1. Vastralook — most control, and the only one that makes the shots for you
Drape Studio's cut workspace lets you mark the pallu end, straighten the grain and set repeat lines before generating, and turns your blouse fabric into a finished blouse. Catalogue Studio batches every garment × model × style. You can generate yourself on a plan, or place a Create order for 8 credits a 1K shot (10 at 2K), ready in 3–4 minutes. Logo branding and 50% credits back on a missed shot are built in.
2. SareeViz — pay per image, up to 8K
Built for sarees and ethnic wear, with the blouse as a separate upload, marketplace presets and up to 8K. ₹10 per 1K image, ₹15 at 2K, ₹20 at 4K and ₹25 at 8K, plus 18% GST, from a ₹100 pack; credits last 90 days and new accounts get 5 free.

3. Photta — rupee plans for mixed catalogues
AI clothing and jewellery models, ghost mannequins and try-on on every plan, from ₹799 a month (₹666 billed yearly) for 30 product photos. Good for sellers whose catalogue is more than sarees.

5. Botika — on-model with human retouching
Includes retouch rounds where their team fixes flagged issues. Pro is $46 a month billed yearly for 600 credits a year at 2K. Useful if you want a human check without running a shoot.
6. Photoroom — a great editor that also does models
The best general product-photo editor here, with AI Fashion Models from five credits per 1K image on its Pro plan. Not built for saree draping, but excellent if most of your images are cut-outs.
What is the best AI tool for saree photography?
For control over the pallu and repeats, and the option of a team making the shots, Vastralook. For 8K files and a pay-per-image wallet, SareeViz. The right pick depends on whether price, control or time matters most to you.
How much does AI saree photography cost in India?
SareeViz charges ₹10 plus GST at 1K and ₹15 at 2K. Vastralook is ₹20–₹25 for a 1K image you generate and ₹10–₹13 for a 2K shot as a Create order, and its top-up credits never expire. Subscription tools range from ₹167 to ₹799 a month in rupees.
Can AI handle a saree's pallu correctly?
Only if it is told where the pallu is. Tools built for sarees let you mark the pallu end; general tools usually cannot, so the pallu design may land in the pleats.
