Google Pomelli Photoshoot Converts Phone Photos to Studio Assets
Google unveiled Pomelli Photoshoot, an AI-powered marketing tool intended for small and medium-sized businesses. The Photoshoot feature can convert a smartphone photo into a studio-quality asset, enabling rapid creation of visuals for campaigns. Pomelli's workflow begins with Business DNA, from which campaign ideas are generated, followed by editing to produce market-ready assets. The update also adds a Photoshoot option capable of turning still images into video-ad assets. Access is currently in public beta, limited to English-language users in the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand; users in Europe, including Germany, currently cannot access it. Importantly, Pomelli allows free use of the new Photoshoot capability during beta. The development illustrates how AI could reduce manual production work in marketing, though photographers and studios may feel pressure as AI-generated visuals move closer to parity with professional services.

Google Unveils Pomelli AI Marketing Tool for SMEs
Pomelli is Google's AI marketing tool for small and medium-sized businesses, currently a Google Labs experiment. A public beta, in English, is available in the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, with deployment in Europe (including Germany) not yet accessible. Pomelli uses DeepMind-powered AI to derive a brand DNA by analyzing a company’s website URL, identifying brand identity, tone, CI colors, and fonts.

The tool also supports creating apps via Google’s AI Studio, including the Vibe Coding Experience and Gemini-based Annotation Mode for app editing. The workflow—Business-DNA, Campaign ideas, Editing—is documented by Google in The Keyword and pitched as a tool to help SMEs lacking large creative teams or budgets.
