Why Use a Bulk Image Editing API
Editing vehicle photos one at a time does not scale. Dealerships add dozens of new units a week and marketplaces handle thousands of listings, so the only practical way to keep photos consistent is to process them in bulk. A bulk API lets you submit a batch of images in a single job and get them all back edited.
The AutoBackgrounding API is designed for exactly this. Uploads go directly to secure storage through presigned URLs, and jobs are processed asynchronously, so you can queue large batches without tying up your own servers.
- Submit batches of vehicle photos per job
- Asynchronous processing that never blocks your app
- Consistent studio output across every image
- Credits refunded automatically for failed images
How Bulk Processing Scales
Because processing is asynchronous, you submit a bulk job, receive a job reference, and poll the status endpoint as images complete. This pattern lets you process an entire inventory in the background and pull results as they finish, rather than waiting on a single long request.
For teams with recurring volume, this connects naturally to inventory and DMS feeds so every new vehicle is queued for editing automatically.
Volume-Friendly Pricing
The credit-based model keeps bulk costs predictable: one image equals one credit, starting as low as 5 cents per image on higher-volume plans. Credits are charged when the job is submitted and refunded for any image that fails. See the API pricing page for the full tier breakdown and documentation.
