How Tools Work

Input → Output

Every tool follows the same simple flow:

  1. Add your content — Paste text, enter a URL, or upload a document
  2. Customize — Apply your brand kit (optional)
  3. Create — Get your visual in seconds
  4. Edit — Refine with natural language prompts

Credits Per Tool

Most tools use 1 credit per visual. Multi-slide tools (carousels, presentations) use 1 credit per slide.

See Understanding Credits for details.

Tips for Choosing the Right Tool

Know your platform. Each platform has specific dimensions that perform best. Use the platform-specific tool for optimal results.

Think about your goal. Want engagement? Quote cards and carousels work well. Need conversions? CTA cards and testimonial graphics.

Start specific. Instead of creating generic graphics, use specialized tools. A "LinkedIn Carousel" will outperform a generic "social post" on LinkedIn.

Explore related tools. If you're creating a YouTube video, you might also need the Channel Art Generator or End Screen Generator.
