Why Automate Social Media Graphics?

Managing social media for a brand or agency means creating dozens—sometimes hundreds—of images every week. Product announcements, quotes, promotions, event graphics, and more.

With Templated, you design your templates once, then generate unlimited variations automatically. Connect to your CMS, spreadsheet, or marketing tools, and watch your social media graphics create themselves.

How It Works

Three steps to automated social media graphics

  1. 1

    Choose or Create a Template

    Pick from our gallery of 25+ social media templates or design your own using our drag-and-drop editor. Add your brand colors, fonts, and logos.

  2. 2

    Connect Your Data

    Use our API, Zapier, Make, n8n, or upload a spreadsheet. Map your data fields (text, images, colors) to template layers.

  3. 3

    Generate at Scale

    Automatically generate personalized images whenever new data arrives. Download directly or get webhook notifications when renders complete.

Multiple ways to automate your social media image generation

Generate Social Media Images via API

A simple POST request is all it takes to generate your social media graphics

fetch('https://api.templated.io/v1/render', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: {
    'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_KEY',
    'Content-Type': 'application/json'
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    template: 'your-social-template-id',
    layers: {
      headline: {
        text: 'New Product Launch!'
      },
      subtext: {
        text: 'Available now at 20% off'
      },
      product_image: {
        image_url: 'https://example.com/product.jpg'
      },
      background: {
        color: '#FF6B35'
      }
    }
  })
})
.then(res => res.json())
.then(data => console.log(data.render_url));

What our customers say

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

Rated 4.7

"Business pressures now demand almost a 24x7 operation. The difference between choosing one SaaS product or another isn't just down to the technical capabilities of each, but down to their responsiveness when it doesn't quite work. In this case, an issue blocked us from being able to use the platform as intended. Within minutes of using the live chat, the issue was not only reproduced but correctly identified. Within the hour, the hot fix had been coded, tested and applied - unblocking the bottleneck and allowing us to carry on working. This is exceptional and the reason why I can't recommend this company enough - I'm so impressed and very grateful for their hard work. Keep it up!"

"We were looking for tools to help our users create and edit images with templates. We tried options like Canva, but Templated.io turned out to be the perfect choice for our product. It offers an easy API to render images, and its embed editor lets us provide our users with a full editing experience without having to create complex frontend components. It's a really great tool!"

"We integrate Templated.io into our portal for custom flyer generation. The editor is amazing, and the Canva import tool is exactly what we were looking for. Massive shoutout to Pedro for the technical support. He responds incredibly fast and fixes issues in no time. Highly recommended!"

"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.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."
