[edit: there is a bug] where it doesn't render LaTeX from the scraped website when injecting it into the campaign materials..

As someone who's built a few small tools, I think Pomelli could actually be useful for the bootstrapped founder doing everything themselves. Sure, the output might not match a professional agency, but it beats staring at a blank Canva template at 11pm trying to figure out visual hierarchy.

That said, I'm skeptical about the "brand DNA" claims. Every AI tool I've tried tends to converge on the same aesthetic - that clean, gradient-heavy, slightly corporate look. The real value might just be in speed and removing decision paralysis for non-designers.

This might be a little off topic, but since this thread has people interested in SaaS and tech tools, curious—how do you guys approach launching on Product Hunt? Any interesting strategies or launch stories to share?

Hot take from an AI skeptic: between this, Nano Banana and generative AI integrated into Gmail for repetitive emails, I’m starting to actually use Google’s AI for tasks I hate most.

Google appears to have their AI product game together!

This is just going to breed mistrust, possibly end up hurting businesses. Generally speaking, there are two categories of marketing when it comes to the products I buy.

The first is the quality mass produced products like laptops, cereals, frozen pizzas, etc which have enough revenue that they can hire human marketing to come up with unique content, packaging and ads. The other category, is _high_ quality locally produced goods, like cheese, meats, and some clothing (for example) which do not have enough revenue to hire dedicated marketing staff, but instead use informal marketing. Marketing beyond simple ads in the later case barely matters since there is a lot of trust that the product is quality.

Now there are a lot of garbage products out there, mostly from dollar/discount shops, drop shippers, online shops, and sometimes supermarkets. Margins on these cheap products is usually thin, so if they can save a few bucks with Pomelli they will probably use it.

I'd argue that most people today have become very sensitive and well trained to sniff out poor quality products, its easy to get ripped off. Cues of poor quality could be the design of the packaging including language and fonts, the weight and feel of the product or the brand name when it comes to amazon products sold by Mosptnspg, DSPEAE , Sdarming or whatever lol.

Is the cue to poor quality not going to become Pomelli-style designs? People are already sensitizing themselves to genAI content, and Pomelli is unlikely to produce designs time after time again which are unique enough to bypass a good eye.
