Maze
A maze from where the reader is to where the post promises: a start tag (the reader's situation) at the entrance, the goal tag at the exit, a real maze with exactly one way through, and the detours the post warns about listed as dead ends. Tracing the way out is the story of the post.
When the AI picks it
MarketiQ’s Creative Director favours the Maze for posts that start a conversation or entertain, when the message is one sharp insight, steps or a process or a contrast (this, not that). 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 start is the reader's situation and the goal the outcome the post promises, both from the post; dead ends are the pitfalls it names.
Visual rules
- A tinted board with a real maze drawn in ink lines (open at the top-left entrance and the bottom-right exit), a brand dot at the start and a brand star at the goal; a brand start tag above the entrance, a dark goal tag below the exit, optional dead-end chips beneath; logo and a dark reply pill at the foot.
