Image Ads

One photo in. A batch of ads out.

Pick a format, a layout and a message. Chrishi generates the scene, places your prepared product photo on it unchanged, and sets your words in real type. Compare versions side by side and keep the ones you like.

The brief

What you decide, in five steps

The brief page asks five questions, in this order. The credit cost is shown before you generate.

  1. Format

    Single image for the feed, or Stories & Reels full-screen.

    In the app: “Which format?”

  2. Layout

    Pick a kind of ad, then a layout from the library. The layout decides where the photo, headline, price and button sit.

    In the app: “Choose your layout”

  3. Subject

    A product from your catalog with its photo, or, for software and services, a name and the facts you give.

    In the app: “What are you advertising?”

  4. Message

    Your headline, offer and price in your own words, or free suggestions that stay inside your approved claims.

    In the app: “What should it say?”

  5. Sizes and destination

    Pick one or more sizes, where the ad is meant to run, and the page people should land on.

    In the app: “Sizes and destination”

The fidelity rules

The AI paints the scene. The rest is exact.

An Image Ads picture is built from three separate pieces. Only one of them comes from a model.

  1. The scene Painted by the AI: empty, with no letters
  2. Your product photo Placed as it is, never repainted
  3. Your words Typed by Chrishi, in real type
  4. The finished ad Text kept inside Meta’s safe area

  • Your product is placed, not repainted.

    For physical products the AI paints an empty scene and your prepared product photo is placed on it as it is. The one exception is clothing shown worn on a model, which is an AI edit of your photo.

  • Your words are typed, never drawn.

    Headline, offer, button text and price are set as real text by Chrishi’s layout software. The image model is told to draw no letters at all.

  • Prices come from your text, never invented.

    A price is printed only when you wrote it, in the price fields or in your brief. A fixed rule reads it and no model guesses, so a number you never wrote cannot appear.

  • Placement follows layout rules.

    Where the headline, price, chips and logo sit is decided by layout rules, not by a model’s judgement. When something is wrong, the rule can be fixed.

Four sizes

Formats and Meta keep-out zones

Meta’s phone interface covers the right edge and the bottom of every ad. Layouts place your text inside the safe area, in every size.

  • 1:1 1080²

    Right 64 px · bottom 86 px

  • 4:5 1080×1350

    Right 96 px · bottom 189 px

  • 9:16 1080×1920

    Right 96 px · bottom 346 px

  • 16:9 1920×1080

    Right 77 px · bottom 108 px

Striped areas are where Meta’s buttons and captions cover the ad on a phone. Layouts keep your text out of them.

The four ad sizes, where each runs, its pixels and the width of Meta’s keep-out strips
Size Runs in Pixels Keep-out right Keep-out bottom
1:1 Square Feed 1080² 64 px 86 px
4:5 Portrait Feed 1080×1350 96 px 189 px
9:16 Tall Stories & Reels 1080×1920 96 px 346 px
16:9 Landscape Feed 1920×1080 77 px 108 px

In Canvas the strips are drawn on the artboard so you can see them. They are guides only and are never exported with your ad.

Side by side

Compare, don’t guess.

Put versions next to each other instead of picking one and hoping. Each comparison varies one thing on purpose.

  • Compare backgrounds

    One message, set against up to 3 backgrounds in up to 4 sizes. Same words, different settings.

    • 1 to 3 backgrounds
    • 1 to 4 sizes
    • One message

  • Compare messages

    Two or three selling messages across up to 3 backgrounds, in exactly one size. One ad per cell.

    • 2 to 3 messages
    • 1 to 3 backgrounds
    • One size

The backgrounds are Studio, Soft gradient and Natural setting. They are instructions to the AI, not guarantees: two scenes made from the same instruction can still differ in detail.
