Good videos, weak thumbnails

You're good at making videos – not at Photoshop. And every option for getting better thumbnails costs either time, money or your face.

  • You're not a designer

    Hours in Canva, and it still doesn't look like the channels you admire. Meanwhile the next video is waiting.

  • Designers cost and wait

    Around $18 and four days per thumbnail on Fiverr. That adds up fast – and holds back your upload schedule.

  • AI tools don't look like you

    Plastic skin, extra fingers, a face that isn't quite yours – and a subscription with credits that expire.

How it works

Three steps, then it's just titles

You design your channel's look once. After that, every new video is a title and a click.

  1. Set your style

    Pick a layout and colors – or upload your logo and get matching colors. Add a photo of you (the background is removed automatically), or skip the face and use a still from your video.

  2. Paste your title

    Get six thumbnails with short, punchy headlines. Change any word, add icons, flip which side you stand on.

  3. Pick and download

    Preview them at phone size – the way viewers actually see them – and download a ready 1280×720 image.

One style, every video

Viewers learn to recognise you

Same layout, same colors, same you – only the headline changes. That's how bigger channels build a look people click on without thinking.

Six variants from one video title. The silhouette is where your own photo goes.

Your look, not ours

Layouts × colors = your style

Four layouts and ten ready-made color palettes you can mix freely. Or choose your own colors – or upload your logo or an old thumbnail and let it pick matching ones. It warns you if a headline would be hard to read on a phone.

FAQ

Questions

Is this an AI image generator?

No. Your thumbnails are built from your own photo and your own style. Software handles the tedious parts – removing the background and suggesting short headlines – but the result is your design, not a generated image.

Why is it so cheap?

The heavy work – removing the background and drawing the thumbnails – runs on your own computer, in your browser. That means almost no server cost per thumbnail, so there's no reason to charge you like a big subscription service.

Will it really look like me?

Yes – it uses your own photo. Nothing about your face is generated or changed; the background is simply removed and you're placed in your style.

Do my photos or videos get uploaded?

No. Background removal and picking stills from a video both run in your browser, on your own computer, so your photos and videos don't leave your device.

What do I need?

A photo of yourself facing the camera (a phone photo works) – or no face at all: a still from your video or any image of your own. And a web browser; nothing to install. It works best on a computer.

Can I use my own fonts and colors?

Colors: yes – pick your own, or let it read them from your logo. More fonts and layouts are planned.
