What is the best workflow for Shutterstock contributors?

The workflow is very similar to Adobe Stock:

  1. Upload your image set to the Shutterstock contributor portal.
  2. In Fylio, start a Batch and configure your generation settings — such as keyword count, image topic, location, or other context to help the AI generate more accurate metadata.
  3. Wait for the batch to finish processing.
  4. Review the generated metadata and make edits if needed.
  5. Configure your Autofill settings in Fylio — including categories, AI content labels, editorial settings, and other submission-related options.
  6. Use Autofill to populate Shutterstock’s submission form automatically.
  7. Submit.

This workflow is especially useful for larger uploads, since Autofill helps you avoid manually selecting the same submission settings for every individual image.

For images that need extra attention or regeneration, use Turbo on individual files.
