Designers can't keep up with the volume of images modern marketing needs. AI image generation gets you 80% of the way there — if you know which model to use for which job and how to keep brand consistency across hundreds of assets.

Who it's for: marketers, content creators, social media managers, founders without designers, growth teams shipping creative volume

Example

"Generate a blog hero image for an article about analytics dashboards" → Model recommendation (Flux/Midjourney/Ideogram), prompt with brand context, dimensions for the placement, optimization to WebP, and an OG image variant
