Fireside
A 'fireside chat' set as the room itself — two armchairs angled toward each other on a rug, a lamp glowing on the side table between them, the host's and the guest's names under their chairs and the topic in italic above. Promises a relaxed, honest talk rather than a lecture.

When the AI picks it
MarketiQ’s Creative Director favours the Fireside for posts that announce news or start a conversation, when the message is a quote, one sharp insight or a story. It is built first to announce news.
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 person: a founder, a team member or a customer
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
- Host, guest, their roles, the date and place all come from the post — never an invented guest.
- The topic is the conversation's subject, in the post's words or a tight paraphrase.
- No faces: the two chairs stand in for the two people.
Visual rules
- A dark, lamp-lit room: two original armchairs in the brand colour angled toward each other on an oval rug, a small side table with a glowing lamp between them and a warm glow behind.
- The topic in italic serif inside quotes above the chairs (right of them on landscape), each person's name and role under their chair with a small Host / Guest label, and a ruled Date / Time / Where strip.
