Generate with AI: Pick Chart, Person, or Object for LinkedIn

Generic AI stock scenes — laptops, handshakes, empty desks — read as filler on LinkedIn. Data posts deserve charts built from numbers you already said on the call. Story posts deserve a scene that matches the hook, not a random illustration. SparkVox Generate with AI now opens a short options step before anything renders: pick Auto, Chart, Person, or Object, add optional scene direction, and get a 16:9 image that publishes with the post when you approve.

What each image type does

• Auto — SparkVox tries a chart when your draft has chartable numbers; otherwise a photo with the model's object vs people choice.
• Chart — Forces the chart path using stats already in the post. If nothing can be charted, you get a photo instead and a clear message that chart data was missing.
• Person — Photo built around one or two people (FLUX.2 Klein).
• Object — Photo built around a single recognizable prop — price tag, calendar, whiteboard edge (Google Nano Banana 2 Lite).

Optional direction (up to 500 characters) guides the scene — for example, "marble counter, warm light, no people." Images never render readable text or logos, even if you ask. Your last type and instructions pre-fill when you generate again for the same post.

How to generate from a draft

1. Open a post in your project's LinkedIn content strategy.
2. Click Generate with AI (or Attach media → generate flow in the drawer).
3. Choose a type or leave Auto, add direction if you want, and confirm.
4. Sparky renders in the background while you keep reviewing copy. Regenerating replaces the previous AI image for that post.

Charts are rendered in SparkVox from your draft text — no third-party image model. Photos use a Claude Sonnet hook-anchored brief, then fal.ai. Media is stored on SparkVox (Cloudflare R2) and publishes with the post on approve.

Monthly allowance by plan

Generate with AI does not charge processing minutes. Each successful generation (chart or photo) counts toward a monthly fair-use cap per UTC month (shown in the modal):

• Pro: 25 AI images / month
• Accelerate: 50 / month
• Scale: 100 / month

This is a separate counter from Regenerate. Failures do not count. Full rules: allowances help.

API and comparisons

The Developer API accepts the same image_options shape on POST .../generate-image (async; poll until image_url is set). See API: Generate image.

For when to prefer charts vs photos in your content mix, see when a post needs a chart, not another stock photo. For proof before you publish claims, pair images with fact bank and Strategy behind this post.
