AI-generated images in Social Hub can contain spelling errors and lower-than-expected visual quality across all supported platforms, including Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and Twitter/X. This is a known AI model limitation — upload your own image or refine your prompt to publish clean, on-brand visuals today.

## 🔎 What the issue looks like in Social Hub

When you schedule or publish a post through **Social Hub** and let the system auto-generate an image, the result may show:

- **Spelling errors** — misspelled brand names, garbled words, or nonsense characters rendered inside the image.
- **Poor visual quality** — distorted faces, warped objects, low detail, or inconsistent style.
- **Off-brand visuals** — for example, a luxury-travel post generates a cartoonish or low-resolution image that mismatches your brand style.

This affects AI-generated images only. Images you upload manually to Social Hub are not affected.

## 💡 Why this happens

Social Hub uses third-party AI image generation models to create post visuals from your prompt or post copy. These models share well-documented limitations:

- AI image models **cannot reliably render text** inside images — letters, words, and logos are frequently misspelled or distorted.
- Output quality varies based on the prompt, subject matter, and the model's training data.
- The same limitations apply across every platform Social Hub publishes to, not only Facebook.

This is a known limitation of the underlying AI technology, not a bug specific to your Social Hub account or any single social platform connection.

## 🛠️ How to work around the issue today

Choose one of the following options to avoid publishing low-quality or misspelled AI images.

### Option 1: Upload a manually-created image

1. Open **Social Hub** and create or edit your post.
2. Remove the AI-generated image from the post.
3. Click **Upload Image** and select a file from your computer or media library.
4. Schedule or publish the post.

### Option 2: Use an external design tool and import the result

1. Create your image in an external design tool such as **Canva**, Figma, Photoshop, or any image editor of your choice.
2. Export the finished image to your computer.
3. In Social Hub, click **Upload Image** and select the exported file.
4. Schedule or publish the post.

### Option 3: Review and regenerate the AI image before scheduling

1. In the Social Hub post editor, click **Regenerate** on the AI image.
2. Edit the prompt to **avoid requesting text inside the image** — no logos, signs, slogans, or written words.
3. Keep the prompt focused on a single subject and simple scene.
4. Click **Preview** to check the image for spelling errors or visual distortions before scheduling.
5. Replace or regenerate until satisfied, then publish.

Your post will publish with the image you confirmed in the preview.

**Heads up:** If you edited a post while working around image issues, verify your per-platform captions are still correct — a recently resolved bug could have reverted them to the base caption.

## 📋 Status and known limitations

AI image quality and in-image text rendering are **ongoing known limitations** of current third-party AI image models. There is no committed timeline for a fix, because the underlying constraints are model-level rather than specific to Social Hub.

If image quality is important to your workflow:

- Submit feedback or a feature request through Search Atlas Support so your use case is captured.
- Vote on or watch related roadmap items if they are published.
- Use a manually-created or externally-designed image in the meantime (see workarounds above).

This article will be updated if model improvements or a dedicated fix become available.

## ✅ Related known issue (resolved)

If your AI-generated **captions** were describing social media character limits instead of your topic, this was a separate bug that has been **fixed as of May 2026**. Regenerate your captions to get on-topic results.

This caption bug is unrelated to the AI image quality limitations described above.

## ⚠️ When to contact Search Atlas Support
