Consistent, good-looking graphics help your social content stand out. AI can create backgrounds, illustrations and ideas, while design tools handle text and layout.
A simple workflow
- Define your look: colors, fonts and an image style (e.g. "soft 3D pastel illustrations").
- Generate visuals: create backgrounds and illustrations with AI using that style.
- Add text in a design tool: headlines and logos stay crisp and accurate.
- Save templates: reuse layouts for quotes, tips and announcements.
