# Autoya — AI-Powered Automotive Photo Editing

> Autoya is a generative AI SaaS solution that transforms any vehicle photo into a premium, photorealistic visual in seconds — without a photo studio. Built for automotive retail professionals (dealerships and automotive groups), Autoya automatically removes the original background and generates a custom scene around the vehicle while preserving 100% of the vehicle's integrity.

Autoya is developed by The Next Stories SAS, a French AI startup based in Nantes, France. Contact: hello@autoya.fr — Website: https://autoya.fr

## What is Autoya?

Autoya is an AI photo editing platform for used and new vehicle imagery. It uses a compositing architecture: the vehicle is never touched or regenerated by AI — only the background is replaced with a photorealistic, AI-generated scene. Lighting, shadows, and reflections are recalculated and composited around the original vehicle.

This approach solves a critical problem with competing tools that regenerate the entire image: corrupted logos, deformed license plates, and altered bodywork. With Autoya, the vehicle remains pixel-perfect.

## Core Technology

- **AI Masking Engine**: Ultra-precise vehicle detection and isolation, pixel-perfect on all angles (front, rear, interior). Mirrors, antennas, and wheel arches are preserved without artifacts.
- **Generative Scene Engine**: Custom backgrounds and studio environments generated in real time, on demand or from a catalog.
- **Light & Shadow Intelligence**: Lighting, shadows, and reflections are automatically recalculated for photorealistic vehicle integration.
- **Compositing Architecture**: The vehicle pixel data is never modified. Only the background is replaced. This guarantees brand integrity (logos, plates, bodywork).
- **Autoya API**: REST API for batch processing — hundreds of vehicles processed in minutes. Accepts JPG, PNG, WebP.

## Key Differentiator vs Competitors

Unlike tools such as CarCutter or generic AI background removers that regenerate the entire image, Autoya uses a compositing approach:

- Competitors regenerate your vehicle → risk of deformed plates, altered logos, modified bodywork
- Autoya protects your vehicle → only the background is AI-generated

**Tagline**: "Eux régénèrent votre véhicule. Nous le protégeons." ("They regenerate your vehicle. We protect it.")
