UGC at scale, without the chaos
Fast uploads, AI-powered tagging, background removal, automatic optimization, and real-time transformations let you focus on your product while ImageKit takes care of the infrastructure.
Fast, direct uploads at any scale
Let users upload images and videos directly to ImageKit, no need to route through your servers. Use our prebuilt upload widget, REST API, or SDKs for JavaScript, Android, iOS, and more.
Files are uploaded to the nearest ingest edge and appear in your Media Library within seconds.
Secure, elastic cloud storage that scales as you grow.
AI tagging plus custom metadata
Auto-tagging detects objects and scenes to add accurate tags the moment a file lands in your library. Your UGC stays organized and instantly searchable without manual effort.
Capture what machines can’t with fully custom metadata fields—SKU, campaign, user ID, anything. Combine tags and metadata filters to surface the right asset in milliseconds.
Remove busy backgrounds in one call
Clean up marketplace listings and profile photos with a single URL parameter e-bgremove. Optionally, use e-dropshadow to add a soft shadow for a studio finish—no manual editing queue.
Swap backgrounds with generative AI
Instantly drop user photos into on-brand, studio-quality scenes. One URL call replaces the backdrop while preserving the subject’s edges and lighting—perfect for campaigns that need fresh looks every day.
Make grainy uploads look crisp
Rescue low-resolution or user-generated thumbnails with e-upscale. AI upscaling restores detail and reduces noise so images stay sharp on high-DPR screens.
Optimized delivery on every device
Whatever your users upload—portrait selfies, widescreen screenshots, or 12-megabyte PNGs—ImageKit cleans it up on the fly. Smart crop, face detection, format conversion, and compression are all triggered through a single, URL-level transformation.
With 700+ AWS CloudFront PoPs and six processing regions, delivery is fast and reliable, especially where it matters most: on the web.
