Google Labs' new creative engine takes your brand guidelines, color palette, or even a rough description and generates campaign-ready visuals, social templates, and design variations in minutes.
Try Pomelli
Pomelli is built for marketing teams and small businesses that need to move from brand strategy to production-ready assets without waiting on a design queue. If you have a brand book gathering dust in a Google Drive folder, this tool will actually operationalize it. The free tier is genuinely useful for solo operators, but agencies and multi-brand teams will want the Pro plan for collaboration and full template access. It is not a replacement for a senior designer on complex campaigns, but for the 80% of routine creative work, it is remarkably capable.
Three tiers. The free plan is functional, not a teaser.

At $19.99/month, the Pro plan undercuts most comparable tools like Canva Teams ($13/user but with less AI depth) and Adobe Express Premium ($9.99 but without the brand-brief-to-asset pipeline). The value proposition is strongest for teams generating high volumes of on-brand content.
What Pomelli actually does well.
Feed it a brand doc, a color palette, or even a rough text description. Pomelli extracts the visual identity and generates production-ready assets without manual setup.
Lock in your fonts, colors, logo placement, and tone. Every output stays on-brand, which is the single biggest pain point this tool solves compared to generic AI image generators.
One prompt generates social media templates, presentation slides, banner ads, and email headers simultaneously. You get a full asset kit, not a single image you then have to resize six times.
Pro and Enterprise tiers support team collaboration with shared brand profiles, comment threads, and approval workflows. Feels like a lightweight creative project management layer.
Native integration with Google Slides, Docs, and Drive. Assets export directly into your existing workflow. Also connects to social media platforms and CMS tools for direct publishing.
Enterprise tier includes performance tracking on generated assets. See which creative variations drive engagement. Still early, but the feedback loop between generation and performance data is promising.
Request multiple variations of any asset with a single click. Useful for A/B testing creative or presenting options to stakeholders without going back to the drawing board each time.
The UI follows Google's Material Design language and feels immediately familiar. Non-designers can operate it without training, which is the point. The learning curve is measured in minutes, not hours.
Pomelli is not for everyone. Here is where it fits best.
You need social posts, flyers, and email banners but cannot justify hiring a designer or paying for a full creative suite. Pomelli on the free tier covers the basics. The Pro tier at $19.99/month is cheaper than a single freelance design gig.
Your design team is a bottleneck. Pomelli lets marketers self-serve on routine creative while keeping everything on-brand. The collaboration features mean designers can set guardrails and approve outputs without doing the production work themselves.
Store multiple brand profiles and switch between them instantly. Generate first-draft creative for client presentations in minutes instead of hours. The Enterprise tier with analytics and dedicated support makes sense for agencies running 10+ brand accounts.
You are pre-revenue and need to look professional across every touchpoint. Describe your brand in a few sentences, pick some colors, and Pomelli builds a consistent visual identity you can deploy immediately. It is not a brand strategy tool, but it makes whatever strategy you have look polished.
Where Pomelli falls short. These are real constraints, not nitpicks.
The free plan restricts template access and customization options significantly. You can test the concept, but you will hit walls quickly if you need anything beyond basic social graphics. This is clearly designed to funnel users toward Pro.
If you need highly specialized visuals (medical illustrations, technical diagrams, detailed infographics with precise data), Pomelli is not the right tool. It excels at marketing creative, not information design. Do not expect it to replace a skilled illustrator or data visualization specialist.
Everything runs in the cloud. There is no offline mode, no local processing, and no way to work without a stable connection. For teams in regions with unreliable internet or organizations with strict data residency requirements, this is a real blocker.
The deepest integrations are with Google Workspace. If your team runs on Microsoft 365, Figma, or Adobe Creative Cloud, the integration story is thinner. Social and CMS connections exist but feel secondary to the Google-native experience.
This is a Google Labs experiment, not a GA product. Google has a well-documented history of sunsetting Labs projects. If you build your entire creative workflow around Pomelli, you are accepting the risk that it could be deprecated. Plan accordingly.
Start with the free tier. If it clicks, Pro at $19.99/month is a no-brainer for any team producing regular marketing content.
