API release card
A developer release on a dark grid: the endpoint as a method chip and a mono path, the request in a code editor with line numbers and quiet highlighting, the headline, and what the endpoint unlocks in checked lines. Developers see exactly what shipped and how to call it — the code is the announcement.
When the AI picks it
MarketiQ’s Creative Director favours the API release card for posts that announce news or teach, when the message is one sharp insight, steps or a process or a list. 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
Made for Software & apps. The Director offers it only to brands of that kind, so it never turns up for a business it does not suit.

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 endpoint and every code line are quoted exactly from the post — never write code the post does not show.
- Keep secrets out: no real keys or tokens; the headline says what developers can do now.
Visual rules
- A dark night ground with a faint grid: kicker and logo at the top, the headline in the heading face, a method chip in the brand colour beside the mono endpoint.
- A near-black editor with window dots, a tab underlined in the brand colour, line numbers and mono code with brand-tinted keywords; checked 'what it unlocks' lines and a brand button below.
