FAQ / BEFORE THE PROJECT
A few practical answers.
What is YourThumb?
YourThumb is a YouTube thumbnail workflow that starts from your video context, develops the thumbnail direction, gives you a creative checkpoint, and then renders the final image.
Is this just an AI image generator?
No. The workflow is designed around thumbnail decisions first: hook, visual direction, hierarchy and approval before the final render.
What are Frame, Asset and Copycat?
Frame starts from a real video moment, Asset starts from a visual you want featured, and Copycat starts from a reference thumbnail for structural inspiration.
Can I edit the result?
Yes. YourThumb can continue to Canva for further editing when that option is available for your account.
