About curate.ink
curate.ink is a web tool for app developers who need App Store screenshots without hand-building them in a design program. You upload your app's UI, describe the look you want, and it generates marketing screenshots that follow Apple's size requirements, which you can download as PNG files.
Rather than fixed templates, it applies AI to edit images, remove backgrounds, and mask elements so the result fits your brand. Device frames for current iPhone and iPad models are scaled and aligned automatically, and the tool can push the finished assets straight to an Apple developer account through App Store Connect instead of exporting zip files. The site has a pricing page and a sign-in for returning users.
