Pyramid
A stacked pyramid of three to five levels — brand colour at the apex deepening toward the base, Roman numerals inside, dotted leader lines out to each level's name and meaning.
When the AI picks it
MarketiQ’s Creative Director favours the Pyramid for posts that teach or start a conversation, when the message is a list, steps or a process or one sharp insight. 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
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 base is the foundation everything else depends on; the apex is the payoff.
- Level names are two or three words; notes are one plain sentence each.
Visual rules
- Trapezoids cut with clip-path in one brand ramp (apex to base), Roman numerals inside.
- Dotted leaders with dots run from each level to its name and note in a column beside the pyramid.
