> AI-powered real estate photo enhancement and video generation

## What you can build

Use the Fotolabs API to plug AI photo enhancement into your own workflow — MLS integrations, photography apps, batch processing pipelines, and more.

## How it works

<Steps>
  <Step title="Create a project">
    One project per listing. Pass a name (address works great) and an enhancement style.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Upload images">
    Get a presigned S3 URL for each photo and upload directly — JPEG, PNG, or RAW (NEF, CR2, ARW, DNG, and more).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Process">
    One API call triggers the entire batch. HDR brackets are auto-detected from EXIF — no grouping needed on your end.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Get results">
    Poll the project endpoint until `status` is `completed`. Each image returns a CDN URL with the processed result.
  </Step>
