Turn a product photo into a promotion image on WhatsApp, with Recraft
An AI agent takes the product photo you send on WhatsApp, gives it a new background with Recraft, prepares variations and sends you the final piece.
How do I turn a product photo I took with my phone into a promotion image?
A Met connected to Recraft checks that your account has credits, takes the product photo you send on WhatsApp and generates a new background from the scene you describe, for example a wooden table in morning light. If you want options, it generates variations from that image, and if you have no photo, it creates the piece from a text. Finally it upscales the one you pick without changing its content and sends it back in the conversation, ready to post. Each step spends credits from your Recraft plan.
What starts it
When someone asks for it
It starts when someone at the business sends the Met a product photo on WhatsApp and describes the promotion. It does not run in the background: each piece is a request and spends Recraft credits.
A manual task: someone on the team runs it with a button, or asks the Met for it in chat.
Who runs it
Social media content Met with Recraft
Studio team
This is not a named, seeded Met. It is the Met that prepares the business's social content, with Recraft connected. Its work ends when the promotion image is approved and in good resolution; posting it is left to the Met or the person who runs social media.

The procedure, step by step
Each step shows the tool that runs. They belong to the real connector: if one of them stopped existing, this page would not build.
- 1
Check the credit balance
Before generating, the Met checks the Recraft account and its credit balance. If it is not enough, it says so instead of leaving the piece half done.
- 2
Give the product a setting
With the photo that arrived on WhatsApp and the scene you described, the Met generates a new background for the product, with the style and size the skill sets.
- 3
Prepare variations to choose from
If you ask for options, the Met generates new images from the first one and the promotion text, with a similarity strength so they stay close to the product.
- 4
Create the piece from a text when there is no photo
If the promotion is not about a product with a photo, such as a general discount, the Met generates the image from the description you gave, in the brand's style.
- 5
Upscale the chosen one
With the image approved, the Met upscales it without changing its content, so it does not look blurry in a story or a poster, and sends it back in the conversation.
Before you start
What you need ready
The Met solves none of these for you. If one is missing, the automation stops there.
-
Recraft connected in Met
In Met, open Connections → Recraft → Connect and sign in with the business's account. Authorization is with OAuth.
-
Credits on your Recraft plan
Each operation deducts Recraft subscription credits. Check your plan before asking for many variations in a row.
-
The brand style written in the skill
Write in the Met's skill the style and sizes your brand uses. Without it, each piece may come out in a different style.
The limits
What this automation does NOT solve
Better said here than discovered halfway through the rollout.
-
It does not post the image to your social accounts: it gets it ready and shares it in the conversation. Posting is left to another integration or your team.
-
It does not ask for confirmation in the chat before generating: if the action is on, it spends the credits. The admin decides which actions stay on.
-
It does not write the promotion text inside the image with editable typography: it generates the whole image, and fine text is added in your design editor.
-
It does not remove the photo's background: that action starts switched off and this procedure does not use it.
FAQ
Questions about this automation
Yes. The Met changes its background and finally upscales it, which is what usually fails when a phone photo is used large.
As many as you want to pay for in credits: each variation spends Recraft credits. It is best to ask for a few and refine the one you like most.
Recraft does it, but that action starts switched off in Met. If you need it, the admin turns it on in Connections.
Your Recraft account, with your plan's credits. Meteor does not resell Recraft or charge per image.
