Amazon A+ content images with AI: module sizes and a fast workflow

Who can use A+ and what it is for

Standard A+ Content is free for sellers enrolled in Amazon Brand Registry, which requires a registered, live trademark. Premium A+ unlocks larger modules, carousels, hover hotspots and video, and is free once a brand has five approved Standard A+ submissions in the trailing twelve months, under the current eligibility rule. A+ replaces the plain product description with rich modules below the listing, so its job is different from the main image and the gallery above it. The gallery proves what the product is. A+ proves why it is worth choosing: how it is built, how it is used, what it is made of, and how it compares with the rest of your own range. It must not repeat the bullets, must not name competitors, and must not carry pricing, shipping claims, warranty terms or promotional language such as a discount or a limited offer. Put copy in the module text fields in Seller Central, not burned into the images, so it stays readable on mobile and searchable.

That division of labour decides your image plan. The main image, covered in our companion article, must be pure white with about 85 percent fill and no text. A+ images, by contrast, are allowed lifestyle scenes, backgrounds and context, as long as they show the real product accurately. The most common beginner mistake is to reuse the gallery as the A+ page: same hero, same lifestyle shot, same close-up, in a different order. A shopper who has already seen those images learns nothing, and the A+ page earns no extra scroll. Build A+ images for questions the gallery has not answered yet.

Standard module sizes, the planning table

Generate at or above the module size, in RGB colour, JPEG or PNG, and keep each A+ image under about 2 megabytes, which is the file guidance most 2026 guides report for A+ uploads. Do not upscale a small image to 970 by 600 and hope the builder forgives it: text in the image will blur, edges will soften, and a shopper on a phone will see the blur before they read the benefit. Generate the header at its wide ratio, generate the squares as squares, and never crop a wide header into a 300 by 300 square after the fact, because the crop will cut the product or the context that made the header work. One product master, many ratios, generated deliberately, is faster than one ratio repaired five times.

A fast workflow: master, five modules, one review pass

Step one, write the product master and the five questions A+ must answer, in order: what is it, what is it made of, how is it used, what makes it different, and which variant should I pick. Step two, generate one image per question, at the module ratio for that question: header for what it is, three squares for material, use and difference, and comparison columns for variant choice. Step three, write module text in Seller Central, short and factual, 280 to 350 characters per evidence-style module is a useful target from 2026 guides, and never a copy of the bullets. Step four, the review pass: open the draft on a phone, check that no image repeats the gallery, no text is burned into an image, no competitor is named, and no claim appears that the listing does not support. Step five, submit and wait for approval before announcing the page anywhere, because a rejected module can hold the whole page.

For a catalogue, batch by module, not by product. Generate all headers in one session, all squares in the next, and all comparison columns last, with the same lighting words and the same background words across products in a comparison. That discipline is what makes a comparison chart believable: if one product is shot in warm evening light and another in cold studio light, the chart reads as two different brands. Build the page in the product studio, check every size in the marketplace photo specs tool, and check any image with a photorealistic person against the AI disclosure guide before upload. The small-shop photo guide and the remove-background guide show the same master-first method for single images.
