Transparency around AI-generated content
How we use artificial intelligence at CapUniverse.
Artificial intelligence gives us new ways to show caps, beanies and hats in different looks, styles and situations.
For us, it is important to be transparent whenever AI has been used to create or edit an image. That is why we clearly label relevant content at CapUniverse.
Important to know
The products you can buy at CapUniverse are real items from our range.
When we use AI for an image, it may affect elements such as the model, background, surroundings or parts of the visual composition.
The actual product always serves as the basis for the image. An AI-generated scene is primarily intended to help you get a better idea of how a cap, beanie or hat may look when worn and styled.
You will always find the binding information about colour, material, size, features and price on the respective product page.
Real Products. New Possibilities.
A product photo gives you the most direct view of the item. An AI-generated model image can additionally show you how the same style may look when worn.
This allows us to present our products in different outfits, urban settings, seasonal looks or everyday situations.
For us, AI is a tool for providing more inspiration – not for inventing or changing product features.
Our AI images are reviewed
Not every generated image automatically makes it into our shop.
We tailor the creation process to the individual product and review the results before using them. Among other things, we make sure that the product, proportions, way of wearing it and overall impression are as plausible and as close to the actual item as possible.
Even so, an AI-generated image remains a visual interpretation. Depending on the image, colours, proportions or the fit of an item may differ slightly from reality.
For your purchase decision, the product images and information on the respective product page are therefore always the definitive reference.
How can I recognise AI-generated content?
We label images accordingly whenever artificial intelligence has been used in their creation or editing.
This label does not mean that the product shown is artificial or invented. It simply tells you that the visual presentation around the product was created wholly or partly with the help of AI.
Frequently asked questions about AI content
Are the products shown real?
Yes. The caps, beanies, hats and accessories available at CapUniverse are real products from our range.
AI can, for example, be used to show an item on a model or in a particular setting.
What parts of an AI-generated image can be artificial?
Depending on the image, AI may have been used to create or modify elements such as:
- models or people
- backgrounds and locations
- outfits and styling
- lighting and surroundings
- individual elements of the visual composition
Is the product itself generated by AI?
Our AI-generated visuals are based on real products from our range.
AI may interpret how a product appears within a scene. This means that small visual differences can occur. The actual product images and product information on the product page are always the definitive reference.
Why does CapUniverse use AI-generated images?
We want to show you not only what a product looks like, but also how it may look when worn.
AI allows us to present more products in different looks, situations and styles, giving you additional inspiration when making your choice.
How do you make sure the images look realistic?
We review generated images before publishing them and only select visuals that we believe plausibly match the respective product.
We pay particular attention to shape, proportions, how the product is worn and the overall impression.
Why do you label AI-generated images?
Because we want to be transparent about how our content is created.
You should be able to tell whether an image was created through traditional photography or whether artificial intelligence was used in its creation.
Can I rely on the product information?
Yes. The information on the respective product page is always decisive for your order – especially details regarding:
- colour
- material
- size
- features and specifications
- price
AI-generated images are intended as an additional source of inspiration and orientation.
Style meets technology
New technologies are changing the way products can be presented. We want to make use of these possibilities – creatively, transparently and always with the real product at the centre.
So you can not only see what you are buying, but also get a better idea of what your new style could look like.
