Dynamic Mockups

@dynamic-mockups show me what t-shirt mockup templates are available in my account, filtered to anything with 'crew neck' in the name

Found 12 crew-neck t-shirt mockup templates in your account. Each entry includes the mockup UUID you'll need for rendering, plus the smart-object layer UUIDs where artwork gets placed. For example, 'Classic Crew Tee – Front & Back' has two smart objects (front chest, back full), supports RGB artwork at 4500×5400px, and exports at 4000×4000px by default. All templates are render-ready; you can call the render tool with a public image URL and these UUIDs to generate final mockups.

This example demonstrates the read-only List Mockups tool, which requires no credits. The name filter uses substring matching but exact semantics aren't guaranteed. You'll need the returned UUIDs (mockup ID, smart-object IDs) for the next step—rendering—which does consume credits per output image.

@dynamic-mockups render the 'Classic Crew Tee – Front & Back' mockup using this artwork URL https://example.com/logo.png, place it on the front smart object, and export as PNG

Rendered 1 mockup successfully. The front chest now displays your logo.png artwork composited into the t-shirt template. Export settings: PNG format, 4000×4000px, transparent background preserved where the template allows. The finished file is hosted at https://cdn.dynamicmockups.com/renders/abc123.png (CDN URL valid for 90 days). This render consumed 1 credit from your account balance.

This write action persists a render and debits your credit balance immediately. You must supply a publicly accessible image URL—the MCP cannot upload local files. If the artwork aspect ratio mismatches the smart object, Dynamic Mockups will fit-to-fill by default. Always confirm the mockup UUID and smart-object UUID from a prior List call to avoid rendering the wrong template.

@dynamic-mockups I just designed a new app icon; create a MockAnything mockup showing it on an iPhone lock screen in the 'photorealistic' style, then summarize whether the icon is legible at that size

Submitted MockAnything job (task UUID: xyz789) with your uploaded icon and 'iPhone lock screen, photorealistic' prompt. Generation completed in 48 seconds. The mockup places your icon among other app icons on a simulated iOS lock screen, rendered in 16:9 landscape at 1920×1080px. Examining the result: your icon's central glyph is clearly visible, but the two-line subtitle you included is too small to read at this mockup scale—consider simplifying to a single-word mark for mobile contexts. The mockup consumed 2 credits and is saved to your default collection.

MockAnything is the AI-driven mockup generator (distinct from template rendering). It accepts a text prompt OR an image URL, then produces a scene in ~30–90 seconds. This example pairs the MCP's generation capability with the AI's visual reasoning to give design feedback. Be aware: MockAnything persists the result and may auto-create a collection if none is named, so it has side effects beyond the credit charge.

When Dynamic Mockups speeds up Shopify listing creation

A 3-person DTC brand launching 12 new SKUs needs 60+ product images across apparel and accessories in 48 hours. Dynamic Mockups wins here because the MockAnything tool generates on-model shots from flat artwork in minutes, and the batch render endpoint handles color variants without manual Photoshop round-trips. The API key auth means your designer can trigger renders from Slack or a Notion database without touching credentials. The trade-off: if you need hyper-custom staging (specific lighting angles, props, or brand-specific backgrounds), you'll hit the template library's limits and still need a photographer for hero shots. This MCP pays off when speed and volume matter more than bespoke art direction.

How this MCP cuts revision cycles for design studios

A 6-person agency presents three logo concepts to a client who wants to see each on t-shirts, mugs, and tote bags before choosing. Dynamic Mockups' List Mockups and Render Mockups tools let the team generate all nine combinations in one API call, then swap artwork URLs when the client picks option two and requests color changes. The Get MockAnything Product tool surfaces decoration locations upfront, so you don't render a chest print when the client expected a sleeve. The friction point: if your client wants motion mockups (product spins, unboxing videos), the MotionMockups jobs take 2-15 minutes each and you can't batch them. This MCP shines when you're iterating static product shots across templates, not when you need video at scale.

When bulk rendering beats manual export for POD sellers

A solo Etsy seller with 200 designs needs to refresh product photos twice a year as mockup trends shift (new apparel styles, seasonal backgrounds). Dynamic Mockups' List Catalogs and Collections plus batch Render Mockups tools let you target a named collection, feed it updated artwork URLs from a CSV, and generate 200 new images in one afternoon. The Get Generation Options tool shows current styles and aspect ratios so you don't render 4:5 images when your storefront needs 1:1 squares. The boundary: if your catalog is under 50 items or you only refresh once a year, the API setup overhead (managing keys, writing the batch script) costs more time than clicking through Printful's built-in generator. This MCP pays off when catalog size and refresh frequency make manual work unsustainable.
