Heatmap
A heatmap: rows against two to five columns, every cell a rounded tile printed with its real value and shaded from a pale tint to deep brand by size, the hottest cell ringed — where the highs and lows cluster, readable cell by cell.
When the AI picks it
MarketiQ’s Creative Director favours the Heatmap for posts that teach or prove a point, when the message is a side-by-side comparison or a number. It is built first to teach.
It reads each post’s goal and shape first, then its own words, the platform and the facts you have, and offers this template only where it fits.
Who it’s for
Any business. Nothing in it assumes what you sell, so the Director can offer it to a software company, a café or a coaching centre alike — whenever the post fits.

What it needs
The Director offers it only when these exist. Without them it simply picks another template.
- A real number from your post or your brand facts
Rules the AI follows
Word for word from the template library. The Director follows the copy rules when it writes into the template, and the visual review checks every creative against the visual rules.
Copy rules
- Every value is a real figure from the post or the brand's facts, written as the source writes it.
- Every cell measures the same thing in the same unit; a missing value stays empty, never estimated.
- The headline says where the highs or lows are, in words.
Visual rules
- A grid of rounded tiles under mono column heads with row names on the left; every tile shows its value and is shaded from a pale tint (low) to deep brand (high).
- The highest tile carries an ink ring; a small low-to-high ramp with the lowest and highest values sits under the grid.
