Show HN: Smmai – a "vibe design" generator for social media banners

Hi, thanks for checking it out.

Creating social media graphics is a five-minute task that can stretch into hours. It requires complex tools and basic design skills. Not everyone has time to learn Figma or Photoshop for a single post.

SMMAI works differently: instead of manually building one layout, it instantly generates hundreds of ready-made options. You pick a format, add an image and text (or generate them with AI), and get a grid of templates in the right sizes (square for feed, vertical for stories, horizontal for posts). You scroll, pick one you like, tweak it a bit, and you're done.

I think of it as "vibe design": design becomes more like browsing. No building from scratch, just choosing what already works.

You can try it here: - Web app: https://smmai.app/ - iOS app: https://apps.apple.com/app/smmai-social-media-templates/id64...

More info: https://home.smmai.app

I'd especially appreciate feedback from people who: • create or ship a lot of social media content • work on tools for generative / layout design

A couple of questions: 1. Does this "many options first, polish later" approach actually help you move faster, or does it just create noise? 2. What would you want to automate next around social posts (copy, asset management, brand constraints, something else)?

Happy to answer questions about the product, how it works, and where I'd like to take it next.
