AI chatbot for product photographers: answers shoot and licensing questions
SleekAI reads your shoot types, per-shot pricing, and licensing terms from WordPress so e-commerce brands and agencies get real answers about white background, lifestyle, and turnaround. BYO OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or OpenRouter key.

Product photography inquiries are about volume, style, and rights
Product photography clients ask three things repeatedly: what's the per-shot rate, what's the turnaround, and what are the usage rights. SleekAI reads your shoot-type pages and pricing posts from WordPress and answers each accurately. White-background catalog shots at $45 per SKU for orders of 20+, lifestyle shots at $185 per setup with up to 5 angles, hero shots at $450 per setup with full retouching. Turnaround is 5 business days for catalog, 10 for lifestyle, 14 for hero, with rush available at +50%.
Volume pricing is the differentiator. A Shopify brand sending 80 SKUs for a catalog refresh is a different conversation than a one-off lifestyle shoot for an ad campaign. The bot quotes your real volume tiers (20-49 SKUs at $45, 50-99 at $38, 100+ at $32) and explains your batch workflow (drop-off or shipped, 5-business-day turnaround per batch of 25). Agencies asking about a 200-SKU refresh get the right per-shot rate and a 4-week phased delivery in the first message.
Licensing is the highest-stakes question. E-commerce sites, social media, and Amazon listings have different license needs than national advertising or product packaging. SleekAI reads your published licensing terms: standard license includes unlimited web, social, and marketplace use; advertising license is +100% per shot for national campaigns; product packaging is quoted separately. The bot is explicit so the agency planning a multi-channel rollout doesn't get surprised at invoicing.

Features
What SleekAI gives you for Product Photographers
Volume-aware pricing
Reads your real volume tiers (20-49 at $45, 50-99 at $38, 100+ at $32 per shot) so a brand asking about a catalog refresh gets the right per-shot rate immediately, with the right batch timeline.
Shoot-type clarity
White-background, lifestyle, hero, 360, and detail shots all have their own pricing and turnaround. The bot quotes the right tier for the right ask, no merging of fundamentally different services.
License tier accuracy
Standard, advertising, and packaging licenses are quoted from your real terms. Agencies planning multi-channel rollouts get the right upgrade quoted before the invoice surprises them.
Use cases
Where product photographers use SleekAI
E-commerce catalog refresh
Shopify and Amazon brands sending 50-200 SKUs for catalog work get the right volume tier, batch schedule, and shipping logistics in the first message. Inquiries convert without back-and-forth on rates.
Lifestyle campaigns
Agencies and brands planning lifestyle shoots get per-setup pricing, prop and model add-ons, and turnaround quoted accurately. The proposal arrives shaped to the campaign brief instead of starting blank.
Hero and packaging shots
Premium hero shots and packaging photography get the right pricing tier and licensing upgrade quoted. Brand managers planning a product launch know the all-in cost before they commit.
The bigger picture
Why product studios need volume-aware chat
Product photography is a volume business with three distinct conversation types: e-commerce catalog refreshes (high SKU count, white-background, per-shot pricing), lifestyle campaigns (per-setup pricing with model and prop add-ons), and hero or packaging work (premium per-shot with advertising license). A generic chatbot that can't differentiate them quotes one rate for everything and loses both the agency planning a $30,000 lifestyle campaign and the Shopify brand sending 80 SKUs for a $3,000 catalog refresh. SleekAI reads each shoot type as a separate WordPress post with its own pricing, turnaround, and license terms.
A brand asking about catalog work gets the right volume tier (20-49 at $45 per shot, 50-99 at $38, 100+ at $32) and the right batch turnaround (5 business days per batch of 25), and the proposal arrives in the agency procurement queue with PO requirements pre-captured. Licensing is the differentiator that closes high-value bookings. Agencies planning multi-channel rollouts need to know whether the standard license covers Amazon, Meta, and Shopify (it does) or requires the advertising upgrade for national TV (it does), and getting that wrong at the invoice stage damages the relationship.
The bot reads your published license tiers and quotes accurately, so the agency budget approval includes the right number. Add-on pricing matters as much. Model fees, prop sourcing, propstyling, location surcharges, and rush turnaround are all real costs that an agency planning a lifestyle shoot needs in the first conversation, not at the proposal stage.
Multibot lets the /agencies URL run a different bot from the /ecommerce URL, with procurement-friendly language and PO-aware presets. Display conditions can scope a separate bot to logged-in client portals for repeat agency accounts with stored pricing. The studio account manager opens each booking already knowing it's an 80-SKU Shopify refresh plus 15-product lifestyle add-on for Meta advertising, total $5,815 across two batches, drop-off to studio, PO required.
The confirmation email is automated.
Questions
Common questions about SleekAI for Product Photographers
Yes, if each shoot type and tier is published on your site as a post or pricing page. Volume tiers (20-49 SKUs, 50-99, 100+), per-setup lifestyle pricing, hero rates, and any add-ons (model fee, prop sourcing, propstyling, location surcharge) are all quoted from your real content. A brand sending 80 SKUs gets the $38-per-shot tier immediately rather than a 'we'll get back to you with a quote' email.
 Each shoot type is a separate post or service page on your WordPress site. White-background catalog, lifestyle, hero, 360, detail, and packaging shots each carry their own price, turnaround, deliverables, and license. The bot routes the inquiry to the right type based on language cues (catalog refresh, ad campaign, packaging redesign) and quotes accurately.
 Yes. Your standard license (unlimited web, social, marketplace including Amazon, Shopify, Meta) and any upgrade tiers (advertising +100% per shot, packaging quoted separately, broadcast quoted per project) are read and quoted accurately. Agencies planning multi-channel rollouts get the right upgrade quoted before booking, so the invoice matches expectations.
 Yes. If your studio policy supports both, the bot explains the workflow: drop-off for local brands (we receive at the studio, photograph, and return within 5 business days per batch), or shipped (we receive, photograph, and return shipped or held for the next batch). Insurance, return shipping, and any fragile-item handling come from your real policy page.
 Yes. The bot captures agency name, billing contact, PO number, and brand client in the intake, then routes to a procurement-friendly booking flow with terms attached. Most agencies require a PO and 30-day net terms, and the bot explains your policy (typically deposit on signing, balance on delivery, PO required for new accounts) accurately.
 Yes. Model fees (typically $350-$650 per setup depending on talent level), prop sourcing (10-15% surcharge), propstyling (full-day rate), and location surcharges (off-site setup fee) are all quoted from your real published rates. Agencies planning a lifestyle campaign get the all-in number rather than a base rate that doubles by the invoice.
 Yes. SleekAI is multibot, so the /agencies URL can run a different bot from the /ecommerce URL. The agency bot can use procurement-friendly language, PO-aware presets, and a different handoff to your account-management flow. Display conditions support URL pattern, post type, and user role for scoping.
 Yours. SleekAI is BYO API key - bring your own OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or OpenRouter key and the model bills you directly. For a product studio handling 5-20 inquiries a week the monthly model cost is typically $10 to $40 in actual API usage. GPT-4o-mini is the common cost-effective pick, GPT-4o or Claude Sonnet for higher-quality conversation on complex multi-shoot agency briefs.
