Quick visual guide

Keep the product record clean before generating creative.

Treat the product as your source of truth

Creative Studio uses the saved product information as context. Keep the name clean and specific, describe what the product does, choose the closest standardized product type, and select the actual pricing model. Price can be a compact range when one offer has several plans. Remove page-title phrases such as “Official Store,” “Verified,” shipping claims, or promotional suffixes.

Choose useful product images

  • Lead with a clear product-only or product-in-use image.
  • Keep different aspect ratios when they contain useful information; previews should fit the image instead of permanently cropping the source.
  • Remove screenshots, logos, badges, or landing-page captures that are not actual product photography.
  • Three images are helpful but not required. One strong image is better than three unrelated ones.

Add audience and angle context

An audience describes who the ad is for. A marketing angle describes why that person should care now. Save several focused options rather than one vague paragraph, then select the best combination during generation.

In both Image Ads and Copywriter, Add Audience and Add Angle open on the AI generator with a quantity of 1. Each generated audience or angle costs exactly 5 credits; the audience price includes its portrait with no separate image-generation fee. Choose Add manually to enter your own description without showing both forms at once, and use Back to generate to return.

Inspect every saved product datapoint

The Tartol super admin sees a violet database icon in the Intel column on every product row. It opens a read-only Product Intelligence modal with the canonical catalog record, pricing and identifiers, atomic landing-page marketing evidence, saved generation fields, AI targeting analysis and diagnostics, image provenance, and record timestamps. Missing values are shown as not captured instead of being filled in or inferred at view time.

Landing-page evidence is seller-page context, AI targeting is a separate classification, and IVOC is customer-voice research behind its own orange icon. The Product Intelligence viewer is an internal super-admin diagnostic surface and is intentionally excluded from the public REST API and MCP; those surfaces retain their authorized standard product contracts. Tartol Agent can explain where the viewer is and how to read it, but it cannot open or mutate internal product intelligence.
