to view your final outputs and reorder them as per your requirements.

# Add Infographics to Your Images
Source: https://docs.getayna.com/infographics/add-infographics
Once you have a template you like, adding infographics takes just a few clicks: choose your images, pick a template, match a design to each image, add your text and click **Generate**. Each infographic is created as a new image right next to the photo it was made from, so your originals stay exactly as they are.
Follow these steps to add infographics to images of one product. To add infographics to many products at once, see [Add Infographics in Bulk](/infographics/bulk-infographics).
## Before you start
* Infographics can be added to finished images. Images that are still being generated or edited can be used once they're done.
* You need a plan that includes infographics (**Silver**, **Gold**, **Platinum** or **Enterprise**), and the **Admin**, **Member** or **QC Reviewer** role.
## Step 1: Choose your images
You can start from one image, or from several images of the same product:
* **One image:** Click the **⋮** menu on the image and choose **Add infographic**. The menu shows how many credits one infographic costs on your plan.
* **Several images:** Open the product's page, tick the images you want (up to **10** at a time), then click the **infographics icon** in the top bar. On a computer, it shows how many images you've selected.
* **An archived image:** Archived images don't have a **⋮** menu, so click the infographics icon on the image instead.
The **Add infographics** page opens with your images. It walks you through three steps, shown at the top: **Choose a template**, **Match your images** and **Add text & create**.
## Step 2: Choose a template
Pick a template from **Your templates** or the **Starter collection**, or search for one by name.
Don't have the right template yet? Click **Create template**, add your designs and click **Save & use template**. You'll come straight back here with your new template selected. See [Create Infographic Templates](/infographics/create-templates).
To switch templates later, click **Change** next to the template's name at the top of the page (on a phone, tap **Change template**). Switching clears your matches but keeps any text you've added.
## Step 3: Match a design to each image
Each image needs a design from your template. Studio never matches them automatically, so you're always in control of which look goes where.
* Click an image (or its **Choose design** button), then click the design you want in the panel of designs on the right. On a phone, the designs open in a drawer.
* On a computer, you can also drag a design straight onto an image.
* To use the same design for every image, click **Use one design for all**, choose a design, then click **Apply Design N to all**.
* To change a match, click **Change**. To remove one, click the **×**. **Clear matches** removes them all.
Images you leave unmatched are simply skipped, and you're not charged for them.
**Why is an image greyed out?** Some images can't take an infographic right now, and the image shows why:
* **Still in progress:** The image is still being created.
* **Being edited:** The image is with our editing team.
* **Replaced by an edit:** An edited version has replaced this image. Use the edited image instead.
* **Photoshoot cancelled:** The photoshoot was cancelled.
* **No image yet:** The image doesn't have a file Studio can use yet.
* **Unsupported image type:** This kind of image can't take an infographic.
* **Already sent for generation:** You've already sent this image in this run.
Deleted images don't appear on the page at all.
## Step 4: Add your text (optional)
Click **Add text · optional** on an image to tell Studio what its infographic should say, for example "V neckline, button front, wide-leg silhouette". You can write up to **1,000 characters** for each image. Leave it blank to highlight visible details instead, or to use your product text if you add some (see below).
Studio keeps names, numbers and units as you type them, so double-check spellings and sizes, and check them again on the finished infographic. For more ideas, see [Writing text](/infographics/tips#writing-text).
### Product text
If you see a **Product text** button above your images, you can write one text for the whole product instead of writing it image by image:
* Click **Product text** and add what's true of the product, such as fabric, fit, care and sizes. You can write up to **20,000 characters**.
* If your product has a base sheet, click **Import from base sheet** to fill it in automatically, then edit it as you like.
* When you create, each image without its own text gets the details from your product text that suit it.
* An image's own text replaces the product text for that image, so include any product details you still want on it.
Product text is only used for this run. It isn't saved to your product, and it doesn't cost anything extra.
## Step 5: Check the cost and generate
The bar at the bottom of the page shows how many images you've matched, the credits per image on your plan and the credits you have available.
When you're ready, click **Generate**. The button shows exactly what you're creating and what it costs, for example **Generate 2 infographics · 20 credits**. Credits are deducted as soon as you click; there's no second confirmation step.
If you don't have enough credits, the bar shows how many more you need, with a link to **Add credits**.
## What happens next
Studio confirms that your infographics are on their way and takes you back to where you started. Each infographic appears next to its image as it finishes. See [Track and Use Your Infographics](/infographics/track-and-use) to follow their progress.
That's it! Your infographics are being created.
## Your work is saved as you go
If you reload the page, or step away to create a template, Studio keeps your template, matches and text. (Saving a new template selects it, which clears your matches but keeps your text.)
If you leave and later open **Add infographics** again for the same images in the same browser tab, Studio shows **Picked up where you left off**. To clear everything and begin again, click **Start over** there.
Your work is saved in your current browser tab only, so it's cleared when you close the tab.
## If your connection drops while sending
While your infographics are being sent, your matches and text are locked, and your browser warns you before you leave the page. If something interrupts the sending, just click **Generate** again. Anything that already went through is never charged twice.
Images marked **Unconfirmed** were sent, but Studio couldn't confirm they arrived. When you click **Generate**, they're sent again exactly as they were, and you're only charged for the ones that didn't go through the first time. While there are unconfirmed images, the button shows the cost as **up to** a number of credits, and you can't switch templates.
You can also click **Start a new run** in the bottom bar. It unlocks the unconfirmed images and keeps your template, matches and text, and your next **Generate** sends them in a new run. Unconfirmed images may already have gone through, so any that did are created, and charged, again as new infographics.
# Add Infographics in Bulk
Source: https://docs.getayna.com/infographics/bulk-infographics
Bulk lets you add infographics to many products in one go, right from the **Photoshoots** page. Instead of matching a design to every single image, you match a design to each **position**, and it's used for that image across all the products you've selected.
Bulk infographics are available on the **Platinum** plan and on Enterprise plans that include bulk generation. On other plans, the infographics icon on the **Photoshoots** page offers an upgrade, even for a single product. You can still add infographics to each product from its own page.
## Step 1: Select your products
Go to **Photoshoots**, tick the products you want (up to **1,000** at a time), then click the **infographics icon** in the top bar. On a computer, it shows how many products you've selected.
## Step 2: Choose a template
Pick a template from **Your templates** or the **Starter collection**, just as you would for a single product. See [Choose a template](/infographics/add-infographics#step-2-choose-a-template).
## Step 3: Match a design to each position
Your images are grouped into positions:
* **Position 1** holds the first image of every selected product, **Position 2** the second image, and so on.
* Images are counted in the order they appear on each product's page.
* Only each product's first **10** finished images are included, so there are up to 10 positions. Archived images and existing infographics aren't counted.
Click **Choose design** on a position, then click the design you want in the panel of designs. On a computer, you can also drag a design onto a position. The design is used for every image in that position. To use one design everywhere, click **Use one design for all**.
Each position shows a few sample images and how many images will use its design. Positions you leave unmatched are skipped, and you're not charged for them. If an image in a position can't take an infographic right now, it's skipped and counted as unavailable.
## Step 4: Add your text (optional)
* **Text for one image:** On a position, click **View all images & add text**, then choose an image to add text for that product.
* **Product text:** If you see a **Product text** button, click it to write one text per product. Search for a product, or click **Import all** to fill in every product that has a base sheet and no text yet.
Text works the same way as for a single product: it's optional, an image's own text replaces its product text, and product text isn't saved to your products. See [Add your text](/infographics/add-infographics#step-4-add-your-text-optional).
## Step 5: Generate
Check the totals in the bar at the bottom of the page and click **Generate**. Big runs are sent in batches, and the button shows how many images have been sent so far, for example **Starting 250 of 1,000…**. Keep the tab open until sending finishes; your browser warns you if you try to leave.
Large runs share a queue with other brands, so the last infographics in a big run can take several hours to finish. Each infographic appears next to its image as soon as it's done, and any that can't be created are refunded automatically.
That's it! See [Track and Use Your Infographics](/infographics/track-and-use) to follow your run.
# Create Infographic Templates
Source: https://docs.getayna.com/infographics/create-templates
A template gives your infographics their look. It's a set of reference designs: images with labels, callouts or layouts you love. When you add infographics, you match one of these designs to each photo, and Studio follows its layout, lettering and colours. Your product stays the focus, and you choose the text when you create.
Infographic templates are different from the photoshoot templates in **Assets** → **Templates**. Photoshoot templates set up models, poses and backgrounds for new photoshoots. Infographic templates style the infographics you add to finished images.
## Starter collection and your templates
The Infographics library has two collections:
* **Starter collection:** Ready-made templates from Ayna that you can use straight away. Open one to explore its designs. Starter templates are view-only; to change one, make a copy.
* **Your templates:** Templates made by your team. They're shared with everyone in your organization, across all its brands, so your whole team can use the same looks.
Use **Search templates** to find a template by name in the collection you're viewing. Creating, editing and deleting templates is available to team members with the **Admin**, **Member** or **QC Reviewer** role.
## Step 1: Start a new template
Click **Infographics** in the left sidebar, then click **Create template**. You can also click the **Make it yours** tile in **Your templates**.
## Step 2: Name your template
Under **Name your template**, enter a name your team will recognise, such as "The everyday edit". You can change the name later.
## Step 3: Add your inspiration
Drag your reference images onto the board, or click **browse files** to choose them. On a phone, tap **Choose reference images**.
* Use **JPG, PNG or WebP** images of up to **20 MB** each.
* A template holds **1 to 10** reference designs. The counter (for example, **3/10**) shows how many you've added.
* Each image becomes a numbered design: **Design 1**, **Design 2** and so on. You'll use these numbers when you match designs to your photos.
To arrange your designs:
* **Reorder:** On a computer, drag a design to a new spot. On a phone, use the arrows.
* **Preview:** Click the expand icon on a design to take a closer look at its layout, colours and callouts.
* **Remove:** Click the **×** on a design.
* **Retry:** If an image fails to upload, click **Retry upload**.
Not sure which images to use? See [Choosing reference designs](/infographics/tips#choosing-reference-designs).
## Step 4: Save your template
Click **Save template**. The button turns on once your template has a name and at least one design, and all your images have finished uploading without errors. If it's greyed out, the checklist in the panel next to your designs shows what's missing.
Your template now appears in **Your templates**, ready to use. If you click **Cancel** before saving, Studio asks whether to discard your changes. If you leave another way, for example through the sidebar or your browser's Back button, your unsaved name and uploaded references are kept in this browser tab and come back when you open that template again, or click **Create template** again for a new one you hadn't saved yet. Images that were still uploading, or failed, aren't kept.
## Copy a starter template
To customise a starter template, open it and click **Make a copy**, or choose **Make a copy** from its **⋯** menu. The copy is added to **Your templates**, with "copy" at the end of its name, and you can rename it and add, remove or reorder its designs.
## Edit, copy or delete your templates
Open the **⋯** menu on one of your templates:
* **Edit template:** Rename it, or add, remove and reorder its designs. Click **Save template** when you're done.
* **Make a copy:** Start a new template from this one.
* **Delete:** Remove the template from the library for everyone in your organization.
Editing or deleting a template never changes the infographics you've already created with it.
## Templates are free
Creating, copying and editing templates doesn't use any credits, on any plan. You're only charged when you create infographics. See [Infographics Plans & Credits](/infographics/plans-and-credits).
That's it! Your template is ready. Next, [add infographics to your images](/infographics/add-infographics).
# Infographics FAQs
Source: https://docs.getayna.com/infographics/faqs
## Getting started
**What is an infographic in Ayna Studio?**\
An infographic is a new version of your product photo with labels, callouts and a layout added, styled after a reference design you choose. It helps shoppers see a product's details at a glance. Learn more in the [Introduction to Infographics](/infographics/introduction).
**Does adding an infographic change my original photo?**\
No. Each infographic is a new image, placed right next to the photo it was made from. Your original stays exactly as it was.
**Can I add more than one infographic to an image?**\
Yes. You can add one infographic to an image in each run, and as many runs as you like. You can even add an infographic to an image that's already an infographic.
**Why don't I see Add infographic on an image?**\
The option appears on finished images, so wait until the image has finished generating or being edited. It also isn't available to team members with the **Editor** role. If your plan doesn't include infographics, you'll still see the option, and Studio offers an upgrade when you try to create one.
**Can I use Infographics on my phone?**\
Yes. Tap **Assets** in the bottom navigation, then open the **Infographics** tab to see your templates. On a phone you match designs by tapping; dragging designs onto images is available on a computer.
**Can I cancel an infographic that's in progress?**\
No. Once an infographic is on its way, it can't be cancelled. If it gets stuck, Studio stops it and refunds your credits automatically.
***
## Templates
**How are infographic templates different from photoshoot templates?**\
Photoshoot templates (in **Assets** → **Templates**) set up models, poses and backgrounds for new photoshoots. Infographic templates are sets of reference designs that style the infographics you add to finished images.
**Can I edit a starter template?**\
Starter templates are view-only. Click **Make a copy** to add a copy to **Your templates**, then edit it however you like.
**What happens to my infographics if I edit or delete a template?**\
Nothing. Infographics you've already created stay exactly as they are.
**How many designs can a template have?**\
Between 1 and 10. Each design can be a JPG, PNG or WebP image of up to 20 MB.
**Do templates cost credits?**\
No. Creating, copying and editing templates is free on every plan.
***
## Text
**Do I have to add text?**\
No, text is optional. If you leave an image's text blank, it uses your product text if you've written some. Otherwise, the infographic highlights the details visible in the photo.
**Will my text appear exactly as I typed it?**\
Studio keeps names, numbers and units as you write them, so check your spellings and sizes before you click **Generate**, and again on the finished infographic.
**What is product text?**\
Product text is one text for all of a product's images, such as its fabric, fit, care and sizes. Each image without its own text gets the details that suit it. If a product has a base sheet, you can import the text from it. When product text is available, you'll see a **Product text** button on the **Add infographics** page.
**Is product text saved to my product?**\
No. Product text is only used for that run, and it doesn't cost anything extra.
**Can I change the text on a finished infographic?**\
Not directly. Add a new infographic with new text, or use **Edit with AI** or **Send for edits**.
***
## Credits
**How much does an infographic cost?**\
**20 credits** per image on Silver, **15 credits** on Gold and **10 credits** on Platinum. Enterprise plans use the rate in their contract. See [Infographics Plans & Credits](/infographics/plans-and-credits).
**When are credits deducted?**\
When you click **Generate**. The button shows the total before you click.
**Do I get my credits back if an infographic fails?**\
Yes, automatically. A failed infographic shows **Your credits were refunded.**
**Does Retry cost credits?**\
Yes. A retry is a new attempt, charged at your plan's current price, which the **Retry** button shows. If it fails, it's refunded too.
**Why does the Generate button say "up to" a number of credits?**\
Some of your images are marked **Unconfirmed**: they were sent, but Studio couldn't confirm they arrived. They're sent again, and you're only charged for the ones that didn't go through the first time.
***
## Troubleshooting
**Why is an image greyed out on the Add infographics page?**\
That image can't take an infographic right now, and it shows why, for example **Still in progress**, **Being edited** or **Replaced by an edit**. Wait for it to finish, or use the edited version of the image.
**Why did my infographic fail?**\
Occasionally an infographic can't be created, for example when an automated content check stops it (this happens more often with innerwear). Your credits are refunded automatically. You can click **Retry**, try a different design, or contact us at [studio.support@getayna.com](mailto:studio.support@getayna.com) if it keeps happening.
**My infographic has been waiting for a long time.**\
Large runs share a queue, so infographics can wait a while before they start. If one gets stuck, Studio stops it and refunds your credits automatically, and you can retry it.
**What does "Unconfirmed" mean?**\
The image was sent, but Studio couldn't confirm it arrived, usually because the connection dropped. Click **Generate** to send it again. Anything that already went through isn't charged twice.
**I see "This template changed since you opened it."**\
A design was removed from the template while you were working. Check your matches, then click **Generate** again. Nothing was charged.
**I see "That template is no longer available."**\
The template was deleted while you were working. Choose another template and match your images again.
**I see "There's too much product text to send."**\
Shorten your product text, then click **Generate** again. Nothing was sent or charged.
**I see "This browser couldn't save…"**\
Studio saves your work in your browser as you go, and your browser's storage for this site is full or turned off. Free up space, then click **Generate** again.
**I left the page while my infographics were being sent.**\
They keep sending in the background, and Studio tells you how it went. If it says not all of them started, open **Add infographics** again for the same images or products, in the same browser tab: Studio picks up where you left off, and **Generate** sends the rest without charging twice for anything that already went through. If you closed the tab, your saved work is gone, so check which infographics were created before adding more: images you send again from a new tab are created, and charged, as new infographics.
**Can I flip an infographic?**\
No. Flipping would mirror the text, so it's turned off for infographics.
# Introduction to Infographics
Source: https://docs.getayna.com/infographics/introduction
Infographics turn your product photos into images that tell a story. Ayna Studio adds labels, callouts and layouts to your finished photos, in the style of reference designs you choose, so shoppers can see what makes a product special at a glance: the neckline, the fabric, the fit and all the little details.
## Why use infographics?
* **Show the details that sell:** Point out features like a V neckline, button details or a wide-leg silhouette right on the photo.
* **Stand out on marketplaces:** Add polished, informative images to your listings alongside your regular shots.
* **Keep your look consistent:** Use the same designs across your catalogue, so every product feels part of one brand.
* **Save design time:** No design tools or designers needed. Pick a design, add your text, and Studio does the rest.
## How it works
1. **Find your look:** Choose a starter template or upload your own inspiration. A template is a set of reference designs: images with labels, callouts or layouts you love.
2. **Match it to your images:** Pick a reference design for each image you want to add infographics to.
3. **Make the details shine:** Add your text, then create. Your originals stay saved.
Your original photo is never changed. Each infographic is created as a new image and placed right next to the photo it was made from.
## Good to know
* You can add one infographic to an image in each run, and as many as you like over time, even to an image that's already an infographic.
* Text is optional. Tell Studio what to say, or leave it blank.
* If an infographic can't be created, the credits for it are refunded automatically.
## Where to find Infographics
On a computer, click **Infographics** in the left sidebar (it's marked **NEW**). This is your template library, where you browse and create the looks you'll use. A short guide at the top of the library gives you a quick visual tour: **Hide guide** folds it away, and **How it works** brings it back.
On a phone or tablet, tap **Assets** in the bottom navigation, then open the **Infographics** tab.
You add infographics from your images: on a product's page, or, on Platinum and on Enterprise plans that include bulk generation, to many products at once from **Photoshoots**. The library is where you find and create the designs.
## Who can use Infographics
Infographics are available on the **Silver**, **Gold**, **Platinum** and **Enterprise** plans. Adding infographics to many products at once (bulk) is available on **Platinum** and on Enterprise plans that include bulk generation. See [Infographics Plans & Credits](/infographics/plans-and-credits) for what each plan costs.
Team members with the **Admin**, **Member** or **QC Reviewer** role can create templates and infographics. The **Editor** role can't.

Answers to common questions and fixes for common problems.
# Infographics Plans & Credits
Source: https://docs.getayna.com/infographics/plans-and-credits
Infographics use credits from your balance and are charged per image, so you always know what a run will cost before you start. Templates are free.
## Credits per infographic
Each infographic costs:
* **Silver:** **20 credits** per image
* **Gold:** **15 credits** per image
* **Platinum:** **10 credits** per image
Enterprise plans use the rate in your contract. Infographics aren't available on the free plan; Studio offers an upgrade if you try to create one.
Studio shows your plan's price before you create anything: next to **Add infographic** in an image's **⋮** menu, and on the **Generate** button.
## What's free
* Creating, copying and editing templates, on every plan.
* Product text, including importing it from a base sheet.
## Bulk infographics
Adding infographics to many products at once is available on **Platinum** and on Enterprise plans that include bulk generation. Bulk infographics cost the same per image as any other infographic.
## When you're charged
* Credits are deducted when you click **Generate**. The button shows the total first, for example **Generate 8 infographics · 120 credits** on Gold.
* You're only charged for images you've matched to a design. Unmatched images are skipped.
* If an image changed while the page was open (for example, it was sent for edits), it's skipped and you're not charged for it.
* If you don't have enough credits, the **Generate** button stays off until you add more.
## Refunds
Your credits are refunded automatically when:
* an infographic can't be created, or
* an infographic gets stuck and Studio stops it.
## Retrying
**Retry** on a failed infographic creates a new attempt, so it's charged again at your plan's current price, which the button shows. If the retry fails too, it's refunded as well.
## Other actions on infographics
Actions like **Edit with AI** and **Generate 4K** cost credits too. The **⋮** menu shows the standard price before you use them; Enterprise plans are charged their contract rate.
## Example
You select 8 images of a product on the Gold plan and match a design to each one. Your total is 8 × 15 = **120 credits**. If one of them can't be created, its **15 credits** are refunded automatically.
# Tips for Great Infographics
Source: https://docs.getayna.com/infographics/tips
Great infographics start with the right reference designs and clear, simple text. Use these tips to get results you'll love.
## Choosing reference designs
* **Pick designs you'd be proud to post:** A good reference is an image with labels, callouts or a layout you love. Studio follows its layout, lettering, colours and graphic style.
* **Don't worry about the words on the reference:** Studio takes the design from a reference, not its words: it's built to leave out the reference's own text, numbers, logos and brand names, and to say what you tell it to. If any slip through, fix them with **Edit with AI**.
* **Mix a few looks in one template:** For example, include one design for close-ups and another for full-length shots, then match each photo to the design that suits it.
* **Use clear, sharp references:** The clearer the reference, the easier it is to follow its design.
## Writing text
* **Keep it short and specific:** A few clear points work best, for example "V neckline, button front, wide-leg silhouette".
* **Check spellings, numbers and units:** Studio keeps names, numbers and units as you type them, so check them before you generate, and again on the result.
* **Stick to what shoppers want to know:** Leave out prices, tax codes, barcodes and internal codes.
* **Use product text for the whole product:** Put facts about the product, like fabric, fit, care and sizes, in **Product text**, and Studio spreads them across the product's images. Text you write for one image replaces the product text for that image, so include any product facts you still want on it.
* **Leave it blank when the photo says it all:** With no text and no product text, the infographic highlights the visible details.
## Before a big run
* **Test first:** Try a couple of designs on one or two images before sending a large run, so you know which design suits your catalogue best.
* **Check your credits:** The **Generate** button shows the total before you start. See [Infographics Plans & Credits](/infographics/plans-and-credits).
## Polishing your results
* Use **Edit with AI** for quick changes.
* Use **Send for edits** to have our editing team fine-tune an infographic.
* Not quite the look you wanted? Add another infographic with a different design. Your original photo is always kept.
# Track and Use Your Infographics
Source: https://docs.getayna.com/infographics/track-and-use
After you click **Generate**, each infographic appears as a new image right after the photo it was made from. Here's how to follow its progress, what to do if one fails, and everything you can do with your finished infographics.
## Follow the progress
While an infographic is waiting or being created, its card shows your photo with a status:
* **Waiting to start**, **Next in line** or **N ahead of yours:** Your infographic is in the queue.
* Steps such as **Reading the reference…**, **Sketching the layout…** and **Placing the callouts…**, with the time left: Your infographic is being designed.
Once it starts, an infographic usually takes a minute or two. Big runs wait in a queue first, so the last images in a large run can take longer.
Cards update on their own, so there's no need to refresh the page. When an infographic is ready, it's revealed right on its card.
You can't cancel an infographic once it's on its way.
## Find your infographics
Infographics sit right after the image they were made from and carry an **Infographic** badge. Hover over the badge to see which template was used.
To see only your infographics on a product's page, open the **Property** filter and choose **Infographic**.
## If an infographic fails
If an infographic can't be created, its card says **Couldn't create this infographic** and **Your credits were refunded.** The credits go back to your balance automatically.
To try again, click **Retry**. The button shows what a retry costs on your plan, and Studio uses the same design and text as before.
Retry creates a new attempt, so it uses credits again at your plan's current price. If the retry fails too, those credits are refunded as well.
If the original photo has changed since, for example because it was sent for edits, the infographic can't be retried. Add a new infographic from the current image instead.
If an infographic stays stuck for a long time, Studio stops it and refunds your credits automatically. If the same image keeps failing, try a different design or a different image, or contact us at [studio.support@getayna.com](mailto:studio.support@getayna.com).
## What you can do with a finished infographic
A finished infographic works like any other image in your photoshoot. From its card and its **⋮** menu, you can:
* **Download** it as a PNG or JPEG.
* **Create marketplace variation** to crop it for a marketplace.
* **Generate 4K**, on plans that include 4K (on Silver, it offers an upgrade). Infographics made from a 4K photo are already 4K.
* **Send for edits** to have our editing team polish it. Each infographic has its own edit allowance, separate from the photo it was made from.
* **Edit with AI** to make quick changes yourself.
* **Add infographic** to create another infographic from it.
* **View input & references** to see the design, the template and the text that were used. If you used product text, you'll see the text Studio wrote for this image.
* **Archive image** to hide it from your view.
Infographics are saved as high-quality PNG images at the same size as the photo they were made from.
## What isn't available for infographics
* **Flip image:** Flipping would mirror the text, so it's turned off for infographics.
* **Regenerate image:** To try a different look, add a new infographic with another design.
* **Changing the text:** An infographic's text can't be edited after it's created. Add a new infographic with new text, or use **Edit with AI** or **Send for edits**.
* **Cover images and catalogue videos:** Infographics aren't used as a product's cover image or in catalogue videos.
## Using infographics in marketplace listings
When you prepare a Myntra listing, infographics can only go in the **Additional Image 1** and **Additional Image 2** slots, so each listing can include up to **2** infographics.

# FAQs
Source: https://docs.getayna.com/overview/faqs
## Getting started
**How does Ayna Studio work?**\
Ayna uses AI to generate fashion photoshoots based on your input image and selected styling (backgrounds, models, poses, accessories, etc.). The output is designed to closely reflect the garment, pose, and details visible in your input. It is highly customisable while still being easy-to-use.
**What is Ayna best suited for?**\
Ayna works best for creating consistent, high-quality fashion images at scale. It's especially useful for catalogue, lifestyle, and campaign shoots where speed and consistency matter.
**What is Ayna not designed to do?**\
Ayna isn't meant for redesigning garments or inventing new details. It focuses on translating what you upload into clean, usable photoshoots. You can explore real images generated using Ayna that are live on marketplaces and client websites.

## Input images & setup
**How should I think about my input image when using Ayna?**\
Your input image acts as the visual reference for the AI. The clearer and more complete it is, the closer the output will be to what you expect.
**What kind of input image works best?**\
Clean flat-lay, mannequin, or on-model images with the garment clearly visible work best. Clear and well-framed inputs usually lead to more accurate results. Display all elements of the garment properly, and upload multiple product views so Ayna can give you a better output.
**Can Ayna adjust or improve garment details?**\
Ayna works by following the details shown in your input image. It can't directly change your input image and will try to retain as much detail as possible. For best results, make sure important elements like beadings, logos, or patterns are clearly visible in the upload.
***
## Outputs & accuracy
**Why do some garment details look different than expected?**\
This often comes down to how the garment appears in the input image. If certain details aren't clearly visible or are positioned differently in the input, the output may reflect that.
**Why might part of the garment be missing or look incomplete?**\
This can happen if the uploaded image and the selected generation setup don't fully align (e.g. uploading a top while selecting a full outfit or bottom wear).
**Why does the output stay close to the input image?**\
Ayna treats your input image as the primary reference. This keeps the output consistent and aligned with your original garment and prevents the AI from hallucination.
**How accurately does Ayna handle fine details?**\
Accuracy depends on how clearly those details appear in the input image. Smaller or more complex elements may vary slightly in the output.
**Can I change the model's face expression or mood?**\
Not at the moment. Model expressions are currently fixed; we're working on expanding this in the future.
***
## Refining your images
**What can I do if the output is not generated correctly?**\
Click the **three dots (⋮)** on the generated image. You can **Regenerate (recommended)** or **Send for Edits**.
**What does Regenerate do?**\
Regenerate creates a fresh AI version using the same inputs and styling. It's free and does not deduct credits (regeneration limits depend on your plan).
**What happens when I send an image for edits?**\
The image is submitted for manual review by our team. Turnaround time depends on your plan and availability.
***
## Templates & consistency
**What are templates in Ayna Studio?**\
Templates help maintain a consistent look across multiple images. They lock key styling elements so future generations follow the same visual direction.
**Do I need to create all templates from scratch?**\
No. Ayna Studio includes **150+ pre-built templates** you can use right away. Saved templates can be reused for new images with the same styling.
***
## Credits, plans & watermarks
**Does regenerating an image use credits?**\
No. Regeneration is free; the number of regenerations allowed depends on your plan.
**Why do some images have a watermark?**\
Images generated on the free plan include a watermark. Upgrading to a paid plan removes watermarks from newly generated images. You can compare plans: [Pricing](https://studio.getayna.com/plans?utm_source=repo\&utm_medium=faq\&utm_campaign=pricing)
**How do Ayna plans work overall?**\
Ayna plans are credit-based. Each plan gives you a set of credits, features access, and turnaround timelines. Plans are monthly or yearly subscriptions, and while you're subscribed you can buy top-up credits anytime. Higher plans offer more usage, faster edit turnaround, more regenerations, and team features. You can upgrade at any time.

## Infographics
