What are pitch mockup skills?

Pitch mockup skills are automated workflows that turn slide deck text into client-branded visual mockups. Instead of waiting for a designer to create comps, you feed in your pitch content and get professional mockups instantly. Think of it like having a design team that works in seconds instead of days.

Common use cases

  • Agency pitches: Generate branded mockups for new business presentations
  • Client proposals: Create visual concepts from text-based decks
  • Campaign planning: Mock up creative directions for stakeholder reviews
  • Pitch deck updates: Refresh existing presentations with new branded visuals
  • Multi-client workflows: Batch-generate mockups for different brand guidelines
  • Internal reviews: Create quick visual concepts before designer handoff

Create pitch mockups step by step

STEP 1: Install and authenticate the CLI

  • On web: Visit picsart.com/cli → Copy the install command → Paste into your terminal
  • On mobile: Not applicable — CLI requires terminal access on macOS, Linux, or Windows
Get the CLI

STEP 2: Set up your pitch mockup workflow

Download and configure the pitch mockup skill:

  • Download the pitch mockup skill from the skills library
  • Add your client's brand guidelines (logo, colors, fonts) to the skill config
  • Define mockup templates (social posts, web pages, ads, etc.)
  • Set output format preferences (PNG, JPG, resolution)

STEP 3: Generate branded mockups

Run the skill with your slide text. The CLI reads your pitch content, applies client brand guidelines, and generates professional mockups in seconds. You'll get multiple variations per slide, ready for your deck.

STEP 4: Review and export for pitch

Check that mockups match client branding: Not perfect? Adjust the skill config and regenerate, or manually refine specific mockups in Picsart editor.

  • Verify brand colors and logo placement match guidelines
  • Check that text is legible and hierarchy makes sense
  • Confirm mockup formats match your pitch deck specs

Tips for best results

💡 Keep brand assets organized

Store each client's logos, colors, and fonts in separate folders. The skill pulls from these files, so clean organization means faster, more accurate mockups.

💡 Start with simple templates

Test the skill with basic mockup formats first (social post, web hero). Once you see how it handles your content, expand to more complex templates like multi-page layouts.

💡 Generate multiple variations

Run the skill with different creative directions in your prompt. Having 3-4 visual approaches gives you options during the pitch and shows creative range.

💡 Use batch mode for big decks

If you have 20+ slides, use the batch feature to process all at once. Set concurrency to 5-10 generations at a time to speed up delivery without hitting rate limits.

Frequently asked questions

Skills are pre-built workflows that automate creative tasks in the Picsart CLI. Think of them as recipes that combine AI models, editing tools, and brand rules to handle specific jobs like pitch mockups, social content, or video edits. You download a skill, configure it with your settings, and run it with a single command instead of manually executing each step.

Yes. Skills are designed to work with simple terminal commands or AI agents like Claude Code and Cursor. You don't need to write code. Download the skill, fill in a config file with your brand assets, and run it with natural language prompts. The skill handles all the technical work behind the scenes.

Create a brand.md file in your skill folder with logo paths, hex color codes, font names, and any brand rules. The skill reads this file before generating mockups and applies those constraints to every output. You can have multiple brand.md files for different clients and switch between them with a command flag.

The skill includes templates for social posts, web pages, mobile screens, billboards, product packaging, and email headers. You can customize these templates or add your own. Output formats include PNG, JPG, and SVG at resolutions up to 4K.
