AI agent for visual content
The text is ready and the picture isn't, so the post doesn't go out. The agent builds the artwork from your templates and your photographs, prepares a version for every channel, and brings you a couple of options. It doesn't invent a look — it holds the one you already set.
What a visual agent does
- Builds post covers, cards, stories and thumbnails for text that has already been approved.
- Keeps everything looking like it came from the same place: colours, type, logo and spacing come out of your brand kit rather than being chosen again each time.
- Prepares a version per channel — square, vertical, cover, preview — so nothing gets cropped through a face or a word.
- Updates the numbers in your layouts when the price list or the menu changes, checking each one against your source rather than the previous version.
- Brings two or three options and stops there: the pick and the print run stay with you.
Processes that run themselves
A playbook isn't a button — it's a process with a condition that starts it. These three get set up most often.
Artwork for an approved post
A post has been signed off and is waiting on a picture
- Take the template that fits the format it will go out in
- Pick a photograph from your own folder of work, not from stock
- Build a version for every channel the post is going to
- Show you the options and stop until you choose
The price list or the menu changed
You send through new prices or a new item
- Find every layout the old figure appears in: price tags, menu boards, window, website
- Update them and check each price against what you sent, not against last season
- Separate what has to be reprinted from what can simply be swapped in the feed
- Hand the set back to you for review before anything is printed
A seasonal launch
Two weeks out from the start of a seasonal offer
- Assemble the whole set: cover, stories, price tag, board, profile picture
- Check it all reads as one thing and still works on a small screen
- Show the set in one go rather than a picture a day
- Leave the final pick and the launch to you
Where the agent stops
- It works inside the brand kit and templates you set, and does not invent your identity. With no brand kit it assembles a plain starting point and asks you to settle it, instead of deciding on your behalf.
- It doesn't use photographs you have no rights to. Shots of the work, the food, the room and the people are yours to take; it won't draw in something that never existed.
- Nothing goes out without your approval: the agent takes it to a finished option, and the choice, the print run and the publishing stay with you.
- Where an image carries a legal requirement — a disclosure, a registration number, a mandatory warning, an ingredient list — a person checks it. The agent places what you gave it and flags the spot as needing your sign-off.
FAQ
We don't have a brand book. Will the agent invent a style?
No, and that's deliberate: a look invented on your behalf is one you'll end up redoing. It assembles a plain set of templates from what already exists — your logo, your sign, your past posts — shows it to you and asks you to confirm it. From then on that's the frame it stays inside.
Where do the photographs come from?
From you. Shooting the work, the food, the room and the people stays with you and your staff. The agent crops, arranges and captions your shots, but it won't generate a haircut that never happened or a dish that isn't on the menu — in a local business that reads instantly.
Are the layouts good enough to print?
The agent takes them to a finished file at the right size with bleed allowed for, but choosing and sending to the printer stays with you. For anything complicated it's still worth showing the printer the file before the run.
How much of my time does this take?
Choosing between two or three options is a minute. Sending new prices or a photo from the shift takes seconds. The time goes in once at the start, when you confirm the templates and say what inside them can never move.

The problem isn't that you can't write posts. It's that between cuts there's no time and no headspace. Here's what comes off your plate entirely, and what stays as a weekly approval.
