Limitations to know before generating
- The tool generates images from text prompts, not from uploaded video files
- Text overlays, channel logos, and fine typography should be added in a separate editor after generation
- Faces, hands, and human anatomy may require review for accuracy before publishing
- Thumbnail click-through depends on how well the image matches viewer expectations and video content
- Generated thumbnails are starting artwork; you may need cropping, contrast adjustment, or overlays for final use
- Keep thumbnails honest and aligned with video content to maintain audience trust and avoid misleading clickbait
