The Generative AI Difference

Spyne and most competitors use basic "cut and paste" background removal—they simply detect the car's edges and drop it onto a new background. The result often looks artificial.

CarShots uses generative AI to create photorealistic results. Our technology:

  • Analyzes the car and background together to create realistic lighting
  • Generates natural shadows and reflections that match the scene
  • Handles fine details like windshield reflections and chrome trim
  • Produces images that look like professional studio shots—not obvious edits

CarShots (Generative AI)

Creates photorealistic scenes with AI-generated lighting, shadows, and reflections that match the environment. Results look like they were shot in a professional studio.

Spyne & Others (Basic Removal)

Cuts out the car and pastes it onto a new background. Often results in mismatched lighting, missing shadows, and an obvious "edited" appearance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about CarShots vs Spyne

Spyne doesn't publish transparent pricing. Their website shows 4 tiers (Essential, Growth, Comprehensive, Enterprise) but requires you to "Talk to Sales" for actual pricing. CarShots is transparent: $49.99/month with 333 photos included, $0.15 per additional photo.

For most dealers, yes. CarShots offers transparent pricing, generative AI technology that produces more realistic results, all features in one plan (vs Spyne's 4 tiers with feature gating), no contracts, and a free trial without credit card. The main advantage of Spyne is their broader product suite (conversational AI, etc.) if you need those features.

CarShots uses generative AI to create photorealistic images with natural lighting, shadows, and reflections.
