How to Use Pomelli in 2026: Build Your Brand, Campaigns, Product Photos, and Website

Pomelli is a Google Labs AI marketing tool that helps businesses turn brand information into campaigns, product imagery, brand guidelines, and website drafts. To use Pomelli effectively, first build an accurate Business DNA, add products to the Catalog, generate the required asset, and then review every claim, image, layout, and call to action before publishing.


In Simple Terms


Pomelli acts like an AI-assisted marketing workspace for small businesses.

It studies your website or uploaded brand information, creates a structured profile called Business DNA, and uses that profile to generate marketing content that follows your colors, fonts, images, values, and tone.

The tool originally focused on social campaigns. It now also supports product Photoshoots, Catalog items, Brand Books, and websites.

Pomelli begins with a structured brand profile and uses it to keep later marketing assets visually and verbally consistent.

Step 1: Open Pomelli and Check Availability

Open Pomelli through Google Labs and sign in with a Google account.

Pomelli is available only in supported countries and currently supports English. Google’s present country list includes India, the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, much of Europe, and many additional markets. Users must be at least 18, and some features can differ by country.

Google says Pomelli is currently available at no charge and allows several hundred image and video generations. Because it remains an experiment, those limits and pricing could change.

Step 2: Build Your Business DNA

Business DNA is the foundation of Pomelli. It stores information such as brand fonts, colors, values, images, assets, and Catalog items.

You can create it in three ways.

Build Business DNA from a Website

Select Let’s go, enter your business website, and continue. Pomelli analyzes the site and creates a draft brand profile. Google says this analysis may take up to eight minutes.

Review everything carefully. Check:

  • Brand description and values
  • Colors and font choices
  • Images and logo usage
  • Tone of voice
  • Product and service information

A website with bot protection or CAPTCHA may not work because Pomelli needs access to analyze it.  Build Business DNA Without a Website

Select No website yet? and then From scratch.

You can upload product documents and photos or chat with Pomelli Agent to explain your business. The agent can then generate a Business DNA profile from those materials. Google added this workflow so new businesses can use Pomelli before they have an established website.

Start From a Template

Businesses with limited brand material can also choose a template. Treat the result as a starting point, not a finished identity. Replace generic values, imagery, and tone with information specific to your business.

Step 3: Add Products or Services to the Catalog

The Catalog helps Pomelli generate more relevant campaigns and photoshoots.

You can add a product by entering its specific page URL. Alternatively, add it from scratch by providing its name, description, and an image. Pomelli stores these records so they can be reused in later campaigns.

Write factual descriptions. Include the intended customer, main benefit, differentiator, materials or specifications, and any restrictions. Avoid exaggerated claims that cannot be proven.

Step 4: Create a Marketing Campaign

Open Campaigns, select a product, and generate a campaign. Pomelli first creates a campaign brief that you can edit before confirming it.

A stronger prompt should include:

Create a launch campaign for our handmade ceramic coffee mugs. Target design-conscious home buyers. Emphasize small-batch production and dishwasher-safe materials. Use a calm, premium tone. Create a vertical social creative with a clear “Explore the collection” call to action.

After generation, review each creative. Pomelli lets you change the image, headline, description, call to action, typography, and other visual elements. A Fix layout option can correct obvious layout problems. Animation is currently available for 9:16 campaign creatives.

You can also add up to three images and a product URL as campaign ingredients to ground the result in actual product information.

Step 5: Use Pomelli Photoshoot

Photoshoot turns a basic product image into studio-style or lifestyle imagery.

Choose a product, select a professionally curated template or a suggested option, generate the image, and refine the result. Pomelli applies the business’s visual identity and lets users download the result or save it to Business DNA for later campaigns.

Use clear source photos with the complete product visible. Inspect generated images for changed labels, distorted packaging, incorrect materials, unrealistic proportions, or added product features.

Step 6: Generate a Brand Book

After completing Business DNA, Pomelli can create a brand book containing brand fonts, colors, custom images, and identity guidance.

Review whether the guidelines genuinely represent the business. A generated brand book should document approved decisions; it should not invent the positioning, customer promise, or legal rules for the brand.

Step 7: Create and Publish a Website

Pomelli can generate, customize, preview, and publish a website after Business DNA is ready.

Open Websites, select Create Website, and regenerate if you need another version. You can request changes through prompts, edit the Business DNA used across the site, preview the result in a new tab, set a custom URL suffix, and turn publishing on or off.

Before publishing, check mobile layout, product details, contact information, privacy requirements, accessibility, forms, image rights, and whether the site accurately represents your business.


What to Check Before Publishing Pomelli Content


Do not publish the first generation automatically.

Confirm that product claims are accurate, prices and offers are current, spelling is correct, calls to action lead to the right destination, images do not misrepresent products, and the asset follows platform dimensions.

Checklist for reviewing Pomelli campaign assets for product accuracy, brand voice, design consistency, copyright, and final approval
AI can accelerate campaign production, but every asset still needs a product, brand, legal, and quality review.

You must also have the necessary rights to uploaded and generated materials. Google’s help guidance says users should not share copyrighted content without the required rights.

Common Pomelli Mistakes

The biggest mistake is accepting an inaccurate Business DNA. Every later asset depends on it.

Other common mistakes include vague prompts, incomplete Catalog descriptions, too many messages in one creative, publishing unrealistic product photos, and assuming AI-generated marketing claims are automatically safe.

Pomelli is still an experimental product, so delays, failed image generations, interface changes, and inconsistent outputs can occur.
