Prompts

Just describe the asset

Copy a prompt, paste it into your agent and get the file back. Starting with “Using Templated” tells the agent to use your templates, not its own image generator.

AI templates

Describe it. Get an editable, API-ready template.

Not an AI image generator: every text, image and shape becomes a layer you can change in the editor or through the API.

Describe what you need or upload a reference image, and the AI Template Generator builds it in the editor. Videos start from the Promo, TikTok and Intro presets.

Claude, ChatGPT, Codex or Cursor design the template with the create_template tool and render it in the same conversation.

Import your designs from Canva, or upload a screenshot of an existing design and AI rebuilds it as a template with layers.

Generated once. Rendered identically every time.

Agents for your customers

Give every user their own sandbox

Putting an agent in front of your customers? Scope each MCP session by external ID. Every list, render and edit is restricted to that customer's templates.

MCP server URL
https://mcp.templated.io/mcp
  ?externalId=CUSTOMER_123

The scope is enforced on the server, not in the prompt, so each of your customers' agents only sees their own templates.

  • Per customer
  • Per folder
  • Enforced on the server

What our customers say

People love how great our product works and how we're always there to help

Rated 4.7

"Brilliant piece of software. Reasonably priced (vs Canva's outrageously expensive API), and despite a few intricacies with the editor, a really fully-featured document generation API. Really great support too from Pedro, the founder!"

"Templated is a game-changing innovation in programmatic design! So many use cases here, this a better option than Canva because they make their API private to enterprise customers only. Can't to see what the future has in store for this amazing company."

"Templated.io is basically a an API-first graphics content designer which makes it super easy to programmatically create document and image assets. It has most basic features and it is robust and "just works". The Make.com app really makes it super simple to incorporate into automation workflows. What sets templated.io apart the most is Pedro and his super fast and service minded, solutions oriented responses."

Frequently asked questions

Can I use Templated with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or Codex?

Yes. Templated runs an MCP server that works with Claude (web, desktop and mobile), Claude Code, ChatGPT, Cursor, Codex and any other client that speaks MCP. In Claude and ChatGPT, find Templated in the connector or plugin directory, click Connect and sign in. Everywhere else, add the server URL https://mcp.templated.io/mcp and sign in when prompted. Step-by-step instructions are in the setup guide.

Is Templated an AI image generator like Midjourney or DALL-E?

No. Templated doesn't generate random images. It generates templates with editable layers that you can reuse, customize, and automate at scale. AI helps you build the template once; every render after that fills the same design with your data, so the result looks the same every time.

Does MCP replace the API?

No, it sits on top of it. Use the REST API when your code renders on a schedule or from inside your product, and MCP when you want an agent to create templates and render them from a conversation. Both work on the same templates, return the same files and use the same credits.

Do agent renders cost extra?

No. Renders triggered through MCP use the same credits as renders from the API or the editor. One meter, one price, on every plan including the free tier.

Is it safe to connect my agent?

Yes. Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor connect through OAuth: you sign in to Templated and never paste an API key into a chat. You can disconnect from your assistant at any time, or regenerate your API key to revoke every connection at once. If you put an agent in front of your own customers, scope each session by external ID or folder. The scope is enforced on the server, so a customer's agent can never see or touch another customer's templates.

Can AI create video templates?

Yes. Describe the video and the AI Template Generator builds an animated template, with presets for promo videos, TikTok and Reels, and brand intros. Your agent can do the same through MCP, setting entrance, loop and exit animations on each layer, then render the result as an MP4.

Does it work with n8n, Zapier or Make?

Yes. Templated has integrations for n8n, Make and Zapier, plus inbound webhooks and spreadsheet uploads for bulk renders. Zapier, Make and n8n can also call Templated from their own AI agents.

When is Templated not the right fit?

When every image is a one-off. Templated is built for designs you reuse: the same layout filled with new text, images and data, by your code or your agent. If you need a single illustration, a photo that doesn't exist yet, or art that never repeats, an AI image generator is the better tool.
