How ai shadow generator works
Upload a product photo or cutout
Works on transparent PNGs from a background remover or full photos — the AI finds the product either way.
Pick a shadow style
Soft ambient shadow for marketplaces, tight drop shadow for catalogues, or long dramatic light for editorial-style shots.
Download the grounded result
The shadow matches your product's shape and the scene's light direction — download and use immediately.
Physically accurate, not a blob
The AI reads your product's silhouette and generates a shadow that follows its true contact points — bottle bases, shoe soles, box edges — instead of a generic oval smudge.
Consistent across your catalogue
Apply the same shadow style and light direction to every SKU so your category grid looks like one professional shoot, not fifty different sources.
Marketplace-safe subtlety
Amazon allows realistic shadows on white backgrounds. The soft ambient preset is tuned to stay inside marketplace rules while adding depth.

Your complete AI product photo studio
AI Shadow Generator is one tool of twenty. Sellable turns one plain product photo into a full campaign — studio backgrounds, lifestyle scenes, on-model shots, and UGC-style videos — all in seconds.
The difference between our old floating cutouts and the shadowed versions was immediate — the whole store looked more expensive. Conversion on our best seller rose 12%.
Frequently asked questions

Soft ambient shadow (marketplace-safe), tight drop shadow (catalogue look), and directional studio shadow (editorial look). Each adapts to your product's shape automatically.
Does it work on transparent PNG cutouts?

Can I control the shadow direction and strength?
Yes. You can adjust light direction, shadow softness, and opacity to match an existing scene or your brand style.
Will the shadow match photos that already have lighting?
The AI reads the light direction in your photo and generates a shadow consistent with it, so composited images look natural.
