PIM
What a PIM integration does
A PIM, or product information management system, holds the facts about each product: SKU, category, color, material and description. Lumesa reads those facts, generates and reviews the product images, and attaches approved images back to the same record, so your PIM stays the single source of truth.
Lumesa is not a PIM, and it does not ask you to change how you manage product data. It works with the system you already have. Your team keeps editing records where they always have, and the images they need show up attached to the right products.

HOW IT WORKS
How product data becomes product images
01
Connect
You link your PIM. Our team handles setup with you.
02
Read
Lumesa pulls the product attributes it needs from each record, along with the source photos linked to it.
03
Generate and review
Images are produced in your brand’s trained look, and a person on our team reviews each one against your original photo before it moves on.
04
Return
Approved images attach to the same SKU, and the record shows the status of each image, so your team can see what is done and what is waiting.
WHY IT MATTERS
Why product data matters for imagery
Good product imagery depends on good product data. A garment’s category tells us how it should be shot. Its color tells us what accuracy to protect. Its material tells us how it should drape and catch the light. When that information sits in your PIM, it can guide the images instead of living in someone’s head or in a brief that gets lost between teams.
The benefit runs both ways. Images that come back attached to the right record, with a clear status, save your team from the usual chase: which products have final images, which are waiting, which were replaced. The record tells you.
DATA
Which product data Lumesa uses
Lumesa works from the attributes you already maintain. The core of it is the SKU and variant, which match each image to the right record. Category and product type guide the photo style. Color and colorway keep color accurate. Material and fabric guide drape and texture. The product description and copy inform styling. On the way back, image links and status are written to the record so approved images attach to the right product.
You do not need a perfect record to start. Tell us which fields you have, and we will work with them.
GOVERNANCE
Your PIM stays the source of truth
A PIM exists so that one version of the truth is shared across every channel. A good imagery integration should respect that. Lumesa reads from your PIM and writes approved images back to it, nothing more. Nothing is attached until it has been reviewed and approved, each image carries its own status and version, and your existing records are not rewritten. Your team stays in control of the data, and Lumesa handles the imagery.
YOUR STACK
Where your PIM, DAM and store fit
Three systems usually sit around product imagery, and each has a different job. Your PIM holds the facts about each product. Your DAM, or digital asset management system, stores the files and their versions. Your store, such as Shopify, sells the product. Lumesa sits between them, reading from each and returning approved images to the right place. You can connect one of them or all three, and each has its own page with the details.

SAMPLE
See one record before and after
In your sample run we show you one of your own product records twice: as it is today, with a single ghost mannequin or flat lay photo, and again after Lumesa, with reviewed on-model images attached and a status showing they are approved. The same SKU and the same data, with finished images attached.
