AI Podcast Cover Generator

Directories expect square artwork. Apple Podcasts asks for between 1400×1400 and 3000×3000 pixels, in JPEG or PNG and RGB colour, and Spotify follows similar rules. We export exactly 3000×3000, the size most hosts recommend. Your cover must not use other brands' logos or misleading text, so keep the show name and a strong visual.

Most listeners see your cover at the size of a fingernail in a podcast app. One bold symbol, two or three colours and a short, heavy show name beat a detailed illustration every time. Test it: shrink the image to 60 pixels wide. If you can still tell what the show is about, it works.

• True crime: dark palette, a single object (a magnifying glass, a fingerprint), high contrast.
• Business and tech: clean geometry, one accent colour, a bold sans-serif name.
• Comedy and chat: bright colours, playful illustration, the hosts as caricatures.
• Education: a simple icon for the topic and a calm, readable layout.

For music releases, use the album cover generator instead.

• Too much text: episode lists, taglines and hosts' names become unreadable at app size.
• Low resolution: anything under 1400×1400 pixels may be rejected by Apple Podcasts.
• Other brands: app logos, microphones with real brand marks or celebrity likeness can cause problems.
• Thin, light fonts: they disappear on small screens. Use heavy weights and strong contrast.
• Changing the cover often: listeners recognise shows by their artwork. Refresh it rarely and deliberately.
