🔍 What This Article Covers
If you are using Content Genius, eligible images from your Brand Vault library can be matched to image placeholders in the article during content generation. This article explains how this works.
⚠️ The Current Limitation
Content Genius does not currently have the ability to pull or reference images stored in your Brand Vault. When generating or editing content, the tool will not automatically retrieve logos, product photos, or other brand assets you have uploaded to the Brand Vault. This means that even if your Brand Vault is fully populated for a domain, Content Genius operates independently and will not surface those images during the writing process.
This is by design and applies to all accounts and domains. It is not specific to any individual workspace or website.
💡 Why This Happens
Brand Vault and Content Genius are separate features within Search Atlas. The Brand Vault is designed to store and organize your brand assets for reference and brand consistency. Content Genius, on the other hand, focuses on generating SEO-driven written content based on your keywords, topics, and instructions.
Because these tools were built to serve distinct purposes, image data from the Brand Vault is not wired into the Content Genius generation pipeline. This keeps each tool lightweight and focused on its core function.
🛠️ Workarounds You Can Use Today
While Content Genius cannot access Brand Vault images directly, there are several easy ways to incorporate your brand visuals into the content you produce:
- Copy image links manually: If your Brand Vault images are hosted on a publicly accessible URL, you can copy the direct image link and paste it into your content after generation.
- Upload images after generation: Generate your content in Content Genius first, then manually insert your Brand Vault images into the final document before publishing.
- Use your CMS media library: If you are pushing content to a CMS like WordPress, add your Brand Vault images through the CMS media uploader after the Content Genius draft is published or exported.
- Reference image filenames in your prompt: Include the names or descriptions of the images you want to use within your Content Genius instructions. While the tool will not insert the actual image, the generated content can include placement notes such as [Insert product photo here] to streamline your editing workflow.
