Turn a Facebook ad into an on-brand email in 90 seconds

How Cy takes a paid ad, matches your template pixel-for-pixel, pulls the real logo from source, and ships production-ready HTML — then saves the whole thing as a reusable skill.

Your best-performing ad already did the hard part: it earned attention and proved an angle works. So why does turning it into an email take an afternoon of copying, re-cropping, and fighting with table layouts?

It shouldn't. Here's how Cy does it from a single Slack message — and how it gets faster every time you ask.

The problem with ad → email

An ad and an email have different jobs. An ad has one shot to stop the scroll. An email has to earn the open, then earn the click — with more room to tell the story. A good ad→email transform isn't a copy-paste; it's a re-format:

  • The ad headline becomes a curiosity-driven subject line, not a straight copy.
  • The ad hook becomes the hero, with space to add the proof the ad couldn't fit.
  • The single ad CTA becomes a clear button — plus a secondary text link.

And it all has to land on-brand, in HTML that actually renders in Outlook.

How Cy does it

You drop the ad in Slack and tell Cy to match your template. From there it runs the whole workflow:

  1. Reads the ad — extracts the copy, hook, offer, and visual.
  2. Crawls your site — and buckets every product image into hero, bundle, lifestyle, and detail, so the right shot lands in the right section.
  3. Pulls the real logo — grabbing the actual SVG from your site's source instead of faking a text placeholder.
  4. Matches the template — type, spacing, and section structure aligned to your Figma file down to the letter-spacing.
  5. Ships production HTML — table-based, inline styles, Outlook-safe, responsive.

One detail most tools miss: email clients strip position: absolute, so overlaid headlines vanish for most recipients. Cy composites the headline into the hero image instead — the way professional email designers do it.

What you get

Every variant is checked against your brand before it's handed back — tone, banned words, and a single clear CTA enforced. The output isn't a mockup; it's a draft sitting in Klaviyo, ready to send.

It gets faster every time

Here's the part that compounds: once Cy works out how to do this for your brand, it saves the workflow as a reusable skill. The next ad→email doesn't start from scratch — it starts from everything Cy already learned about your template, your imagery, and your voice.

That's the difference between a tool you operate and a teammate who gets better the more you work together.
