Build your template

Two ways to build, one way to render

Both template types render by ID with named values.

Use cases

Turn agent responses into consistent images

Explore image templates

Summary images

Map fields from an agent response into a fixed visual summary instead of asking the model to write layout code.

Image generation tools

Give an agent named values to fill instead of asking it to write HTML.

Visual response cards

Use fields from an agent response to render branded cards, plans, comparisons, and recommendations.

Content variation

Let agents change copy and imagery while the template preserves typography, spacing, and layout.

Example conversation using the HCTI MCP integration.
Example conversation
MCP connected with OAuth
  1. You: Use the HCTI MCP to list my templates and use the product-launch design with this title, price, and product image.
  2. HTML/CSS to Image: I found the visual-editor template and its named values. I’ll fill them and return the generated image URL.
  3. You: Create an Open Graph image from my blog template with this title, author, and cover image.
  4. HTML/CSS to Image: I’ll render the saved block-based design with those three named values.
  5. You: I published a new report-card design in the visual editor. Render its latest version with these student values.
  6. HTML/CSS to Image: I’ll find the latest published version, fill its named values, and return the generated image URL.

Visual template editor

Design flexible image templates without writing layout code

Start from a preset or blank canvas, arrange blocks, and make the properties that change into named variables.

  1. Choose a preset or blank canvas

    Use a ready-made design or start at the dimensions you need.

  2. Arrange blocks and media

    Build with text, images, shapes, panels, and files from the media library.

  3. Add variables and publish

    Name the editable properties, preview the result, and publish the template for rendering.

Preset library

Start with a ready-made template

Choose a preset, customize it in the visual editor, and save it as a reusable template for your organization.
