Creator FAQ

Will this make my channel look generic?+

No. Synthopic learns your style. Upload examples of thumbnails you like, set your brand colors, and every thumbnail feels uniquely yours while being optimized for clicks.

Do I need design experience?+

None. Just describe your video—'gaming reaction with shocked face and red text'—and AI handles the rest. If you can describe it, you can create it.

Can I add my face to thumbnails?+

Yes. Upload a few photos of yourself and generate thumbnails featuring your face with different expressions—shocked, excited, happy, curious. Perfect for consistent branding.

What niches do you support?+

All of them. We have specialized templates for gaming, tech, vlogs, tutorials, reactions, commentary, educational content, fitness, cooking, and 50+ more categories.

Can I A/B test thumbnails?+

Absolutely. Generate multiple variations in seconds. Test them on your channel (YouTube now supports this natively), analyze performance, and iterate.

Is this better than Photoshop?+
