🖼️ Upload Hero Images – Give Your AI Emails the Visual Edge

Transform your campaigns with custom hero images that Raleon’s AI learns, understands, and uses perfectly in every email.

Great emails start with great visuals. With Raleon, you can upload your own high-impact hero images — and our AI will automatically analyze, tag, and use them smartly across all future campaigns.

No design skills required. Just upload, tag, and let the AI do the rest.


✅ Why Upload Your Own Hero Images?

Your brand’s visuals are powerful storytelling tools. By uploading your own hero images:

  • You ensure on-brand aesthetics in every campaign
  • The AI learns what works best for your product style or theme
  • You enable smarter image selection (e.g., "use this summer beach scene for a promotion")
  • You save time — no need to re-create visuals manually
🚀

Upload once. Use everywhere. Let the AI do the heavy lifting.


🔧 How to Upload Hero Images (Step-by-Step)

Step 1: Open “Upload Hero Images”

  1. Go to your Learn Raleon panel (left sidebar).
  2. Scroll down and click on “Upload Hero Images”.
  3. Click the “Upload Now” button.
📌

This opens the Email Design section, where you’ll manage all visual assets.


Step 2: Choose Your Upload Method

You have three options:

OptionUse Case
Single UploadAdd one image at a time (ideal for testing)
Drag & DropQuick upload by dragging files into the area
Bulk Upload (Recommended)Upload multiple hero images at once
📌

We recommend using bulk upload when adding several assets at once.


Step 3: Assign an AI Image Tag

Before uploading, make sure to:

  • Select the AI image tag: Hero Image
    ⚠️

    This tells Raleon’s AI how to categorize and use this asset.

🎯

Why it matters: The tag helps the AI understand context — such as whether an image is promotional, seasonal, product-focused, or lifestyle-driven.


Step 4: Upload & Let AI Process

  1. Select your hero images (e.g., summer-sale-beach.png, new-arrival-luxury.jpg)
  2. Click Open → then Update

⚡️ Raleon’s AI will now:

  • Automatically generate descriptive metadata for each image
  • Analyze visual content: colors, objects, mood, text, and layout
  • Tag it with relevant insights (e.g., “summer theme,” “outdoor scene”)

This takes just a few seconds — and gives the AI deep context to use your images smarter.


Step 5: Verify & Add Details

Once uploaded:

  • You’ll see your hero images appear in the Email Design Assets section.
  • Click Edit on any image to add custom details like:
    • Photo shoot name or campaign reference
    • Seasonal theme (e.g., “Winter Collection”)
    • Model names, location tags, or creative direction notes

These details help the AI make even smarter decisions when selecting images for future emails.


🔄 What Happens Next?

Every time Raleon generates an email:✅ The AI recognizes your hero images as valid choices ✅ It selects the right one based on context (e.g., “spring sale” → use spring-themed image) ✅ It can update text overlays, pricing, or call-to-action elements directly within the image ✅ All assets stay synced with your Klaviyo library

🎯

Example: The AI sees a summer promotion → picks your beach-sale.png hero → adds “50% Off!” badge automatically.
