# Generate campaign images from live data

Combine reusable HTML and CSS with current campaign, product, or audience data to create branded images automatically.

## Key capabilities

- Campaign automation
- Personalized graphics
- PNG, JPEG, and WebP

## Generate an image from HTML and CSS

Send the HTML and CSS that define the image to `POST https://hcti.io/v1/image`. HTML/CSS to Image (HCTI) renders the content in headless Chromium and returns an image ID with a hosted URL.

```json
{
  "html": "<main class=\"card\"><h1>Weekly report</h1></main>",
  "css": ".card { padding: 48px; background: white; }"
}
```

Use browser-supported layout tools, web fonts, SVG, and JavaScript without maintaining your own screenshot browser. Set dimensions, device scale, output format, transparency, and other image options in the same request.

## MCP Integration

Connect an MCP-compatible client to `https://mcp.hcti.io` with OAuth. The tools use the connected organization's HTML/CSS to Image account, permissions, and plan limits.

- The `create_image` tool renders HTML and CSS as an image and returns the hosted image URL. Use it to create visual summaries, social cards, reports, and other application-generated graphics.
