Tool #1: PatternedAI
If you sell products with patterns, whether that’s a canvas or throw pillow, finding high-quality designs can be a challenge. Thankfully, Patterned AI makes this task a breeze.
PatternedAI is a remarkable tool that generates seamless patterns based on text inputs. In other words, you describe the pattern you want, then boom, the AI generates it. All in a few clicks.
The great thing about this app is that it creates patterns without the need to upload any images. Only a small description is required to work its magic.
And, it generates patterns incredibly fast. Within seconds, anyone can create a pattern that could take hours, even days, for a seasoned pro to complete. (Imagine how many patterns you could make in 1 hour?)
There are also plenty of pre-made patterns you can choose from their app.
You can print patterns onto multiple items, from custom phone cases and books to digital posters and stickers. Overall, it’s the perfect tool for beginners who want to sell pattern-styled products.
One effective way to monetize patterns is by offering digital paper packs that customers can easily print at home for their DIY crafts.
Achieving this is simple with marketplaces like Etsy. When a customer buys a digital pack, Etsy automatically sends them the digital file via email. From order to fulfillment, the sale is almost hands-off.
You could also monetize patterns with physical products. Custom phone cases, hoodies and canvases are all excellent product ideas.
PatternedAI isn’t a cash machine. But, it does open a world of possibilities to earn real profits.

Tool #2: DeepAI
DeepAI is an app with range of different tools designed to create and edit images. But, one feature we’re particularly impressed by is their reolorization tool.
This feature turns black-and-white images into color. The snazzy AI technology adds vibrant colors to old photos to give a fresh and captivating look.
People love the idea of bringing old photos back to life. With this in mind, one way to monetize this feature is to sell recolorized photos.
For example, vintage photos, in the form of products like posters and canvases, are in high demand. Using recolorization, you can stand out from competitors who often sell the same photos in black and white. Remember, the goal is to offer something unique that customers can’t find elsewhere.
You can sell recolorized photos as digital posters, or expand to physical products such as a canvas that customers can plant on their home walls.
Doing this also sets you apart from the competition, who typically sell photos in black and white.
Other similar AI tools like Colorize and Vance recolorize photos in distinct styles. Each AI tool has its own artistic interpretation, allowing you to create a diverse range of products based on the same image. Customers appreciate variety, and offering them multiple options can boost your sales.
Tool #3: AI Image Enlarger – Enhance Image Resolution
When it comes to selling custom products, customers care about the print quality. Yet, a lot of sellers miss the mark on this and wound up with unsatisfied customers.
Before printing a photo on a product, you need to have the correct dimensions. However, the image file size generated from AI tools is typically small (512 x 512 pixels). As a result, the image will appear stretched or pixelated when printed onto more oversized items like t-shirts.
And that’s AI Image Enlarger comes in.
With this tool, you can effortlessly enlarge small images while preserving their quality. By doing so, you can guarantee high-resolution images that can be printed on various custom products of any size.
How can this help you make money?
Paired with the abovementioned tools, you can use it to enlarge the images you create. Download your image file from either PatternedAI or DeepAI, then enlarge it with this app for a big boost in size—and quality!
Again, this AI tool isn’t a cash machine, but incredibly useful in creating high-quality products.
Tool #4: Public Domain Directories
Imagine that you run a print-on-demand store. You want to sell posters, but first need to find a photo that isn’t copyrighted. Where do you look?
Our go-to recommendation is the public domain. Photos in the public domain have no protection under copyright and are free to use commercially. In other words, you can sell them for cash!
Free public domain directories such as Wikimedia and Free-Images provide thousands of photos to choose from.
Now, not every photo is worth selling. However, popular niches including vintage photos (such as the Prohibition era), Japanese art (like Ukiyo-e), and floral art are all profitable ideas to test. Sell your photo as a digital product, such as a poster or printable artwork. Physical products like a cushion or canvas are also fantastic choices.
The key is to take inspiration from photos you find, then consider how you can transform them into unique products. You might just strike gold.
