01 / How it works

A reference first.
Then your product.

Most ads start from a blank page. These start from a structure that strong ads keep reusing, so the first thing you do is choose, not write.

01

Pick a structure.

A headline, an offer, a review, a question and its answer. Each is a real layout in the Ads studio, drawn live in your colours, not a mock-up.

02

Make it with your product.

Your picture, name and price go in. Your colours and type come from your brand kit. The sample words come too, for free, and every one of them is editable.

03

Spend only where you choose.

Writing words with the copywriter, or cutting out your picture so a headline can sit behind it, is a click of its own, with its price shown first. Layouts, sizes, download, save and publish cost nothing.

02 / The recipes

45 recipes.
Ten kinds of ad.

Named the way media buyers name them. Every preview is an ad the studio made from its own sample pictures and sample words, for an imaginary product. Yours takes your product, your colours and your words.

04 / Ours

Made here.
Start to finish.

A recipe is a layout of ours, with words of ours, drawn on pictures of ours. We read 1,718 strong ads to learn the structures, and kept the structures only: never a brand's artwork, never its copy, never its logo.

What stays yours

The review in a testimonial recipe is a placeholder, because a review is something a customer said and we will not write one. Offers, dates, prices and claims are shown as samples too, and the editor and the test pack list each one as yours to set before the ad runs.

What a recipe cannot do

There is no us-versus-them recipe, because no layout draws a comparison table. Misu does not draw before-and-after results; the two-picture layouts show a look styled two ways, and a result needs your own real pictures.

Questions

Plainly.
Before you ask.

Are these other brands' ads?

No. Every recipe is a Misu layout, drawn by the Ads studio's own engine on the studio's sample pictures, with words we wrote. We studied 1,718 ads to learn which structures strong ads reuse, and kept the structures only: no recipe uses any of those ads' artwork, copy or logos.

What does a recipe cost?

Opening a recipe, laying it out, the sample words, every size, download, save and publish are free. Two steps are metered, and each shows its price in tokens before you press it: the copywriter, which drafts four options of words in your brand's voice, and a cut-out of your picture, which lets a headline sit behind your product.

Does it use my product and my brand?

Yes. Pick a product and its picture, name and price fill the layout. Colours and type come from your brand kit, set under Settings. Without one, a recipe keeps its own look.

Can I make a few at once?

Yes. A test pack takes two to six recipes and makes one ad each for the same product and size, as one set you can download or save to the Library.

Which languages are the sample words in?

English and Swedish. The editor keeps whatever you type, in any language.

How do I get access?
