These are real renders from the API with the example values in the table below. Switch the size above: the same template lays itself out for all 6 sizes — send size or sizes with the request.
For HR, internal comms and employer branding: employee of the month, kudos and shout-outs. The period runs up an accent tab on the left edge and is shortened past 20 characters; without a photo the spotlight falls on the initials. Wide frames put the portrait beside the text; square and vertical frames put it on top.

accent and theme change per request. For anything more, copy the template into your account: you get an ordinary HTML template with the same fields that you can edit in the dashboard or through the API.
