Thumbnail intelligence for YouTube

Thumbnails that look like your channel, not generic AI art.

Paste a title. BrandIQ plans the hook, composition, and visual style, then renders a photorealistic 16:9 thumb with your face and your brand DNA when you want it.

Hook logic

Title on YouTube. Tension on the thumbnail.

Title promises the journey. Hook drops you into the moment.

How it works

Three steps. No template hunt.

01

Train your look

Upload past thumbnails and an optional face photo. BrandIQ learns palette, layout, and hook habits.

02

Generate from a title

Strategy picks layout and a curiosity-gap hook. The image model renders a full 16:9 thumb in about two minutes.

03

Ship and iterate

Two variants for A/B tests. AI edits for hook tweaks. Export 1280×720 when you are ready.

Style Memory

Your channel's visual DNA, learned once and applied every time.

Upload 3–10 past thumbnails. We extract contrast, typography, layout bias, and hook rhythm, then steer new generations so they feel like yours, not a template farm.

  • Vision analysis on every upload: colors, layout, emotion, text density
  • Optional reference images in generation when “Use my channel style” is on
  • Competitor analyze for layout inspiration, not copying subjects
