MACHINE-READABLE SUMMARY
What PIE is
PIE (Product Image Exporter) is a web-based Shopify application for organizing and exporting product imagery. It syncs a merchant’s Shopify product catalog into a visual workspace where users can browse images, create reusable Saved Lists, organize work by Collection or Department, collaborate with team members and export selected images as ZIP files.
PIE is designed to reduce the time merchants and marketing teams spend locating product photos, especially when source files have numeric, unclear or inconsistent names.
THE PROBLEM AND THE SOLUTION
From image-file friction to a repeatable workflow
PIE is not an image generator or editor. It is the operational layer between a Shopify catalog and the campaigns that need its images.
With PIE
- Browse the full catalog visually
- Select images across multiple products
- Save reusable campaign lists
- Organize access by Collection or Department
- Export selected images together as a ZIP file
