    Ad Creative Image Generator – Multiple Products

    Problem Statement

For marketing teams and agencies, the usual process involved: Coordinating with designers, Briefing photographers or influencers, Manually editing creatives for each product, Repeating the same steps for every variation, Waiting days just to test new ad visuals. This made it hard to: Launch ads quickly, Test multiple products or angles, Maintain consistency across campaigns, Scale creative production efficiently. The client needed a way to generate professional, lifestyle-style ad creatives automatically, without relying on manual design work.

    The Solution

    Automation Overview

    We built a sub-workflow that automatically generates AI-powered lifestyle ad creatives for multiple products using existing product and influencer images. The system pulls images directly from Google Drive, processes them through an AI image generation model, and outputs polished, ready-to-use ad creatives — all without human intervention.

    Automated Image Intake from Google Drive

    The workflow monitors structured Google Drive folders containing product images and influencer or model images. This allows marketers to simply upload images to Drive and let the system handle everything else.

    Image Download & Base64 Processing

    To prepare images for AI processing, the automation downloads each image, converts it into base64 format, and packages the images into clean payloads. This ensures compatibility with the AI image generation model.

    AI Lifestyle Image Generation (Core Intelligence)

    Using Google Gemini, the workflow generates a realistic lifestyle photograph where a person naturally showcases the product. The AI prompt is carefully designed to avoid artificial-looking outputs and maintain a premium, authentic feel suitable for paid ads.

    Multi-Product Support

    The sub-workflow is built to handle multiple products in one execution. For each product, input images are processed independently, and a unique lifestyle creative is generated. This makes it ideal for catalogs or batch ad production.

    Automated Output Management

    Once generated, each final image is uploaded automatically to a dedicated “ImgGenerated” folder inside Google Drive, organized and ready for immediate use.

    Integrations & Connected Systems

    Google Drive – Image storage, intake, and output management; Google Gemini – AI-powered image generation; n8n – Workflow orchestration, looping, validation; Image processing logic – Base64 conversion and payload handling. Everything runs as one seamless creative pipeline.
