Hours of Wasted Time

Spending 2-4 hours per thumbnail in Photoshop means less time creating content and growing your channel

Expensive Design Costs

Hiring designers costs $25-100 per thumbnail, quickly eating into your YouTube revenue

Poor Click-Through Rates

Generic thumbnails get lost in the crowd, leading to lower views and slower channel growth
