  • The ATLAS 300×250 master creative in the centre, with labelled arrows fanning out to the same ad rebuilt at 728×90, 300×600, 160×600 and two different 320×50 versions.

    Evaluating CoDesign MCP performance in resizing

    One approved design, five ad formats, six AI models, the same brief. All six came back with ads you could ship, and Gemini 3.7 Flash did it for thirty cents. Here is what our automated checks can prove about that work, and what they cannot.

    AI Design Agents in 2026: Which One Fits Your Work

    Six AI design agents grouped by the work they suit: app screens, campaign assets, or design inside a larger task. Each entry says what you can still edit once the agent stops.

  • A benchmark run in three parts: the prompt for an "Aurelia" logo wordmark on the left, a list of image models in the middle with Nano Banana Pro selected, and the generated AURELIA wordmark on a transparency checkerboard on the right.

    Introducing IMG.LY AI Benchmarks

    We ran 15 image models through 37 production design prompts and published every score, every prompt and every generated image. Why we built it, why the scores are weighted per job, and the result that surprised us most.
