Word sudoku
A letter sudoku, the 'logic puzzle' in letters: a 4×4 or 6×6 grid filled with the letters of one word from the post, some given, the rest blank, with exactly one solution — and once solved, the tinted top row spells the word. A real puzzle that takes a few minutes and ends on the post's subject.
When the AI picks it
MarketiQ’s Creative Director favours the Word sudoku for posts that start a conversation or entertain, when the message is one sharp insight, a question or one product in the spotlight. It is built first to start a conversation.
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
Only your post. It is made from your copy and your brand kit — there is nothing else to prepare.
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
- The hidden word is one word the post uses, 4 or 6 letters with no letter repeated; the reveal line says what it is (our new blend, the class we're adding) without spelling it.
Visual rules
- A white sudoku grid with thick ink box lines and thin cell lines, the given letters large in the heading face, the top row tinted in the brand colour; the letters to use as dark tiles in alphabetical order, a muted rule line and a tinted reveal bar with an eye icon.
- Kicker and website on top, a heading-face title, the logo bottom-left and a dark reply pill bottom-right.
