To understand how Napkin AI works better, let’s get into a few practical examples where this tool shines.
Company History Graphics
Now imagine that you’re working on a website and want to post on this page some visual presentation of your company history. Instead of spending hours in the traditional graphical design tool drawing up the timeline, you just input the key milestones.
For example: 1995: Company founded 2000: Became profitable 2005: First million dollars earned in sales
Statistical Data Visualization
Yet another excellent use case is statistical data visualization for reports or newsletters. For example, when you want to report customer acquisition channels based on a survey, you may need to input the following data:
5% from cold calls
45% via cold emails
10% via conferences
40% via word of mouth

For instance, if some alterations need to be made to the percentages within a chart, or if one design element deserves tweaking, this can be accomplished directly through the use of the tool.
Being in a beta version, the updates will most probably be dictated by user feedback. It is not out of question that integrations with more tools like Canva, or inclusion of very advanced design capabilities, may happen.
The game-changer here is that Napkin AI; almost an instant generation of high-quality images directly from text, and it increases the productivity of content creation while raising the quality level of their output. Therefore, when it continues to grow and improve, Napkin AI may revolutionize the way work in digital space is approached about graphic design.
