AI YouTube Thumbnail Maker
Describe your video and Ridvay generates a bold, editable YouTube thumbnail — big readable text, strong contrast and space for your face or screenshot — at the right 1280×720 size.
Swap the text and colours, drop in your image, keep a consistent channel look with a Brand Kit, then export a PNG ready to upload.
Try a prompt like: “A high-energy YouTube thumbnail for a video “5 productivity apps that changed my life”, bold yellow text”

Everything you need to make your YouTube thumbnail
Design from a prompt
Describe what you want; Ridvay generates a complete, editable design — layout, fonts, colours and copy.
Fully editable
Change any text, colour or element, move things around and add images — it is a real design, not a flat picture.
On-brand automatically
Save a Brand Kit (colours, fonts, logo) and Ridvay applies it as it generates.
Multi-page
Build carousels, decks and documents, then export the whole set as one PDF.
Export anywhere
Export to print-ready PDF, or PNG and SVG — or share a live link.
Refine in chat
Say “make it bolder” or “add a section” and the design updates — no manual fiddling.

Click an example to generate it in Ridvay Studio.
