Use cases
Made for marketing, design and storytelling
Mockups that look like the real app, so your audience focuses on the message — not on a screenshot that feels off.
Ads & social creatives
Illustrate your product in a familiar chat for TikTok, Reels and social media ads — clearly as a mockup, not a customer quote.
App & product demos
Show your feature inside the conversation it lives in: order updates, invites, support flows, notifications.
Stories & social posts
Tell a story the way people actually talk — text threads for skits, comics, newsletters and threads.
Presentations
Illustrate a flow in a pitch, a UX review or a design spec instead of a grey placeholder.

Where a mockup could be taken for a real conversation, label it as an illustration. Details are in our Terms.
