Pick a theme, generate assets, prepare metadata, and upload the batch without stitching tools together.
Start with demand, scarcity, and buyer use, not blank prompts.
Prompts are built from buyer use cases, not generic AI art.
Build titles and first 10 keywords around visible subjects and buyer search intent, not generic filler.
Auto Upload packs buyer-led theme research, premium prompts, similarity control, first 10 keyword ordering, metadata, queueing, and batch submission into one low-cost system, so you can build a real stock library, not a pile of random images.
StockPhotoScout helps Adobe Stock contributors with four painful jobs: choosing themes that may sell, writing AI image prompts, preparing titles and keywords, and avoiding repetitive batch uploads. It connects theme discovery, prompt writing, metadata, image generation, and upload tasks so contributors can prepare more stock-ready assets in less time.
You can generate images inside StockPhotoScout. The workflow uses GPT Image 2 for higher-detail stock assets, then lets you download the batch or continue into Auto Upload.
Auto Upload has two options:
- General Themes: choose this when you want to start image generation and upload quickly.
- Custom Themes: generate your own theme batch first, then use that batch for image generation and upload.
Each custom theme includes an AI image prompt, English title, keywords, and a plain reason why the topic is worth making. You can use the package for batch image generation or take only the theme and prompt into your own workflow.
There are two options. Option 1: the system creates an image zip package that you download, unzip, and upload directly to your stock contributor dashboard. Option 2: if your Adobe Stock account has SFTP access, you can connect your SFTP details in the platform and the system will automatically upload the finished images to your contributor dashboard. Either way, you also receive a matching CSV file so keywords, titles, and categories can be filled after upload.
Custom themes cost 3 credits each. Auto-upload pricing depends on model and theme source: Flux general images cost 5 credits/image, custom themes cost 3 credits/image; GPT general images cost 8 credits/image, custom themes cost 6 credits/image. You can buy credits when your balance is low.
