Creating content is more than just a means to convey your message. It's a dynamic experience where we seamlessly traverse various mediums to engage with brands. From perusing eye-catching visuals to participating in enlightening discussions and immersing ourselves in informative videos, content consumption has evolved into a multi-faceted journey.  

Navigating the intricacies of this diverse content landscape demands the adaptability of AI on multiple fronts. While many AI solutions excel in specific domains such as text, images, or video generation, they often struggle to connect the dots in content generation and brand personalization across different mediums. 

This is where Typeface’s multimodal content personalization solution steps in. Engineered from the ground up to handle the nuances of diverse content types, our innovation is further enhanced with the introduction of Brand Kit and an expanded array of multimodal content templates. This kit functions as the central hub for your brand, binding together all the elements that define your identity, including your unique tone, brand values, image styles, color palettes, and more. You can engage with AI using a variety of media types – spanning text, images, and voice – all within a single conversation while ensuring the consistent expression of your brand's personality.  

Let’s delve into the components of the Brand Kit and explore the new multimodal templates that will simplify content creation across diverse mediums. 

Brand Kit: The First Multimodal Hub for On-Brand AI Content   

The Brand Kit is your go-to tool for maintaining a consistent brand identity across all your marketing materials and mediums. It's designed to keep everyone on your team aligned and streamline content writing and approvals. Let's break down what the Brand Kit offers for images and text: 

Image Styles: Teach Typeface’s AI your brand's visual identity by sharing examples of your existing on-brand images. Typeface will learn the textures, patterns, and characteristics from these images, such as the color of the room, the style of furniture, background scenery, strokes of an artist. Once you train a custom style based on a set of past images, you can then apply that style to any new images you create. Here are few examples of image styles in action: 

  • Ability to generate images that match your brand’s visual style (e.g., minimalist, realistic, cinematic) without prompt engineering 

  • Create images styles for specific projects or campaigns, such as a spring-themed imagery for Mother’s Day or beachy color palette for summer campaign 

  • Generate all images within the same style for brand consistency throughout your product catalog. Brand Kit ensures your social media posts, ads, emails, and more share a cohesive visual identity across all content generated. 

💡 Pro tips for how to set up image styles: For best results, we recommend: 

  1. Upload 10-15 images (JPEG or PNG) for one style. 

  1. Select images that show similar style, texture, or composition. For example, it could be photos of a living room with wooden floors, artwork on walls, and warm lighting; it could also be a series of artwork in specific styles, such as watercolor. 

  1. Feel free to define multiple image styles. For example, you may want to define an image style for a certain quarterly campaign theme. 

  1. Within an hour, Typeface will accurately train your unique AI to reflect your brand’s color tones and aesthetic as part of the image style. 

  1. To use an image style in an image prompt or Image Studio, use “Pick your style” above the prompt bar to select the image style from your brand kit. Note, you can select only one image style per generation.

Image Style: Warm and Light Home Interior 

2) Text Values and Tones: Incorporate your brand's distinctive voice into your content. Values represent your company's core principles, such as “openness, create community, or play as a team” while Tones are the personality of your communication style, such as “conversational, bold, or straightforward.” Typeface will learn your company's unique writing style and apply it to the copy it generates. Here are a few examples in action: 

  • Your emails will align with your company values (think inclusive language, minimal jargon, or no gendered language like “guys”) 

  • Blogs will have a consistent company voice, no matter who writes them 

  • Social media posts will strike the right conversational tone to engage your audience effectively 

 💡 Pro tips for how to set up text values and tones: For best results, we recommend: 

  1. Add up to 5 Values and 5 Tones. 

  1. Set Values as nouns (e.g., Empathy, Curiosity) and Tones as adjectives (e.g., Bold, Optimistic). 

  1. Keep the length of your descriptions at 1-2 sentences.
