Our take
Images are one of the most important parts of any business's digital strategy. Not only do images portray a lot of information quickly, they also help to grab attention, engage viewers, and, often most importantly, sell products. For example, articles including images can get up to 94% more total views than those without, and, as a general rule, the better quality images that are used on an online store, the more products that are likely to be sold as a result.
This growing trend is what PhotoRoom is relying on. PhotoRoom makes use of AI which automatically crops people and objects in an image, giving users plenty of room for manoeuvre when it comes to creative freedom. For example, influencers and people reselling clothes and fashion items have been relying on PhotoRoom to make their products look appealing, and this niche of creators is only one part of a massively scalable consumer base of individuals using their phones as their main creativity platform.
With earnings based on a subscription model, the key challenge for PhotoRoom will be keeping its users engaged on a long-term basis. That being said, with operations now on both Android and iOS, PhotoRoom is in a strong position to keep growing.
