On your phone

You don’t need a computer to ship a personalized image. Start from a template and Create with AI were built so that the whole job — design, personalization, fallbacks, link — happens in a column of questions and buttons, with no dragging on a canvas.

The result is a reusable template. Once saved, its image link renders the same design with each recipient’s details. AI artwork generation is a creation or editing action, not something repeated for every email.

The phone path

Section titled “The phone path”

  1. Open Piksio in your phone’s browser and sign in.

  2. Tap Create a personalized image.

  3. Tap Start from a template for a ready-made design, or Create with AI to answer the questions. Both end on the same result screen.

  4. On the result screen, check the preview, rewrite any Text line, and fill in When a detail is missing. Switch between Sample person and No data (fallbacks) to see both versions.

  5. Give it a Name and tap Save & get link.

  6. Use in email opens straight away: pick your platform, match the fields, copy the link, and tap Test the link.

That’s a complete, live personalized image. Everything after that — pasting the link into Klaviyo, Mailchimp, lemlist and the rest — is your email platform’s job, not ours. See Use in email and your platform guide.

What’s easier on a computer

Section titled “What’s easier on a computer”

The editor is a canvas with panels on either side, so it expects a wider screen — which is why the start screen on a phone offers a template and Create with AI, but not the blank canvas. Use a computer when you want to:

  • drag, resize and rotate layers by hand,
  • work with a long list of layers or fields side by side with the design,
  • build a bar or line chart, or fine-tune wrap and fold effects,
  • import or export a design as JSON.

Everything the editor does to a design can wait: Open in editor on the result screen hands it over exactly as it is, without regenerating anything, whenever you’re back at a desk.

Tips

Section titled “Tips”
  • The AI questions take about a minute to generate. Keep the screen open and the phone awake while it works.
  • Your own photo is a good shortcut on a phone: Use my photo as the background in step 2 takes a picture straight from your camera roll, uses no AI artwork credits (recipient rendering is billed separately), and Piksio offers to match the image size to your photo’s shape.
  • Test renders are free, so test as many times as you like before sending. See Test your link.
