Hot Pot Styles

Broth that reads rich, not muddy

Steam and dim dining-room light turn mala broth muddy and raw platters gray. FoodShot restyles the light, surface and background around your real pot and ingredients, so chili oil, clear stock and marbled wagyu read true — in any of 200+ styles, from dark slate to warm wood.

Builder Mode

One matched table for every platter

Pick a background, a plate and optional props, then upload your food. Builder Mode places your real wagyu, seafood and mushrooms on that plate and background, so your whole raw lineup shares one matched table.

Try Builder Mode→

My Styles

Your dining room in every photo

Upload a few photos of your own tables and dining room to My Styles and reuse them as a style. Every new pot and platter then takes on your venue's light and surfaces, so a chain's locations, its winter specials and its all-you-can-eat spread share one consistent look.

hello@foodshot.ai

FoodShot AI is a web and mobile app for restaurants, cafés, bakeries and other food businesses. You upload a photo of a dish you already have, choose one of 200+ styles, and in about a minute FoodShot AI turns it into a professional 2K food photo that you can download and use on your menu, delivery apps, website and social media. On foodshot.ai, plans start at $15 a month for about 25 photos ($9 a month billed yearly), and every plan includes a commercial license.

It's simple! Upload a photo of your food, choose your desired style (menu photography or social media format), and click generate. Each photo takes about a minute. For poster creation, select from our professional templates, add your text, and create marketing-ready content.

Yes! Download our mobile app from the App Store to create stunning dish photos on the go. Access all features directly from your iOS device.

Yes! FoodShot AI is now available on Android. You can download it from Google Play and start creating professional food photos directly from your Android device.

With a paid plan, you can use the images you create for any lawful commercial purpose, including your restaurant, menus, delivery apps, marketing campaigns and social media. FoodShot does not claim ownership of them. See our Terms of Service for details.

Absolutely! Once you upload a custom background or reference template, you can use it for all your future generations. This is perfect for maintaining consistent branding across all your food photography. Save your favorite backgrounds and create a cohesive visual identity for your restaurant.

FoodShot AI supports all major image formats including JPG, PNG, WEBP, and HEIC. For best results, we recommend using high-quality images with good lighting. The AI will analyze your reference and apply the same style, lighting, and composition to your food photos.

Yes! You can upload your own poster designs and templates. Whether it's your restaurant's branded template or a custom design, simply upload it and FoodShot AI will intelligently place your food photos while preserving your design elements, logos, and text.

All paid plans include unlimited custom template uploads. You can build an entire library of your brand's templates, backgrounds, and reference styles.

Steam fogs the lens and warm, dim bulbs cast an orange haze, so mala broth turns brown and raw meat looks gray. Wipe the lens, upload the shot and pick a FoodShot style: studio light brings back the ruby chili oil, the clean stock and the fresh pink of the meat you served.

Yes — a clear phone photo of the pot or platter is all FoodShot needs. Pick a style, upload the shot and a studio-quality 2K photo comes back in about a minute, ready for your menu, website and delivery apps. Shoot from slightly above so the broth and the ingredients both show.

Yes — FoodShot keeps your pot, broth and ingredients as you served them. What changes is the light, the table surface and the background, so a split pot keeps both of its broths and a wagyu plate keeps its own marbling while the whole frame looks studio-lit.

Yes — raw platters are where phone photos struggle most, with wagyu turning brown and prawns looking dull under warm bulbs. Shoot each platter from above in good light, and FoodShot restyles the scene around it so the marbling, the translucent prawns and the glossy scallops read fresh.

Use one style for the whole menu. Every broth, platter and sauce you upload gets the same light, surface and background, so dozens of add-ons look like one shoot. For a look tied to your own dining room, save a few photos of your tables in My Styles and reuse them.

Plans start at $15 for 25 photos, each delivered at 2K with a commercial license for menus, websites, ordering kiosks and delivery apps. A photo takes about a minute, so a full lineup of broths, platters and sauces fits into one afternoon before service.

Your hot pot restaurant deserves better food photos.
