Case Study: Dreamship achieves faster e-commerce mockup creation and rapid growth with Adobe Photoshop APIs

How Dreamship used Photoshop APIs to accelerate its growth in e-commerce

Dreamship, an enterprise print-on-demand e-commerce platform, needed a fast, reliable imaging solution to create high-fidelity product mockups for its “virtual inventory.” As its team and catalog grew, the company found that its existing tools were not scalable and that engineers were spending too much time deconstructing Photoshop files to generate mockups.

Adobe’s Photoshop APIs, discovered through Adobe.IO, provided the solution with features like Smart Object Replace for quick image swapping and support for complex layered workflows. With Adobe, Dreamship enabled non-technical designers to create mockups, cut mockup creation time from 10–20 hours to under 30 minutes, expanded client virtual inventory from thousands to hundreds of thousands of SKUs, and contributed to 12x revenue growth from 2019 to December 2020.
