Ask AI for a poster — and the text finally reads, instead of garbled gibberish

Here's the one-line idea: you type the event name, date and place — and the app hands you a finished poster. Not just a pretty background, but one where the text sits straight and reads. Same thing for a café menu, a sale notice, or a birthday card.
And here's what's fresh: this didn't work before. For years image models painted a stunning picture — and sprinkled crooked, unreadable letters over it. Want a headline? Open an editor and type it by hand. Then on June 3 Reve 2.0 shipped: it first builds a layout — where the title goes, the date, the image — and only then renders. So its signs, menus and posters come out with real, readable type. That's what the whole idea rides on.
Why this one
Everyone needs a poster, constantly: a house party, a garage sale, a birthday, a notice in the building chat. And templates either don't fit your case or they're paid and you still have to fiddle in an editor.
There's little "magic" here. The app is a pipe: it gathers the fields into one tidy request, sends it to the model, gets back a 4K image, shows it. All the difficulty lives in one good prompt.
What you'll learn
- Text inside the image is now a field, not pixels. You don't write a caption on top. You tell the model what text and where — and it draws it as part of the composition.
- Structured input. Not "make it pretty," but separate fields: title, subtitle, date, style. That's what makes the result predictable.
- Editing without re-rendering. Reve 2.0 has an edit endpoint — you can change one line of text without regenerating everything. You'll touch "the image as a layout" for the first time.
A ready starter prompt
Don't ask the agent to "make a poster generator" — it'll guess at fields and style. Give it the scenario, the exact fields, and the limits:
Build an app that generates posters with text.A strong prompt leaves no room for guessing: the form fields are visible, what text goes where is visible, the style and behavior are visible. That's why the lettering doesn't turn to mush — it lands where you asked.
What you end up with
You type "Lyokha's house gig · June 21 · kitchen on Gagarin St," hit the button — and a few seconds later there's a real 4K poster with a straight title and a readable date. Don't like the date font? Change one line, the background stays. You drop the image into the building chat. You never opened a single editor.
Start with one form and one button, take it to the finish — and you'll have a poster generator whose text you're not embarrassed to show.
