Great thumbnails for each video. Better decisions over time.

From individual thumbnails to ongoing collaboration, IRIS designs around each video’s premise and channel context. Our Test Sets add creative alternatives for YouTube testing, helping us apply supported learning to future work.

Designed Around Each Video

Every thumbnail starts with the video’s premise, hook and story — not a fixed template.

Alternatives Worth Testing

For our Test Sets, we develop light variations or different concept directions so you or your team can test meaningful alternatives.

Learning Across Uploads

You or your team run the tests on YouTube. We interpret the results and apply only supported learning to future work.

Built for the YouTube Feed

Every thumbnail is designed to work where it matters most: crowded feeds, small screens and fast viewer decisions.

The experience behind IRIS.

IRIS was founded by Sebas, a qualified graphic designer with more than four years of professional experience working as a freelance YouTube thumbnail designer for creators and brands.

That experience covered concept development, design, revisions, client communication and ongoing delivery. It reinforced the value of understanding each video’s needs while building useful knowledge of the channel over time.

IRIS builds on that experience. We develop video-specific thumbnails, offer testing alternatives when selected, and apply supported learning to future work.

PROCESS

How IRIS Works

Every project starts with understanding the channel and the video. We then develop the thumbnails included in the selected service. For Test Sets, we also create testing alternatives, interpret client-run results and apply supported learning to future work.

Step 01 Our process

Channel Context

Before the first video, we learn the channel's content, audience, desired perception, references, restrictions and current thumbnail process.

IRIS does not guarantee specific CTR, views, subscribers or revenue results. We focus on strong concepts and visual execution, with testing alternatives and evidence-based learning when included in the selected service.
