What you get
- Requires Adobe Creative Cloud subscription ($23+/month)
- Manual smart-object editing per template, per photo
- PSDs go stale — fixed lighting, fixed scene
- You need Photoshop skills + time
Photoshop mockup PSDs require Adobe ($23/month), Photoshop skill, and 10 minutes per mockup to drop your design into smart objects. Hauld does the same job in 60 seconds with no Photoshop needed.
Try Hauld freePSD mockup templates were the workflow before AI was good enough. They're still around, but the time-per-photo math kills them — 10 minutes in Photoshop vs 60 seconds in Hauld, for output that's actually more varied.
No — Hauld output is 2048px JPG, photo-realistic. PSD templates were photos to start with; AI now renders comparable quality directly.
Yes — Hauld photos are standard JPGs. Open in Photoshop for any final touch-ups.
PSDs let you tweak shadows, backgrounds, etc. Hauld's 5-scene variety per batch covers most needs; for surgical edits, take the output into Photoshop.
