What it does (and when to use it)
A pipeline is a saved sequence of editing steps (for example, remove background, upscale, add shadow) that runs automatically on every image you feed it. Use pipelines when you need repeatable, consistent edits across many images. Common use cases:- Product photo prep — remove background, resize, add shadow, export as PNG for every SKU
- Social media batch — apply brand colors, overlay logo, crop to platform dimensions
- Catalog standardization — uniform background, consistent lighting adjustments, and sizing across an entire product line
Creating a pipeline
- Open the Pipelines tab
- Click New Pipeline
- Add steps in order — each step is an editing action (remove background, upscale, retouch, etc.)
- Configure settings for each step (output format, resolution, intensity)
- Save the pipeline with a descriptive name
Running a pipeline
- Select the pipeline you want to run
- Choose a collection or upload images as the input
- Click Run — Pixa processes every image through each step in order
- Review outputs and download or continue editing
Editing and managing pipelines
- Reorder steps by dragging them in the pipeline editor
- Add or remove steps at any time
- Duplicate a pipeline to create variations without starting from scratch
- Delete pipelines you no longer need from the pipeline list
