Brief in. Ad out. No designer needed.
I built a tool that does exactly this using Lovable as the UI and n8n handling all the backend magic via webhook.
User fills in the brief → n8n generates the image → ad appears right in the browser.
That's it. That's the product.
Clean, fast, and the kind of thing that makes a marketing team ask "wait, can we use this tomorrow?"
If you're still manually briefing designers for every ad variant, we need to talk.

Nice work!
What if the worst part of a creative project isn't the design, it's the brief that started it?
I built Dead Brief Resurrector on Melius — a workflow that takes a vague, broken client brief and turns it into a structured actionable direction, then immediately generates visual explorations from it. No manual prompting between steps. One input, full creative direction out.
The test brief I fed it:
"We need some nice pictures for our new luxury skincare line. It should look expensive and natural. Maybe some plants? Something that feels high-end but also very organic."
That's a real brief. Designers receive versions of this every week.
What the workflow did with it, 12 nodes, fully autonomous:
Ingested the vague brief as raw input
Ran a brief autopsy — identified every missing element: no audience, no tone, no visual direction, no KPIs
Resurrected it into a full structured brief: target audience (conscious luxury consumers), tone (serene, sophisticated, grounded), brand name (Gaia Essence), visual direction (Organic & Earthy Luxury)
Generated a 4-image moodboard across ingredients, environment, textures, and human element
Generated 3 distinct visual concept explorations: Brutalist Zen, Botanical Alchemy, and Terracotta Minimalism
My Melius experience:
The agent-first approach genuinely changes how you work. Instead of building nodes manually, you brief Mel the way you'd brief a creative director — in plain language — and it lays the canvas out for you. Every prompt is editable at the node level, so you can steer without rebuilding. The image quality surprised me, especially on the Botanical Alchemy concept. Where it still needs work: the agent occasionally needs explicit approval gates to chain text outputs into image nodes correctly — a small friction point in an otherwise smooth workflow.
Try the workflow yourself:

What brief would you feed it?
The detail and the precision is there, nice work
AI-Powered B2B E-commerce Lookbook Generator
As an E-commerce specialist, I often see retail brands struggling to create high-end, "Retail Ready" lifestyle imagery for national buyers quickly. I built this Melius workflow to solve that. It’s an automated canvas that takes raw product images, processes them through specialized AI agents with tailored prompts, and outputs publication-grade B2B lookbook assets in minutes instead of weeks.
My Process Steps:
Input Node: Uploaded base product layouts (e.g., sustainable retail packaging).
Melius Agent Prompting: Configured a creative agent to analyze the asset and apply a high-end, editorial lifestyle background with strict whitespace rules.
Refinement Node: Passed the generated output through an upscaling and color-grading node to match national retail compliance and premium aesthetics.
Feedback on Melius:
Melius completely turns the thrash of traditional prompt-and-pray AI workflows into a structured visual canvas. Being able to see the node-by-node execution allowed me to tweak specific parameters instantly without losing the design direction. The speed at which it generates production-ready imagery is a game-changer for digital marketers and agency owners!
Thanks!
