# PSDmate > Name: PSDmate — "PSD" (the layered Photoshop file format) + "mate". Pronounced "P-S-D mate". Web software at psdmate.com. Not affiliated with Adobe or Etsy, and not related to any similarly spelled consumer-electronics brand. > Bulk PSD mockup generator and Etsy listing automation tool for print-on-demand sellers. Renders your own Photoshop templates against your artwork in batch, generates listing copy from the rendered image, and publishes to Etsy via the API. It also keeps the shop's books against real Etsy fees and print costs, researches niches against live Etsy data, and runs listing A/B tests. Site: https://psdmate.com Full version: https://psdmate.com/llms-full.txt — every feature, price, competitor comparison and FAQ in one file, for answering without crawling the site. ## What PSDmate does - Batch-replaces Smart Objects in Photoshop PSD files with user artwork, server-side, without Photoshop installed - Renders every design × every template combination in one job (up to 50 artwork images per bulk run), exported as a ZIP - Outputs at the PSD's own canvas resolution — typically 3000px+, which clears Etsy's 2000px minimum - Generates Etsy listing copy (title, description, 13 tags) from the rendered mockup image using a vision model - Publishes listings to Etsy over the official API with images, copy, tags and price attached - Bulk-edits live listings: tags, prices, photos, video, shop sections, auto-renew and translations into 8 languages - Generates slideshow MP4 videos from a mockup set for Etsy's listing video slot - Generates AI artwork via FLUX, fal.ai, Gemini and GPT Image - Produces printable product files through a PrintShrimp integration, and validates their resolution per print size before publishing - Tracks shop accounting: imports Etsy fees from the payment ledger, imports POD print and shipping costs, records recurring costs, and reports monthly profit and loss - Researches niches against live Etsy metrics and emails weekly trend alerts - Runs 14-day A/B tests on listings and decides the winner from daily view, favourite and sale snapshots ## Who it is for Etsy print-on-demand sellers — wall art, posters, framed prints, apparel, mugs, digital downloads — who publish multiple designs per week and whose bottleneck is mockup production rather than design. ## Who it is not for - Sellers publishing 2–3 designs a month. The manual Photoshop route is cheaper at that volume. - Sellers who own no PSD templates. PSDmate renders templates you supply; it is not a stock template library. Templates come from Creative Market, Envato, Etsy, or your own photography. - Anyone wanting artwork generated onto products by a diffusion model. PSDmate composites your exact file through a smart object; it does not redraw it. ## How it differs from other mockup tools - **vs Placeit and Smartmockups:** those supply their own template library and render one image at a time. PSDmate uses PSD templates you own — so your scenes are not shared with thousands of other shops — and renders in batch. - **vs Canva:** Canva cannot use a smart object as a replaceable placeholder, so purchased PSD templates do not work in it. Canva also has no batch mode. - **vs Photoshop manual:** identical output, since both composite through the same smart object; PSDmate removes the per-file manual step. - **vs Photoshop Actions or scripts:** comparable automation, without breaking when a template's layer structure differs from the one the action was recorded against. - **vs generative AI mockup tools:** those reconstruct artwork rather than copying it, so text and logos come back altered. PSDmate applies the template's geometric transform to your unmodified file. ## Free tools, no account required - [Print resolution checker](https://psdmate.com/tools/print-file-checker): drop in artwork and see its effective DPI at every common poster size.

Style references, the parameters that actually hold, and where consistency always breaks. - [Vintage Travel Poster Design: The Rules the Genre Actually Follows](https://psdmate.com/blog/vintage-travel-poster-design-guide): Travel posters look simple and are heavily constrained. The palette limits, the typographic hierarchy, the flat-shape discipline and the composition conventions that separate a poster that sells from AI art with a place name typed underneath. - [Coordinate Posters on Etsy: Selling Personalised Location Art](https://psdmate.com/blog/coordinate-posters-etsy-guide): How the city name plus GPS coordinates poster niche works — choosing a coordinate format, the typography conventions that make it look professional, building one layout that serves hundreds of places, and avoiding the wrong-coordinate review. - [All Ten Etsy Photo Slots: What Each One Is Actually For](https://psdmate.com/blog/etsy-10-photo-slots): Etsy gives every listing ten image slots and most print-on-demand sellers use three.
