Getting to Know Motif AI

The most natural way to bring your stories to life.

Motif AI is the new AI-powered creation experience in Motif, formerly known as Arlo. You simply tell Motif AI what your book is about and how you would like it to look, and Motif AI brings your story to life automatically. There are no design tools to learn and no templates to manage!

Motif AI helps arrange your photos into a meaningful visual narrative while keeping you in full creative control. You can refine layouts, captions, and themes at any time. You can create and edit your Motif AI projects across supported devices and on the web. Your work is always saved securely, so you can pick up right where you left off on any device.

 

How Motif AI Relates to Mimeo Photos

Motif AI is part of the Mimeo Photos family and uses the same trusted print quality you may already be familiar with. The difference is how your book is created. Instead of manually arranging photos and layouts, Motif AI uses conversational input and smart design to create your first draft in seconds. You can sign in to Motif AI using the same account you use for Mimeo Photos or Motif. If you do not have an account yet, you will be prompted to create one before starting your project.

 

Products Available in Motif AI

Arlo currently supports:
  • Layflat Photo Books
  • Hardcover Photo Books
  • Softcover Photo Books

Additional formats may be added in the future.


Pricing

There are no additional fees for using Motif AI. All product pricing matches what is listed on our standard product pages and in the Motif or Mimeo Photos builders.

 

Where Your Motif AI Projects Are Stored

Projects created in Motif AI are stored securely in the cloud. This means you can start on one device and continue on another, your work is saved automatically, and you can access your projects from any supported web browser.

Motif AI projects are separate from projects created in Motif Classic or the Mimeo Photos extension to ensure each project maintains its structure and editing style. You can create as many Motif AI projects as you would like.

 

Viewing and Managing Your Motif AI Projects

Your Motif AI projects appear in the My Projects view. From there, you can open and continue editing, duplicate a project, or delete a project you no longer need.

 

Why Motif AI May Be a Great Fit for You

Motif AI is built to make photo book creation feel as natural as telling your story out loud. Describe your trip, event, or memory, and Motif AI creates a starting version of the book for you. You can then review, refine, and personalize the details. Because everything is saved in the cloud, you can return to your project anytime, from anywhere.
