How to extract a product from an on-model photo

The Product Extractor turns a photo of a garment worn on a model into a clean flatlay product shot, rendered on the background of your choice.

  1. In the sidebar, open Studio and click Product Extractor — or use its tile on your dashboard.
  2. Drag and drop your photos onto the panel, or click it to browse your files. On a phone, use the Take Photo and Choose from Gallery buttons instead. Your photos appear as thumbnails, each with a cross to remove it and an Add more tile to keep going. You can add several, and each photo produces one extraction. One photo can only produce one garment: if the model wears several, Veeton extracts the main one.
  3. Optionally choose the Type of product: Upper body, Lower body or Full body. This is how you tell Veeton which garment to take when the model wears more than one — pick Lower body and it extracts the trousers rather than the shirt. Full body means one garment covering the whole body, such as a dress or a jumpsuit; it does not mean the whole outfit, since an extraction always produces a single garment. The choice applies to every photo in the launch, so a batch should hold photos you want the same kind of product from. Skip the step and Veeton picks the main garment itself, as it does when you leave it blank. Click the chosen tile again, or the cross on its summary card, to clear it.
  4. Optionally choose a background. Skip this step and Veeton uses the default studio background. Backgrounds that keep the original scene are not available here — extraction always renders the garment on a new surface.
  5. Optionally pick the aspect ratio, bottom left. It applies to every photo in the launch, and starts at 3:4 unless you have set another default under Brand Setup → Default aspect ratios.
  6. Click Extract products.

Results appear in the History panel on the right as they finish, and in your project’s gallery when you launch from inside a project. In the results gallery, the Product Extractor filter pill shows only your extractions.

  • Each extraction costs 10 credits per photo.
  • A launch can include up to 50 photos, and Veeton checks it against your balance as a whole: if you cannot afford all of it, nothing is launched.

The Product Extractor handles clothing: tops, bottoms and full-body pieces. That is why the type of product offers those three and nothing else. Shoes, headwear, bags, glasses and other accessories are not supported — pointing the extractor at one fails with an out-of-scope error, even when the photo is otherwise fine. For those, shoot the product with an AI photoshoot instead.

Two other errors you can hit, both reported on the failed result:

  • No garment is being worn in this image — the photo shows no garment on a person or a mannequin. A flatlay or a folded garment cannot be extracted; it is already off the body.
  • No garment in this image matches your choice — the type of product you picked is not in the photo. Clear the choice, or pick the type that is actually there.
  • An extraction is a standalone image, not a product view. It is not added to any product, so you will not find it in a product’s images — it lives in the results gallery, under No product when you group by product, and you search for it by the garment Veeton identified rather than by a product name. To use one as a product image, download it and upload it to that product.
  • You upload the source photo here rather than picking it from your product library, so the photo does not need to be in Veeton beforehand.
  • The extracted shot is a flatlay. For ghost-mannequin or on-model looks, use the Product Beautifier or an AI photoshoot instead.
