The problem it solves

Briefing a designer for every ad variation, waiting on drafts, and hunting through shared drives for the right file version slows down every campaign launch. Requests pile up faster than creative can turn them around.

Who it fits

A marketing team or agency that produces ad creative for multiple clients and campaigns on a regular schedule.

How it works

  1. On a set schedule, the system checks the spreadsheet for rows marked as queued
  2. It works through a batch of requests, building a detailed prompt from each row
  3. An AI image model generates the ad creative
  4. The image is saved into the right client and campaign folder in Google Drive
  5. The spreadsheet is updated with the status, file link, and timestamp
What you get

Ad images ready for every campaign

Your queued campaign rows turn into finished ad images, filed neatly by client and campaign inside Google Drive.

What you get

A finished ad image filed in the correct client and campaign folder, with the spreadsheet row updated to show it is done.

What you need

A Google Workspace account and an AI image generation account such as OpenAI.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
