Step 3: Curate (2 minutes)

Score against the brief. Keep top 20%.

Step 4: Edit on canvas (5 minutes)

Add text, logos, brand assets. Adjust composition.

Step 5: Review (2 minutes)

Check accuracy, brand fit, accessibility.

Step 6: Export (30 seconds)

Export in required formats.

FAQ

Q: Do I need a creative director for AI production? A: For brand work, yes. AI generates options; human judgment selects and approves.

Q: How do I maintain quality at scale? A: Standardize briefs, save winning prompts, use references, and review before export.

Q: Can one person handle high-volume AI production? A: Yes with the right workflow. Vibart's speed (2.1s/image) and canvas editing enable solo production at scale.
