Model-native thumbnails

Thumbnails aligned with the video promise

Generate thumbnail concepts where headline text is rendered by the image model: keeping title and thumbnail aligned before launch.

From video to thumbnail

Concepts grounded in the actual video

Concepts from your upload

Multimodal context from your video suggests thumbnail directions that match the hook, tone, and audience promise, not generic stock frames.

Model-rendered headline text

The image model renders the headline inside the thumbnail. Review variants, refine the prompt, and export or publish when ready.

Aligned with your metadata

Thumbnails share the same meaning-first analysis as your titles and descriptions, so packaging stays consistent across YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, and more.

Common questions

Can I edit thumbnail text after generation?

Yes. Regenerate with updated prompt guidance or pick another variant from the studio history.

Do I need a YouTube connection?

You can generate and download thumbnails without publishing. Connect YouTube when you want to push a chosen thumbnail to a video.

How many seeds does a thumbnail cost?

Seed costs depend on the model you select. See the Pricing page for the live catalog: thumbnail generation shows the cost before you confirm.
