AI metadata for stock contributors — titled, described & keyworded before you upload

Stock Meta embeds Adobe Stock-ready metadata straight into your Midjourney and AI images. ChatGPT writes the title, description and keywords; we stamp them into the file as XMP/IPTC. Download a ZIP and upload — every field is already filled in.

How it works

Built for contributors who ship volume: upload a batch, let the worker generate metadata, review in a table, download a ZIP ready for Adobe Stock, Freepik, Shutterstock and more.

Upload — Drop hundreds of PNGs or JPEGs. We convert to high-quality JPEG and upscale anything below 4 MP.
Generate — ChatGPT Vision writes a keyword-rich title, description and up to 47 keywords in Adobe Stock style.
Embed — Metadata is written into the JPEG as standard XMP/IPTC. No sidecars, no copy-paste.
Download — Review, edit if needed, then grab a ZIP (or CSV / SFTP for supported agencies).

Built for volume

Background queue with parallel requests (up to ~2,000 images/day), custom hints per series, one-click regenerate, and credit tracking down to the cent. 1 photo = 1 credit, 1 video = 6 credits — credits never expire.

Why Adobe Stock doesn't read your JPG metadata

Embedded XMP into a JPG but Adobe Stock shows empty fields? The missing JFIF APP0 marker is to blame. Here's the cause and how to fix the file.

How to attribute AI images for stock sites

Freepik and Shutterstock metadata tips

Practical title, description and keyword tips for Freepik and Shutterstock — limits, CSV vs embedded XMP, and how to reuse an Adobe Stock-ready file across agencies.

Does this work for Midjourney / AI images?

Yes. Upload PNGs or JPEGs from Midjourney, Firefly and similar tools. We convert, upscale to the 4 MP minimum when needed, generate metadata and embed XMP — then you mark Generative AI on the agency form.

Which stock sites are supported?

ZIP export profiles cover Adobe Stock, Freepik, Shutterstock, Pond5 and Motion Array. CSV export is available for Shutterstock and Pond5. SFTP auto-upload targets Adobe Stock.

Do credits expire?

No. Buy credits once — they never expire and there is no recurring billing. They are only spent on generations.

Is there a free tier?

Yes — start with free trial credits to process photos or short video batches and verify the XMP workflow before buying more.
