The cover you almost skipped might be the one that scales.

Evidence in, guesswork out

Score before you ship

Legibility, focus, and clutter in seconds — before the upload.

Thumbnail + title together

CTR is a pair. Test the combo, not isolated assets.

Traffic follows winners

Live A/B with smart allocation — more views on what works.

Private by default

Your channels and tests stay yours. Opt-in only for training.

Validation, not another tool pile

One flow from “which cover?” to “we know which one works” — AI first, real channel tests when you’re ready.

Instant AI readout

Legibility, focus, clutter, and message clarity in seconds — before you ever hit publish.

Pair thumbnails with titles

CTR is a combo, not a solo act. Spot when on-image text just restates the title.

Unlimited live variants

Rotate as many covers as you need. Smart allocation pushes traffic to what’s winning.

Metrics you can act on

Clean scores, rankings, and the why — not a mystery dashboard full of noise.

Seen at real feed size

Preview how it looks tiny on mobile, next to competing videos — not full-screen fantasy.

Built for crews

Editors, freelancers, and multi-channel teams can share projects without Slack chaos.

From draft to decision

Fast pre-publish signals when you need speed. Real A/B truth when you need certainty.

01

Bring a candidate

02

Stress-test it
