How to use a visual template
The hardest part of a build-in-public post is not the copy. It is that you have nothing to look at. A number on a card gets ten times the attention a plain tweet does, and making that card is exactly the work you skip. Templates are pre-designed layouts: metric highlights, year-by-year journeys, feature checklists, comparisons, pricing tables, revenue breakdowns and more. Fill the fields yourself or let the AI fill them from your project context.

Good to know
Template fields follow your project language, not the app language. Some templates carry bespoke motion, like the staggered outcomes list, and export as short video instead of a still. Templates render natively at each platform's ratio where the layout supports it, so a vertical version is a real re-render, not a letterboxed crop. Recently used templates surface first, so your regulars stay one click away.
Why does my template render vertically when I selected several platforms?
Forgefy picks the most vertical ratio among the platforms you chose, because vertical crops down to square and landscape cleanly, while landscape to vertical loses most of the frame.
Can I edit a template after generating it?
Yes. Click Edit and you land straight back in the pre-filled form.
