ThanksAI Studio

What it is​

ThanksAI Studio auto-builds mailer creatives with AI. Give it a prompt and it generates a print-ready front image for your postcard, notecard, letter cover, or other mailer type. No design software or graphic designer required.

The generated image is saved as an Image Template and works with all standard campaign and single-send flows. A per-recipient QR code can still be placed on the AI-generated design - thanks.io composites it on top at print time, so every piece gets its own unique scannable code.

How to use it​

  1. Go to ThanksAI Studio in the dashboard.
  2. Click New Generation.
  3. Enter your prompt - describe the mailer, its purpose, style, and any specific elements (e.g., "Real estate postcard for a Just Listed home. Modern design, warm tones, QR code in the bottom right.").
  4. Optionally enter a website URL - thanks.io extracts brand colors, logo, and context automatically.
  5. Select the mailer type (postcard, letter, Notecard, MagnaCard, etc.).
  6. Click Generate. The status changes to generating.
  7. When the status reaches completed, view the generated design.
  8. To refine: type a message in the chat (e.g., "Make it more festive" or "Move the QR to the bottom left"). The design regenerates.
  9. When satisfied, click Save as Image Template.

Tips & best practices​

  • Include brand colors, your CTA, and the intended audience in your prompt - the more specific, the better the first result.
  • For real estate, paste the listing URL directly - thanks.io pulls property details and agent branding automatically.
  • Use conversational refinements for small adjustments ("make the text larger", "use a darker background").
  • If QR code placement is wrong, instruct the AI directly: "move the QR to the bottom-right corner."

Limits & gotchas​

  • Do not navigate away while the status is generating.
  • ThanksAI Studio generates the front image (postcard front, notecard front, letter cover). Message text is configured separately in a Message Template.
  • Per-recipient QR codes are composited onto the generated image at print time - you do not need to manually place them in the design.
