Quality

AI Creative QA

Every creative asset checked against brand, size and text rules before it ships, with a clear pass or fail on each one.

A wrong logo version, a missing disclaimer or an ad sized for the wrong placement can undo good creative work. AI Creative QA checks everything your team or agency produces against your brand rules, channel sizes and required text before it goes live. Each asset comes back as a clear pass, or a fail with the exact rule it broke.

  • A clear pass or fail on every asset before release
  • Each failure explained with the specific rule it broke
  • Brand, size and required-text checks run on whole batches

What it is

AI Creative QA reviews creative that your team or your other tools have already made, checking each asset against your brand rules, channel sizes and required text before anything goes live. It flags what fails, explains why, and passes through what is clean.

Why businesses buy it

Creative review usually depends on whoever has time, and tired reviewers miss small things. Those small things, a missing disclaimer or an outdated logo, become public mistakes or rejected ads. This build gives every asset the same written check before release, so reviewers focus on the few that fail. Designers and agencies get specific feedback rather than vague notes. The Scope Card sets the rules, the sample review round and the destination before you order, so the standard is agreed before anything is checked.

Problems this solves

Off-brand creative from freelancers slips through to live campaigns

Every asset your team or other tools produce is checked against your brand rules before going live. Anything off-brand is flagged with a clear reason.

Wrong sizes cause platforms to crop or reject assets

Channel sizes are part of the check. Assets that do not fit their placement are caught before upload, rather than after a platform rejects them.

Required legal text or disclaimers get left off creative

Required text is checked on each asset. If a disclaimer or mandatory line is missing, the asset is flagged and explained so it can be fixed.

Manual creative review becomes a bottleneck before every launch

Clean assets pass through automatically, and only failures need a person's attention. Reviewers can focus on fixes instead of checking every single file by eye.

A good fit if

You already produce creative in-house or through an agency and need a consistent check before it ships.
Mistakes have slipped through before, wrong logo version, missing disclaimer text, an asset sized for the wrong channel.
You want a written pass or fail on every asset, not a subjective second opinion from whoever is free.
You review creative in one destination, such as a shared drive or CMS, and want that review point automated.

Not the right fit if

You do not yet have creative being produced and need the generation itself, not a check on it. See AI Campaign Creative System.
You run a large creative team and want brand rules governed during generation, so nothing off-brand is made. See AI Brand Compliance Creative System.
You need a full multi-channel production line, not a review step. See AI Ecommerce Creative System.
You need finished videos checked before they publish. See AI Video QA, the video version of this check.
You need more than one destination checked or more than 20 reference examples as the standard. Add a note at checkout for a quote, or start from our Custom AI enquiry form.

How it works

  1. Your brand rules are loaded. Brand guidelines, up to 20 reference examples and your required sizes become the checklist every asset is measured against.
  2. Finished creative is submitted for review, either dropped into your connected drive or CMS, or sent through as a batch.
  3. Each asset is checked on three fronts: brand fit against your guidelines, correct sizing for its channel, and any required text such as a disclaimer or price.
  4. A clear result comes back on every asset: pass, or fail with the specific reason, not a vague quality score.
  5. 25 sample reviews are run and approved with you before the check goes live, so the bar matches what you actually mean by on-brand.
  6. Approved creative is marked ready, and anything that fails stays flagged until it is fixed and resubmitted.

What you provide within 72 hours

Your portal lists these the moment you order. Delivery starts the working day after everything is in and your access is checked.

  • Your brand guidelines and any written rules on logo use, color and required disclaimer text.
  • Between 10 and 20 reference examples of creative you consider correctly on-brand.
  • Access to the one destination where finished creative gets reviewed, such as your drive or CMS.
  • The list of products, offers or topics the creative you are checking covers.
  • The name of the person who approves what counts as a pass during setup.
  • Admin access and API keys for the connected system, shared by adding our team as a user or creating a key you control, never by email.
  • One decision-maker who can sign off the finished rule set before it goes live.
  • An API key for your own AI model account (for example OpenAI or Google Gemini), created for this build with a spending limit.
The 72-hour rule. Send everything on your checklist, including access, within 72 hours of ordering so your build starts on time.

What you receive at handover

  • A creative QA gate that checks assets against your brand rules, channel sizes and required text
  • Rules built from your brand profile and reference examples in the guardrail configuration
  • Flag reports with reasons, delivered to one destination (fixing assets stays with your team)
  • A test report on sample checks you reviewed and approved
  • An admin guide, a recorded handoff session and 30 days of post-launch support

Expected benefits and how to measure them

  • Fewer brand or spec mistakes may reach the public.
  • Review can keep pace with production.
  • Legal and brand requirements can be checked the same way every time.
Issues caught before launch
Count flagged assets in the QA reports each month.
Platform rejections
Track rejected or disapproved assets in your ad platforms, before and after.
Review time per asset
Log manual review time per asset before launch and after.

Before you start: Record recent platform rejections and brand corrections. Note how long manual review takes for a typical batch.

These are things to track, not promised results. Outcomes depend on your data, your team and your market.

Running costs

Running this check after launch costs roughly $20 to $150 a month in AI model usage, depending on how many assets pass through review. A team reviewing a modest weekly batch sits at the low end of that range.

AI usage during the build and testing period is billed the same way, directly in your own accounts, so nothing runs through us.

Custom requirements

If the review needs to cover more than the Scope Card allows, tell us at checkout. You get a written Change Quote, work only starts once you accept it, and your original order keeps its own delivery date regardless. Larger or bespoke projects use the Custom AI request form instead.

Keep it running

Monthly maintenance covers monitoring, fixes, model and platform updates, a monthly health report and small updates to the rule set as your guidelines change. It starts after the 30 days of post-launch support and can be cancelled any month.

$249/mo (the minimum fee, includes 2 change hours)

Optional. Starts after the post-launch support period. Cancel any month.

Questions about this product

What does AI Creative QA cost to set up?

One fixed price covers building your brand, sizing and text checklist and running reviews against one destination. There is no per-asset review fee on top. You see that price, with standard and faster delivery options, in the panel on this page before you order, so it is never estimated after you describe your process.

How long before creative QA is checking our assets?

Delivery time is fixed for each speed and shown in the panel on this page. It runs from the day your intake is complete and access to your drive or CMS is verified. Most of the preparation is gathering your brand guidelines, required sizes, mandatory text and up to twenty reference examples.

Does it replace our designers or just check their work?

It checks work, it does not create it. Creative your team, an agency or another Upmark system produces still gets made the same way; this build adds a consistent pass or fail checkpoint before that creative ships, catching wrong sizes, missing text or off-brand choices before they reach customers.

What does a failed review actually tell us?

Each failed asset comes back with the specific reason, such as an incorrect logo version, a missing required disclaimer, or the wrong dimensions for its channel, rather than a generic quality score. That makes it clear what to fix and resubmit, instead of guessing at what the reviewer meant.

What are the monthly running costs for AI Creative QA?

Expect roughly $20 to $150 a month in AI model usage, which scales with how many assets pass through review rather than a flat subscription fee. A team checking a modest weekly batch of creative usually sits toward the lower end of that range. Heavier review volumes during a launch or a rebrand naturally push toward the higher end of that range for the months it takes.

Can the rules change as our brand guidelines change?

Yes, within the build the 2 rounds of revisions let you adjust the checklist as you refine it against real examples. After launch, updating the rule set for a new logo version or new required text is exactly the kind of change monthly maintenance is built to cover.

Who owns the checklist and review records this builds?

You do. The rule set built from your guidelines, and every pass or fail decision it produces, belongs to you once delivered. We do not reuse your brand guidelines, your reference examples or your review history for any other customer's checklist. That includes the right to export the rule set or move it to another reviewer at any point, with no ongoing license fee attached.

What if the checks are too strict or too loose after launch?

You have five working days after delivery to flag results that do not match what you intended, and we correct the checklist as part of the original build price, not a paid Change Quote. Beyond that window, tuning the rules further runs through monthly maintenance instead. Most early adjustments are small threshold changes, such as how strictly a logo variant or a disclaimer wording is matched, not a rebuild of the rules.

Catch the off-brand asset before it ships, not after.

Order AI Creative QA and it is checking real assets against your rules on a fixed delivery date, with a clear pass or fail on every one.
