The Reality Check

Don't Gamble with Your Brand

AI should remove the grunt work, not the creativity. Stop pulling the lever on a slot machine and start designing with power.

Slot Machine vs Studio

Pikzels gives you a completely finished image. If you don't like the text placement, you roll again. PopCreate gives you layers you can actually move.

The Control

Generative Layers

We believe AI should generate the parts, not the whole. Generate a background. Generate a face. Then compose them yourself for perfect layout.

  • βœ“ Object Inpainting: Change just the shirt, not the face.
  • βœ“ Brand Consistency: Keep your colors and logos.

The Strategy

Generation is Cheap.
Insights are Priceless.

Anyone can generate 100 images. PopCreate helps you know which one will actually get the click before you waste a video on it.

Common Questions

Everything you need to know about PopCreate.

How is PopCreate different from ThumbnailTest or Pikzels?

PopCreate is an all-in-one platform. While ThumbnailTest only does A/B testing and Pikzels focuses on AI generation, PopCreate combines a full professional editor, automated A/B testing, and analytics in one integrated solution. No need to pay for multiple tools.

Do I need design skills to use PopCreate?

Not at all! Our professional editor is built for creators, not designers. Use smart templates, Picasso generation, and one-click tools to create professional thumbnails in minutes.

How does the A/B testing work?

Simply upload multiple thumbnail or title variants. PopCreate automatically rotates them on your video, collects performance data, and uses statistical analysis to determine the winner. When a variant reaches statistical significance, we notify you.

Is it safe to connect my YouTube channel?

Absolutely. We use YouTube's official OAuth API and only request the minimum permissions needed. We can only update thumbnails and titlesβ€”we cannot delete videos or access sensitive data.

What AI models power PopCreate?

We use Google Nano Banana for high-quality thumbnail generation and our in-house Picasso Lite for fast iterations. All running securely on our infrastructure.

Can I try PopCreate before paying?

Yes! Our free plan includes full editor access, 10 Pop-C Credits per month, and 3 A/B tests. No credit card required. Upgrade when you're ready to scale.
