AI product photography tools with an API.
Herofab, Photta, FASHN, Photoroom, Claid, Modelia, WeShop AI, Flair and Caspa AI all list an API on their own sites. The difference is where it sits: Herofab and Photta include it in every plan on the same credits as the app, while the others bill it separately or keep it for paid, higher or enterprise plans.
Herofab publishes this page and lists itself first. Everything said about another tool comes from that tool's own site, read on 9 October 2026. A dash in the table means a feature is not listed there, not that it does not exist.

Video
Herofab makes still images only. Tools on this page whose sites list video: Photta, FASHN, Photoroom, Claid, Modelia, WeShop AI, Flair, and Caspa AI.
A lower entry price
Tools on this page with an entry plan below Herofab's $19 a month: WeShop AI ($9.99), Flair ($10), Photoroom ($12.99), Photta ($14), and Claid ($15). A credit buys a different amount on each tool, so compare images a month, not credits.
No code at all
An API is for a team that sends images from its own system. A store that works by hand uses the same tools in the Herofab app, on the same credits.
