# Photoroom MCP for AI Agents AI Agent Connect > Photoroom MCP lets you manage product photos through your AI client. It handles background removal, studio-quality scene generation, and high-res upscaling for e-commerce. No more jumping between design apps; just tell your agent what to do with your product shots. ## Overview - **Category:** industry-titans - **Price:** Free - **Endpoint:** https://edge.vinkius.com/vk_preview_QlsZvq5mn28Z2Z7sv7qImqOePXFkJgYUSxhuFhqX/ai-agent-connect - **Tags:** background-removal, computer-vision, image-editing, product-photography, ai-generation, upscaling ## Description Photoroom turns your AI client into a high-end photo editor. Instead of opening heavy design software to fix product shots, you can just describe the changes you need in a chat. This Connector connects your Photoroom account to your existing workflow, letting you handle the tedious parts of visual content creation like removing messy backgrounds or cleaning up unwanted text. It's built for people who need to move fast, like e-commerce owners who need to pump out dozens of listings or marketing teams trying to keep brand consistency across every channel. You'll find it's much faster to just tell your agent to put this mug on a wooden table than it is to manually source, edit, and mask images yourself. Since Vinkius hosts this Connector, you can plug it into your favorite tools and get your visual assets ready without leaving your workspace. It handles the heavy lifting of computer vision so you can focus on the actual creative direction. ## Tools ### advanced_image_edit Applies multiple AI edits to an image in a single request. This saves time when you need to fix several things at once. ### get_api_usage Checks how many credits you have left in your Photoroom account. Use this to keep track of your spending and limits. ### add_realistic_shadow Adds a realistic shadow to your subject to make it look grounded. It's great for making flat product shots look like they're sitting on a real surface. ### add_ai_background Replaces the current background with a high-fidelity scene generated from your prompt. Use this to instantly move a product into a luxury setting. ### expand_and_uncrop Expands the edges of your photo using AI to fit different dimensions. It's perfect for turning a square photo into a wide banner. ### remove_image_background Strips the background away from any image you provide. It gives you a clean, isolated subject for any design project. ### remove_text_from_image Deletes text overlays or watermarks from an image. This helps you clean up assets that were shared with watermarks. ### upscale_image Increases the resolution of a low-quality photo. It makes small images look sharp enough for large-scale print or web use. ## Prompt Examples **Prompt:** ``` Take this image of a watch at https://example.com/watch.jpg, remove the background, and put it on a dark velvet cushion with soft lighting. ``` **Response:** ``` I've processed the watch image for you. I've removed the original background and placed the watch on a dark velvet cushion. I also applied soft lighting to match the new setting. You can view the result here: https://cdn.photoroom.com/v1/assets/watch-velvet-123.jpg ``` **Prompt:** ``` Can you upscale this blurry logo from the website and also remove the watermark from the corner? ``` **Response:** ``` I've finished those edits. I doubled the resolution of the logo to make it crisp and removed the watermark from the bottom right corner. Here is the clean, high-resolution version: https://cdn.photoroom.com/v1/assets/logo-clean-456.png ``` **Prompt:** ``` I have a square photo of a chair. Can you make it a wide banner by expanding the sides? ``` **Response:** ``` I've expanded the boundaries of the chair photo to create a wide banner format. The AI generated a matching floor and wall background to fill the new space. You can download the wide version here: https://cdn.photoroom.com/v1/assets/chair-banner-789.jpg ``` ## Capabilities ### Remove product backgrounds Isolate your subject from any image URL with high precision. ### Generate AI scenes Create custom studio backgrounds using text prompts. ### Upscale low-res photos Increase image resolution while keeping details sharp. ### Clean up text overlays Strip away watermarks or promotional text from your assets. ### Add realistic shadows Place soft or hard shadows under products for a 3D look. ### Expand image boundaries Use AI uncropping to change the aspect ratio of your photos. ## Use Cases ### Creating a new product listing A merchant has a photo of a shoe on a messy floor. They ask the agent to use remove_image_background and then add_ai_background to put it on a marble pedestal. ### Fixing a low-res banner A marketer has a blurry social media asset. They ask the agent to use upscale_image and remove_text_from_image to make it usable for a new campaign. ### Batch editing for a brand A brand manager needs a consistent look for 10 items. They use advanced_image_edit to apply specific shadows and backgrounds to multiple product shots at once. ### Creating a wide hero image A designer has a vertical product shot but needs a horizontal banner. They use expand_and_uncrop to generate extra background space on the sides. ## Benefits - Stop wasting hours on manual masking.
