Background and pain points
Every launch, restock and promotion needs fresh ad creative, and each image must match the logo, brand colors, approved claims and placement size. General image models make good pictures but struggle to keep a brand consistent, and product packaging and text often drift. Krea's approach is to narrow a general model into a version that is specialized for one job.
Architecture highlights
According to Krea's official blog, Ad Studio is the first Krea 3 Expert, a version of Krea 3 tuned for a single task, and Krea says more Experts are coming. The flow has three steps. After you enter a URL, Ad Studio researches the site and builds a brand kit with logo, colors, fonts, description, tone of voice, audience and selling points, and it also pulls products with photos and prices, reading the catalog directly for Shopify stores. You then choose placements (Instagram feed at 4:5 and 1:1, Stories and Reels at 9:16, landscape at 16:9) and products, up to 12 ads per batch. The brand kit is passed to Krea 3 on every ad, and copy comes from the selling points you approved. Afterwards you can ask Krea Agent to change headlines, backgrounds, products or sizes, and preview ads in Facebook, Instagram and Reels mockups.
Benchmarks
Krea has not published benchmarks or comparisons with other models. It reports one timed run on a real store: the brand kit was ready in 49 seconds, six Story ads took 2 minutes 28 seconds, and pasting the URL to downloading the first ads took about five minutes. These are vendor-run numbers with no third-party reproduction yet.
Getting started
Ad Studio is live at krea.ai/ad-studio on every paid plan from Basic up. Brand research and product import are free, and ads consume compute units like other Krea 3 generations. For developers, the notable part is that it also works through the Krea MCP server, so Claude can research a brand, pick products and generate ads using the same brand kits as the web app. Krea's official account also replied that an API is coming in the next few days. Review the auto-extracted selling points and prices before generating so expired promotions do not end up in ads.
