## What Banana Carousel is

Banana Carousel is a web application that converts a simple content idea into a
complete, premium Instagram carousel concept and a ready-to-paste AI image
prompt. Instead of struggling with structure, visual consistency, and prompt
engineering, a creator enters a brief and receives a finished carousel blueprint
in seconds.

It targets Indonesian content creators, marketers, and agencies first, but works
bilingually (Indonesian and English).

## What the user provides (input)

- Title (optional) and brand name/handle (optional)
- Topic / theme (required)
- Target audience (required)
- Goal of the content (e.g. engagement, education, sales)
- Visual style — one of 8 presets (Cinematic Luxury, Minimal Modern, Bold
  Typography, Soft Aesthetic, Cyberpunk Neon, Editorial Magazine, 3D Render,
  Hand-drawn) plus optional dominant colors and custom style notes
- Number of slides (3–10)
- Output language (Indonesian or English)
- CTA style (follow, save, share, comment, DM, link, or general engagement)

## What the user receives (output)

- A carousel title and a scroll-stopping hook (headline + body)
- Per-slide structure following a storytelling arc: hook → context/tension →
  value/story → peak insight → CTA
- For each slide: headline, body, a detailed English visual prompt, typography
  instruction, and layout instruction
- A global style spec (color palette, mood, typography family, 1080x1350 aspect
  ratio, consistency notes)
- A single "master prompt" (600–1500 words) that can be pasted directly into an
  image model (e.g. Gemini/Imagen) to generate the full set of consistent
  carousel images
- A ready-to-post Instagram caption with a hook line, value summary, CTA, and
  8–15 relevant hashtags

## AI infrastructure

Banana Carousel uses a centralized AI Gateway with a Bring-Your-Own-Key (BYOK)
model: each user supplies their own API keys. Supported providers and models:

- Google Gemini: gemini-2.5-flash, gemini-2.0-flash, gemini-2.5-flash-lite, and
  Gemini 2.5 Pro
- OpenRouter (OpenAI-compatible): Claude, GPT, Gemini, DeepSeek, Qwen, Mistral,
  and other models available on OpenRouter
- Groq (OpenAI-compatible): Llama, DeepSeek, Mixtral and other hosted models

Reliability features:

- Up to 5 API keys per provider
- Smart rotation: on rate limit, quota exhaustion, timeout, or provider error,
  the system automatically moves to the next key, then the next provider, with no
  interruption to the user
- Provider fallback order: Gemini → OpenRouter → Groq
- Response caching for repeated prompts and per-key health monitoring (latency,
  success rate, error rate)

## Languages

Headlines, body text, and captions are produced in the requested language
(Indonesian or English). Visual prompts, typography instructions, and layout
instructions are always in English for optimal image-model performance.

## Pricing model

Access to the application is a one-time lifetime purchase. AI generation runs on
the user's own provider API keys, many of which offer free tiers, so ongoing AI
cost is controlled by the user.
