How Stagedly works from upload to buyer-ready gallery

Whether you need digital staging, furniture removal, or a hybrid workflow, this step-by-step guide shows exactly how to go from raw photos to marketing-ready visuals.

Three simple steps to polished listing photos

Use AI for instant previews, then call in our human editors for final polish.

Laptop user uploading a property photo

Upload the room photos you want staged or decluttered.

Staging styles palette

Pick staging styles, notes, or objects to remove.

Before and after staging preview

Review AI renders and request human-polished edits.

  1. 1

    1. Prep & upload

    Drag photos from your camera roll or MLS. We automatically check resolution, orientation, and brightness so you only submit shots that will stage well.

  2. 2

    2. Set instructions

    Choose a staging style, furniture density, or removal mode (mask specific items or wipe the entire room). Add buyer personas, color notes, or links for inspiration.

    Pro tip

    Short prompts work best: e.g. “Modern coastal, keep the fireplace, remove boxes on the left.”

  3. 3

    3. AI staging pass

    In minutes you'll see side-by-side before/after previews plus downloadable JPG/PNG files sized for MLS and social. Each render includes metadata so you can track what changed.

    Pro tip

    Toggle between staging and removal services per image without re-uploading.

  4. 4

    4. Human polish & delivery

    Submit revision notes directly on the photo. Our editors fine-tone lighting, perspective lines, and texture realism before final delivery.

    Pro tip

    Every order includes one complimentary revision within 24 hours.

Photo prep

Checklist before you upload

Strong input photos dramatically improve realism. Keep this list handy for every shoot.

  • Shoot wide and level. Aim for 12–18 feet back.
  • Turn on interior lights and open blinds for balanced exposure.
  • Capture every marketing angle: entry, living, kitchen, bed, bath.
  • Note permanent fixtures that must stay (fireplaces, built-ins, windows).
  • Upload at least 2000 px on the shortest side for crisp staging.
