## How to Streamline Photo Printing Workflows

*Create custom UI*

Build a UI that best matches your needs, whether it is photo editing, postcard or photo book creation, you can easily adapt our SDK to your specific use case and match your brand perfectly.

*Create easily customizable templates*

Inspire your users with a gallery of templates they can quickly edit and personalize. Define how users can interact which each element and make the editing process as easy or advanced as needed.

*Enable in-app photo editing*

Allow users to quickly and easily crop, adjust, and apply filters to their photos directly in the editor, without the need of using 3rd party tools.

*Connect variable API*

Enable mass personalization with just few clicks. Tag an element as a variable, connect template to a data source and generate countless variation within seconds.

*Automate creation process with programmatic layouting*

Programmatically arrange images on the page to save your users unnecessary work. For instance, sort images by date for a âyear in reviewâ photo book and then simply load them into a template to create a print-ready design.

*Implement automated print validation process*

Predefine bleed margins, spot colors, and page clippings and set automatic alerts in case of any errors, such as design extending beyond bleed margins.   You can also implement content moderation to safeguard designs against harmful content or trademark infringements.

*Streamline photo print creation with AI*

Enhance your photo printing workflows with built-in AI capabilities. Instantly generate templates, image enhancements, text elements, and creative assets through simple prompts.   Our model-agnostic AI plugins let you connect any third-party model or API, helping you automate photo print personalization and deliver stunning results faster.

## What Our Clients Say About Us

Integrating IMG.LYâs editor meant we didnât have to build or maintain a complex editing layer ourselves. That kept our team focused on our core AI ad engine and saved us countless development hours â while still giving our customers the ability to polish and customize creatives at scale.

Hikari Senju@CEO@Omneky

With IMG.LY we built a central creative portal that now powers over 140 dealer campaigns across multiple automotive brands. Before this, asset creation was slow and inconsistent. IMG.LY gave us the scale and flexibility we needed to grow.

Martin RÃ¶hr@Product Owner@Digitas

By embedding IMG.LYâs editor we were able to hit key RFP requirements and deliver a template-based creative experience that now serves 1,000+ customers. It helped us win more deals and exceed enterprise expectations without needing to hire dedicated design teams.

Rob Driscoll@Director of PM@Optimizely

Since integrating IMG.LYâs editor, we now deliver 30,000+ ad creatives per month dramatically shorten time-to-launch, and help our clients cut design spend by up to $10,000 per month.This capability has been essential to delivering on our promise of fast, scalable creative production.

IMG.LYâs solution engineers did a deep dive on our business case and helped us implement a custom print kiosk UI.

Jeanine Zaalberg@Product Manager@Swiss Post

Our app has photo-editing at the very core of its experience and the editor has been invaluable in making that vision happen. There are no other tools on the market up to the quality of PE.SDK.

Toby Green@Lead Developer@Elbi

From a developerâs perspective, the most powerful feature of the photo editor is the integration process. It was completely flawless, quick, and easy to integrate.

Stefano Fornari@CTO@Funambol/Zefiro

Our developers loved that the integration was really straightforward and that everything you need like APIs and documentation is easy to find and of excellent quality.

Thomas Witt@Head of Product@Infopark

I believe that it is one of the easiest to use and most powerful editors on the market and the integration possibilities into our solution are awesome.
