How to use it

Replace 'Roast Republic' and the character description with your own brand name and mascot concept. Submit to Ideogram (ideogram.ai) with Magic Prompt OFF to preserve your exact spec. Choose the variation with the cleanest outlines and most balanced color separation. Download and trace in Illustrator or Inkscape to get a true vector for production use.

Pro tips

Ideogram excels at text rendering, add your actual brand name in quotes inside the prompt and it will integrate legibly into the design. Specify the exact number of colors (3–5) to get a genuinely printable result rather than a gradient-heavy image. Describe the mascot's prop and clothing precisely, these details define personality better than adjectives like 'fun' or 'cool'. Request 'suitable for embroidery' or 'suitable for screen printing' to push toward clean, separated shapes.
