Live Demo

Paste text, see images immediately

No prompt engineering. Paste your article and let the AI read, plan, and draw — all in one step.

AI will first do Shot List planning, then generate 4 16:9 editorial watercolor illustrations on white background.

Features

Not a filter. An artist that reads first.

From text to visuals, every step is "designed" — except that designer is Ximage.

Consistent Style

Pure white background, black jittery line art, red-orange-blue accents — all illustrations for an entire article look like they came from the same pen.

Reads Articles

Ximage first extracts concepts, emotions, and structure, then decides where illustrations are needed, what to draw, and how to draw.

Shot List Planning

Before drawing, produces a Shot List — like a director's scene breakdown — that outlines what each image should show and why.

Batch Generation

Generate 4 illustrations per run, covering a full article's visual needs in one go — no prompt-by-prompt grind.

Handwritten Annotations

Automatically overlays natural handwritten labels on each image, letting the visual explain the concept rather than just decorate the page.

Ready to Use

High-quality PNG one-click download, seamless pasting into Notion, blogs, Newsletters, Substack.

Real feedback from bloggers, Newsletter creators, and independent writers.

"Before, finding illustrations for each article took two hours. Now it takes five minutes, and every piece has a consistent style readers instantly recognize as mine."

"The smartest thing about Ximage is that it reads articles — it draws not for decoration, but to truly explain what each paragraph is saying."

"The Shot List feature is a game-changer — it makes me think clearly about what I want readers to take away from each section before a single line is drawn."
