AI Portraits Overview
The AI Portraits feature uses Fal.ai to generate artistic portrait styles from customer photos. Customers can choose an AI style, and the app transforms their uploaded photo into that style.Setting Up AI Portraits
Step 1: Get a Fal.ai API Key
- Go to fal.ai and create an account.
- Navigate to your dashboard and generate an API key.
- Copy the API key — you will need it in the next step.
Step 2: Add Your API Key in Settings
- In Photo Frame Customizer, go to Settings.
- Paste your Fal.ai API key into the Fal.ai API Key field.
- Click Save.
Keep your API key secure. Do not share it publicly. The key is stored securely and used only to process AI portrait requests.
Step 3: Add Portrait Styles
- Navigate to AI Portraits in the sidebar.
- Click Add Portrait Style.
- Enter a Style Name (e.g., “Oil Painting”, “Watercolor”, “Pencil Sketch”).
- Select the AI model or style preset from the dropdown.
- Click Save.
- Repeat for each style you want to offer customers.
How Customers Use AI Portraits
- The customer opens the frame customizer on your storefront.
- They upload a photo.
- They select AI Portrait and choose a style.
- The app sends the image to Fal.ai and returns the transformed portrait.
- The customer can then apply the portrait to their chosen frame.
AI portrait generation may take a few seconds depending on the selected style and image size. The feature requires a valid Fal.ai API key with available credits.
