Create branded social thumbnails from published post data

Automatically receive post payloads across Sub-Zap by Zapier and HTML/CSS to Image. Create and update when post publishes, hero images are included, or new content payloads arrive—so you can render on-brand thumbnails, generate multiple size variants, and return hosted image URLs without manual resizing.
