The situation

Fake screenshots should not take an afternoon.

Creating a believable social post usually means setting up dummy accounts or faking one in a design tool.

  • The challenge

    “I need a realistic post, fast.”

    Setting up dummy accounts takes time you do not have.

    What we did

    Pick a platform and type.

    Select a platform, fill in the fields, and download.

  • The challenge

    “It has to look real.”

    A generic mockup is easy to spot.

    What we did

    Accurate platform styling.

    Verified badges, reaction layouts, story style formatting and bubble layouts copied from each platform.

  • The challenge

    “I do not want another account.”

    Sign ups, watermarks and fees get in the way.

    What we did

    Nothing in the way.

    No account, no watermark and no cost.

  • The challenge

    “I need it in different styles.”

    Different projects need different looks.

    What we did

    Light and dark.

    Light and dark themes across the generators, with a high resolution PNG at the end.

The intervention

Built to get out of the way.

Every decision was about removing steps between an idea and a finished screenshot.

Eighteen generators.

Nine social post formats and nine messaging app styles, each replicating the real visual design of its platform.
