Add a stock photo when you don't have one
No photo of an item? Manifest can find a representative image to stand in until you take your own.
If you don't have a photo of an item, Manifest can generate a representative image to stand in its place. It is in the photo section of the item detail view.
How to use it
- Open the item.
- Tap the option to generate a stock photo. It appears when the item has no photo and you have AI actions available.
- The search query is pre-filled from the item's brand, model, and name. Adjust it if needed, then run the search.
- Manifest generates an image and applies it to the item.
The generated image is stored in your account just like a photo you uploaded. You can replace it any time by adding a real photo.
What the images look like
Manifest generates stylized pixel-art renderings, not product photography. They are meant as placeholders to help you recognize items in your inventory at a glance, not for posting as listing photos.
Good to know
- Generating a stock image uses one AI action.
- The feature is available on trial and paid plans; it's not available after a trial has expired without a subscription.
- If AI actions are exhausted, the option won't appear or will offer to add a Boost.
- You can also generate a stock photo while reviewing a draft receipt, using the Generate button in the draft's photo section.
