Love that you included Integromat in the demo video as well (fellow Integromat fan here 👋 ). ?makers I'm curious about what's the competitive advantage you have over Bannerbear? One of the reasons I stopped using it was the pricing.

@andrew_tsao Besides functionalities, we strive for good UX and ease of use for the users. That's how we want to differentiate ourselves. There are more options for template objects. For example, Stencil can generate various kind of charts and it comes with a data editor to populate data (no-code involved). Our console API also lets you try the image generation process. Same goes with Airtable integration, Stencil allows you to integrate with Airtable directly from the app. We are just getting started, there are lots more coming in the upcoming months and I am really excited to work on them. I wanted to release early to get early feedback from the users. There are many more differences but it wouldn't do justice for the product to list them out here, so I invite you to create an account and explore them. If there are certain things you like improved I am very open to feedback. As of pricing, you can use LETSGOSTENCIL coupon to get 45% OFF for 6 months. That should give you plenty of time to try Stencil. We are planning to release a smaller plan in the future, so stay tune!

@shulhi WOW yea I love the feature to populate data. That's one pain-point I had with Bannerbear as it allowed allowed a very simple horizontal bar chart. Will be trying this out! Thanks for taking the time to answer my question.

Hi hunters! 👋 I've been working on this product for some time and now it is at the point where I am happy and proud to ship it. I am definitely anxious for this launch especially as a solo founder and a first time maker. Stencil allows you to create image templates using our friendly editor and using our API, you can generate variations of the image. Task like designing multiple product posts can now be a breeze instead of repetitive tedious works. This is just one of many use cases of Stencil. Stencil really shines when combined with automation tools like Integromat/Zapier and others to build an automated workflow. Updating your Shopify's product? Stencil can automatically generate image for your product as marketing asset and post it to social media. The possibilities are endless. Here's how it works, 👉 Design a new template from scratch or choose from our selection of preset templates. 👉 Send API request with proper modifications. 👉 Supply an optional webhook. 👉 Your image will be generated. I've put a lot of efforts in ensuring the process can be done without the need of code or plenty of guidance if there is some amount of code involved. 👉 Test API console comes with table of available modifications based on your template design. 👉 Built-in data editor for graph datasets. Yes, we support generating charts! 👉 Errors are user friendly and very detailed. 👉 Documentation are available with guides. There are a lot more features coming especially revolving around automation because that's the area I am most interested in - technology as assistant. ❤️ Please give it a try. I will be around to answer questions. Edit: 🎁 I updated the coupon to include more discount! 45% OFF for 6 months. That should give more users a chance to try Stencil. We will also include a smaller starter plan in the future for low usage users.

@brandoncorbin I watched the video and I really enjoy your review. You really nailed it with the delete key 😁 and all the other UX issues that you're having. I will definitely take all your feedbacks for my next iteration. One thing I want to point out is that the tool is supposed to be no-code/low-code. Integromat/Airtable integrations are where the no-code workflow supposed to be. However, our Integromat app hasn't been published yet (it has been approved but still waiting on Integromat to finally publish it). Thank you for the great review!
