HOW IT WORKS

From theme to Etsy listing in four steps

1

Enter your theme

Vintage motorcycles, gym motivation, faith typography. The AI handles concept design. It creates multiple distinct design directions from your single theme, each with specific text content, color palettes, and style choices optimized for t-shirt printing.

2

Review concepts

See every design before generation. Each concept shows the text content, colors, and style direction. Remove what you don't want, keep what works. Credits refunded for every removed concept. You never pay for a design you didn't approve.

3

AI generates designs

Ideogram V3 creates print-ready PNGs on your kie.ai (ad) account. Text renders accurately. 1:1 square format with white backgrounds, limited color palettes, and centered composition built for t-shirt printing.

4

Download & sell

ZIP with all PNGs. Vectorize with VectorMagic for clean SVG conversion. Package as themed SVG bundles and list on Etsy. The designs are built for clean vector tracing from the start.

WHAT SETS IT APART

Built for t-shirt sellers, not generic AI art

Accurate text rendering

Ideogram V3 renders text in designs accurately. Typography tees, badge text, quotes, all readable and spelled correctly. No more garbled AI text. Every letter, word, and phrase comes out clean and legible, which is the baseline requirement for any text-based t-shirt design.

Review before you pay

See all concepts with text content, colors, and style before a single image generates. Remove designs you don't want. Credits refunded for every removed concept. You control exactly what gets created and only pay for designs you approve.

Print-on-demand ready

Square PNGs with limited color palettes (2-4 colors), white backgrounds, centered composition. Ready for VectorMagic tracing and Etsy SVG bundles. The designs are engineered from concept to output for clean vector conversion, not retrofitted after the fact.
