ARTDROP BETA TEST — CONFIDENTIAL
Welcome, tester.
ArtDrop is a desktop and web app that automates print-on-demand for artists. You drop an image in, and it creates products, writes descriptions, publishes to your store, and posts to social media — automatically. No manual listing. No copy-pasting. That's what you're testing.
This page gives you everything you need to get started. Pick a persona below, grab the credentials, and try to use the app. If something is confusing, that's exactly the kind of feedback we need.
Need help? See the ? button in the bottom-right corner of your screen? Click it anytime to chat with an AI assistant that knows ArtDrop inside and out. It can answer any question about setup, features, or what to do next.
Testers
Two family testers going in cold — no briefings, no hand-holding. Their confusion is the data.
Stanley Hill
Family Tester
11 years old, tech-savvy, gamer. If Stanley can set this up, anyone can.
Rachel Hill
Family Tester
Fresh eyes, no prior context. Testing the "cold start" experience.
Stanley and Rachel: pick any persona from the section below — whatever sounds interesting. You're not locked in.
1 — Pick Your Persona
Each tester uses a different persona so we can see how the AI handles different art styles, voices, and product mixes. Claim one and stick with it for all your testing.
Elena Vasquez
Verdant Studio
Quiet art for living spaces.
Watercolor botanical illustration — Savannah, GA
Scanned paintings, organic colors, warm descriptive voice. The baseline persona.
Marcus Cole
Cole Works
Loud art for quiet walls.
Digital graphic art — Portland, OR
Bold geometric posters, no EXIF data, terse confident voice.
Janelle Torres
Torres Gallery
Golden hour, every wall.
Portrait & lifestyle photography — Austin, TX
Photos with people, rich EXIF data, storytelling voice. New to POD — the overwhelmed artist.
David Okonkwo
Dark Sky Prints
The universe, on your wall.
Astrophotography — Flagstaff, AZ
Mostly-dark images, specialized EXIF, scientific+poetic voice. Hardest test for the AI.
Priya Menon
Menon Studio
Form and feeling. Nothing else.
Minimalist / abstract art — Brooklyn, NY
Non-representational work, sparse curatorial voice. Hardest copy challenge — no subject, no scene.
Tomás Rivera
Tomas Rivera Art
Bold worlds. Limited runs.
Digital illustration / character design — Austin, TX
Fictional characters, no EXIF, fandom-fluent voice. Tests stickers, cases, and apparel heavily.
2 — Passwords for the App
ArtDrop connects to several online services to do its job — a store to sell on, a place to store images, an AI to write descriptions, and companies that print your art on products. Each one needs a special password (sometimes called a "key" or "token") so ArtDrop can talk to it. We've already set all of these up for you. When the app asks for one during setup, just click the matching value below to copy it, then paste it in.
Printify is a third printing company. Same "Print Providers" step, under Printify.
Step 7 — Backblaze (image storage) → paste in the "Storage" step

3 — Test Images
You'll need 3–5 images that match your persona's art style. Use high-resolution files (.tif, .png, or .jpg). These will be "dropped" into ArtDrop to trigger the full pipeline.
Find images that fit your persona — watercolor botanicals for Elena, bold geometric designs for Marcus, golden-hour portraits for Janelle, deep-sky astrophotos for David, minimal abstract for Priya, illustrated characters for Tomás. Stock images are fine, or use your own work if it fits the style.

Pexels— portraits, lifestyle photography (good for Janelle)
4 — What We Need to Learn
These are the areas we need feedback on. Check them off as you go. We're not telling you how to use the app — if you can't figure something out, that's valuable data.
First Launch
What happens when you open the app for the first time? Can you figure out what to do? Where do you get stuck?
Setup Wizard
Can you get through the setup wizard using the credentials above? Is anything confusing? Do the help texts actually help? Does "Test Connections" work?
Voice Training
Does the voice training understand your persona's style? Does the AI-generated voice profile sound right? Can you refine it?
Templates
Can you add and configure product templates for your persona's product mix? Is the template setup clear?
Your First Drop
Drop an image. What happens? Does the worker start? Can you tell what it's doing? How long does it take? Does it feel right?
Product Quality
Check the products that appeared in the Shopify store. Are the titles good? Descriptions? SEO? Do they sound like your persona wrote them? Would you buy this?
Collection & Organization
Did a collection get created for the artwork? Is it organized well? Does it show up in the store navigation?
Multiple Drops
Drop 2–3 more images. Does the pipeline hold up? Any errors? Does the store start to look like a real store?
Overall Experience
Would you pay $197 for this? What's missing? What surprised you? What frustrated you? What would you tell a friend?
