Design showcase

This is what the engine makes.

Eight trades, eight cards. Every one came out of the same generator that designs a paying advertiser's postcard, at the size it prints: the full 12 by 6.5 inch solo card, edge to edge.

You give it your business, your offer and your phone number. It gives you this in about a minute, and you keep generating until one is right.

Every business on this page is real and none of them is a customer: we designed each card without being asked, and nobody paid for it or signed off on it. Real results go on /customers when the first drops ship.

At print size

The whole front, edge to edge.

The whole front of the card is yours, edge to edge. The back carries the postal address and nothing else, so no other business appears anywhere on the piece. No header strip, no category grid, no tile someone else paid for. The white square is the QR that tracks your scans, held clear at print size, which is why the design works around it instead of fighting it.

Emergency trades are scanned for one thing: does this person fix my exact problem, and will they pick up. The service list earns its space here, and the phone number is sized to be read from across a kitchen.

Every trade

One engine, eight personalities.

A gym card and a salon card should not look like the same template with the colors swapped. These were generated from nothing but each business's own details, so compare the loudest one to the quietest one.

Healthcare fails when it looks like a brochure. One offer, one action, and enough air that it reads as a practice rather than a promotion.

Seasonal urgency without a countdown gimmick. The deadline sits in the offer, so the layout never has to shout.

A high-ticket trade cannot lead with price, so it leads with a free inspection and the proof that makes one worth booking.

Proof the engine can do restraint. One offer, a lot of quiet, and the typography carrying the brand rather than a list of treatments.

The loudest card in the set. Same engine and same geometry as the salon, opposite energy, which is the whole argument for generating rather than templating.

Every realtor mails the same headshot and sold sign. This one was briefed away from that template entirely, and sells a number instead of a face.

A seasonal service where the product is a season, not a visit. The card sells the free Saturday, and the offer does the rest.
