Photolyx

What's new

Everything we've shipped in Photolyx.

Marketplace pack: description from a photo, three stores, server-side runs

New“Description from a photo”: the AI reads colour, material, set and packaging text, writes the title, description and keywords, fills in the category characteristics and sends everything to the listing.
New“To store” button: one dialog for Wildberries, Ozon and Yandex Market with a requirements check before sending (size, 3:4, prices, contacts, watermarks, badge imitation).
NewYandex Market connects with an API key: main photos and texts go straight into offers.
NewBulk runs now work on the server: catalogue repack and texts for all listings continue after you close the tab, with a preview before applying.
NewAttention map of a cover and AI drafts for Wildberries reviews and questions, published from the app.
ImprovedStores: Wildberries token expiry is shown and warned about in advance, Ozon connection errors explain the cause, “Connect a store” is searchable in ⌘K and offered in onboarding.
ImprovedPublic API and MCP: Ozon products and main photo, listing texts (read, generate, push).

Simpler pricing: no subscription

ImprovedThe Pro subscription is gone. There is only one way to pay now — one-off lyx packs, and the lyx you buy never expire.
ImprovedThe entry price is lower: the smallest pack is 150 ₽ instead of 300 ₽. The line-up is now 150 / 500 / 2500 / 7500 ₽.

The interface now talks back

ImprovedActions confirm themselves: a quiet line at the bottom of the screen says what just happened — saved to a project, payment received, key revoked.
ImprovedWaiting for a generation now shows the stages — analysis, generation, detailing — so you can see what is done and what is running.
ImprovedIcon buttons finally have proper hints, and confirmations ask in our own dialog instead of the browser's grey box.

Long UGC videos and brush editing

NewUGC videos now come in a 30-second format: the presenter delivers a full pitch with a hook, benefits and a call to action.
NewBrush editing right in the Improve panel: paint over an area and describe what should be there — the rest of the image stays intact.
ImprovedTemplate product videos gained the flagship Seedance 2.5 model with sound.
