Welcome
What ANVL is, what it is for, and the shortest path from an empty account to something you can show someone.
ANVL is where your brand lives and where everything you make starts from it. You give it your colours, your typefaces, your logo and a sense of how you sound — once — and after that a presentation, a post or a report comes out looking like you without you having to make it look like you.
Onboarding starts on its own the first time you log in. You don't need to go looking for it.
Everything reads from your brand kit
The brand kit is the middle of ANVL, not a settings page you fill in and forget. When you ask for a deck, the deck is built from it. When you ask for a social post, the post is built from it. Change a colour there and the next thing you make uses the new one.
That is also why the first ten minutes are worth spending properly. A thin brand kit gives thin results, and the fastest way to a good one is to let ANVL read a site you already have.
What you can make
Content Creator builds the things you would otherwise open a design tool for:
- Decks
Pitches, sales decks, reports, and short summary or comparison decks. On screen in 16:9, or on paper in A4.
- One-pagers
A single page that says the thing, in portrait or landscape.
- Social posts and carousels
Square, story or LinkedIn dimensions, with the frame sized correctly for where it is going.
- Newsletters
A single frame written to be read in an inbox.
You describe what you want and roughly who it is for. What comes back is a draft you edit, not a finished thing you accept or throw away.
It gets better as you use it
ANVL keeps a running memory of what you have made and what you have corrected, and feeds that into everything it generates afterwards. The more you use it, the less you have to explain yourself. That memory is called Superbrain, and most of what is in it is yours to read and correct.
Where to start
Set up your brand first — everything else depends on it, and nothing else takes as little time.
Working with other people
Invite the people you work with, decide what each of them may do, and put them into groups you can send whole pieces of work to for review. That can wait until you have made something worth showing; it takes a minute whenever you get to it.
