Overview

Why teams choose this workflow

1

Stop duplicating templates. Open the canvas editor, design once, and let AI generate perfectly sized layouts for every social platform — Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube, OG, Pinterest, and custom sizes.

2

Each layout is saved as a tab in your editor. Fine-tune any size, then serve them all through one API endpoint with shared variables. Your data stays the same — only the dimensions change.

Deep Dive

The Context

Every social platform needs a different image size — Instagram wants 1080x1080, Twitter needs 1200x675,
LinkedIn uses 1200x627, YouTube thumbnails are 1280x720. Designers spend hours duplicating and manually adjusting
layouts for each platform. Pictify eliminates this entirely.

Open the canvas editor, design your template once
with drag-and-drop elements and dynamic variables, then hit "Generate All Sizes." Our AI analyzes your layout and
intelligently repositions elements — text stays readable, images stay proportional, hierarchy is maintained — for
every platform automatically. Each size is saved as a layout tab you can fine-tune. When you're happy, your template
serves every platform size through a single API endpoint.

This is not a basic crop-and-stretch resizer. The AI
understands your design intent: if horizontal space shrinks, elements stack vertically. If text would become too small,
font sizes adjust. Element IDs are preserved so your variable bindings work across every layout. One set of data,
every platform, pixel-perfect results.

Re-doing edits on every size variant

Step-by-step workflow

1

Open the canvas editor

Create a free account and open the visual template editor. Design your image with text, shapes, images, and variable bindings.

2

Hit "Generate All Sizes"

Click the resize button in the top bar, then "Generate All Sizes." AI creates optimized layouts for Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube, OG, and more — in seconds.

3

Fine-tune and serve via API

Switch between layout tabs to review each size. Make adjustments if needed. Save, and your template is ready — one API call with ?layout=twitter-post renders the right size.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need an account to use this?
Yes — the responsive image generator works inside the canvas editor, which requires a free account. Sign up takes 30 seconds, no credit card required.
How many platform sizes can I create from one template?
Up to 20 layout variants per template, including 8 built-in presets (Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube, Facebook, Pinterest, OG Image) and custom sizes.
How does the AI resize work?
The AI analyzes your canvas layout and intelligently repositions, scales, and stacks elements to fit each target size while maintaining visual hierarchy and readability.
Are variables shared across all layouts?
Yes. Variable definitions are shared across all layouts. One API call with your data renders the correct size based on the ?layout= parameter.
Can I customize the AI-generated layout?
Absolutely. After AI generates a layout, switch to that layout tab in the editor and fine-tune positions, sizes, and styles to your liking.
How do I render a specific layout via API?
Add ?layout=twitter-post (or any layout key) to your render request. Without the parameter, the default layout is returned. You can also pass an array of layout keys to render multiple sizes at once.
