Where Ayna is strong
-
Listings, not just images
Ayna exports titles and attributes as a spreadsheet and can publish to Shopify, per their site. For a marketplace team, that saves a real step.
-
Numbers with sources
Its headline stats carry source footnotes, which is rare in this market and worth copying.
-
People behind the edits
Every paid plan can send an image to an in-house team for manual correction, within the plan's edit limit.
Consistency, accuracy and who checks the result
A brand look you never have to re-set
Ayna lets you brand-lock a model and a lighting setup. We hold the whole look for you, cast, set, light, grade and styling, product after product and season after season.
Beadwork and stones, held to the last detail
Ayna's FAQ says subtle stitching or fine beadwork "may show slight variation". On embellished pieces and jewelry, a person on our team checks those details against your product before delivery.
No flat lays shot to a spec
Ayna asks for clean, well-lit flat lays with the full garment visible. Send us what you have, phone photos included, and we handle the prep.
Moving from Ayna? Keep the listings, raise the look
Keep Ayna's listing files if they work for your team. Send us the products that need a stronger look or a fine-detail check, and we shoot them in one consistent style.
