Now it takes seconds using Aentic AI. If you're a print on demand seller on Shopify, Etsy, or designs that actually sell, this new KD feature is going to blow your mind. In this video, I'll first explain what Aentic AI is and how it can save you time and tokens when creating t-shirt designs. Second, I'll show you three ways to use Agentic AI to create trendy original designs in seconds. And third, I'll show you how I can create listing ready product images insanely fast. All without expensive design tools, being a graphic designer, or having any design millions in sales across two apparel brands, and I help people make money design trends, profitable niches, and sales strategies. So, if that interests what Agentic AI is and how it can save you time and tokens when creating with my own AI design prompts. I also don't always know which AI model is best look anything like what I envisioned in my head. This results in a lot of trial and error when creating designs, which is both time-conuming and costly since you're using AI tokens with every new design generation. So, while AI is meant to make creating designs quick and easy, sometimes it can feel overwhelming, timeconuming, and expensive. Can you relate? Agentic AI was created to solve these problems. It's KD's new done for you way to create with AI and it simplifies the entire process. You just describe what you want in a few words and KD handles the rest. No prompting skills, no settings to learn. And this works for both images and videos. It takes the technical part off your plate. It picks the AI model for you. It writes the full prompt from just a few words and sets the size and settings, then gives you a finished design. Think of Aentic AI like having a creative director on call. It'll reduce overwhelm by making decisions for you. It saves time since you no longer need to create complex prompts and saves you tokens on both ends since you're not spending tokens to have AI write a complex prompt. And you're not burning KD AI tokens regenerating your images because the prompt was too vague or you picked the wrong AI model. All right, now that you know what agentic AI is, let me show you three ways that you can use it to create trendy original designs in seconds. Way one I call the quick and easy way. Step one is to go to KD, select AI hub on the lefth hand menu, then tap Aentic AI. Step two is to input a simple prompt. I just said a t-shirt design for female book lovers. Step three, tap generate. In about 45 seconds, it created this design for me number of design trends. We have these cottagecore elements with all the plants, boho mystical elements with the moon and the stars. It has a really nice color combo with the muted pink, purple, and khaki colors. And this font pairing research. I literally just typed these seven words in simple English. I didn't do anything else. Didn't have to choose the AI model. I didn't have to explain the design layout or spacing. And I didn't have to use AI to write me a prompt. And if I click on the design on the right, I can tap prompt details. and it shows me this super detailed prompt that it wrote for me from my simple sevenword prompt. It also automatically chose the chat GBT image to model for me which happens to be my personal favorite AI model right now for textbased designs. And now we have this beautiful finished design that's ready to be added to print on demand products. From here I could export this design as is or make any other changes by tapping the design going to the prompt box and inputting another simple prompt. Now you might be thinking cool can't any normal AI do this? Let's find out. Back in KD, I'm going to use the exact same simple seven-word prompt, but this time I'm not going to use Aentic. I'll select Nano designs. I'll go ahead and tap generate. And this is what it came up with. It create a finished t-shirt design for me. This is more like a mockup with a design on it. So now for this example, I'm forced to continue prompting it, taking more time and costing more tokens with every generation. And yes, sometimes this way can work, but Aentic AI understood my prompt much better. And Nano Banana Pro example just looks like a mockup. All right, now that you know the strategic way. And this is how I strongly prefer to use it. Anytime I'm creating new designs, I always start with design research. This allows you to give AI examples of actual bestsellers that it can then use as inspiration to create original designs for your niche. And by creating validated designs to sell. For the strategic way, I'm going to start by hopping into Etsy, style designs are super trendy and selling like crazy in 2026. So, I just seeing designs that are actually selling right now. Here, we can see a bunch of new, which is exactly what you want to see when trend spotting. This one here is 1 month old, 2 months, 1 month, 2 months, 1 month, 1 month, 2 months, 2 months, 1 month, 1 month, 2 months, 2 months. I think you get the idea. I want to use Aentic AI to create a t-shirt design for Christians inspired by a bestselling dopamine design. So, let's check this one out. This has the bestseller badge. It's currently in over 20 cards and Everbe estimates that it's sold 96 times in just 2 months. So, let's use this design as inspiration. To do that, I'm going to tap this product image. So, for the strategic way to use Aentic AI, step one is to take a screenshot of the design that you want AI to use as inspiration. Step two, I'll hop back into KD, go to AIHub, and make sure that Aentic AI is selected. Step three, I'll upload the screenshot and input a super simple prompt. I just said, "A t-shirt designed for Christians inspired by this design. Make the fish three colorful sardines." I added in the second line because I don't want AI to copy the exact illustration from the original. Next, I'll tap generate. And just like that, now we have this trendy dopamine style design for the Christian niche. I'm really happy with this. I love the bright dopamine style color combo, the big bold stripes, and the choose any AI model. And now we have this beautiful finished design that's 15-word prompt. Now, we're going to keep building on this design. And I'll show you what that finished design looks like on a trendy t-shirt shortly. But before I do that, let me show you a third way to use Agentic AI for t-shirt designs. Way number one was the quick and easy way. Way number two was the strategic way. Way number three, I'm calling the variance way. So let's say that you liked. And you want to create multiple original variations of that design. You see which sells best. Or you could just pick your favorite and just sell that one. So, let's use Agentic AI to create multiple t-shirt design variations insanely fast. Back in KD, I went to our Christian t-shirt design. This colorful really trendy. But now, I want to make some variations of this design and then choose my favorite to add to a t-shirt. To do that, step one is to tap the is selected and again, I'll just input a simple prompt. I just said three variations of this t-shirt design. We'll go ahead and tap generate. And check design for me. Let's say now that I want to make it even more different than the them out for solid lines. To do that, step one, I'll tap the original design. I'll make sure that Aentic AI is selected, and I'll input a new simple solid stripes instead of stars. Let's go ahead and tap generate. And check it instead of the stars. This first design here is definitely my favorite of them liked it and you just want to see what it would look like in a couple different layouts. To do that, step one is tap the design. Step two, I'm going to go down to the prompt box. Delete the last prompt. As always, I have a Gendic AI layouts. I just said three variations of this t-shirt design. Keep the idea, but be creative and create three different layouts. I'll tap generate. Now I have all these different variations to choose from. And creating these was insanely quick and simple. All right, now you know what a Gentic AI is. How to use it third way and that is how to use it to create listing ready product images. So, let's say out of all these different variants, this one is our favorite and platform you use, but we want some product images for this design and not just the generic images provided by our print on demand company. So, let's do that. Step one, tap the design that you want to use. And I'm actually just going box, delete the last prompt, make sure Aendentic AI is selected, and input a new prompt. And this prompt is a bit longer, but I'm still using super simple English. I just said, "Give me four images of this exact design for my Shopify listing on a Comfort Color 1717 t-shirt in the color ivory. Hex code FFF7E7. Keep the design size and placement the same on each image. Include at least one flatlay mockup and at least one mockup the first four images that it generated in less than a minute. And these are run the exact same prompt. I'm just going to select that design again, go tap generate. And check this out. Now, we have eight product images to choose images actually have the comfort colors neck label, making them even more realistic. But the reason I created more product images than I actually need is because AI is not perfect, and it won't always get it right. For example, I really like this folded flatlay here, but the design is too high and looks really close to the collar compared to these other product images. The design this, I have a few options. First, I could just rerun the prompt. Second, I could reprompt this specific mockup to fix it. Or third, I could just not use consistent. And I'm going to want to make sure that they match up with the sizing and placement in Printify. But overall, these are super good and I can to prompt AI with very simple English. Like I was asking my creative director to do everything for me. And now I have everything to sell this t-shirt online. here, I can tap the drop down. I can upscale the design to make it bigger to background. I'll drag it onto this artboard. And I'm just going to resize it so that the entire design fits in the artboard. If everything looks good, just tap export and download this as a PNG file with a transparent background. Next, for the product images, I can just select whichever ones I want to use. I just tap shift and selected the mockups. And I'll just tap quick export. I'll save these in a JPEG format and tap export. Now I can hop into Printify. I selected the Comfort Color 1717 t-shirt in the color ivory. Let's drag the the design so that it looks like the product images I created in KD. I'll go good, go ahead and tap save product. Here in the mockup library, I can use these mockups provided by Printify. I can use their built-in AI generated feature. But I want to use the product images I created in KD. So to do that, product details page here, we can see the mockups I have from KD. You can I'd have Printify publish this to Shopify, Etsy, Amazon, or whichever platform you're selling on. We are living in the golden age of design, mockup, and video creation. And although AI, including Aentic AI, is not perfect. It's never been faster, easier, or cheaper to create highquality, professional, and realistic product images and videos for printon-demand products.
