Why default playlist covers are generic
Spotify's default cover art is a 4-color gradient that everyone recognizes. For most playlists it's fine — but for the playlists you actually share (the ones you made for friends, or for a moment) you want something more.
tastegraph generates editorial-style cover art that has typography, color blocking, and your playlist's personality baked in. Not AI-generated imagery — typographic, like a real magazine cover.
Three templates, three ratios
- Editorial: serif type, magazine grid, three accent colors
- Modernist: mono type, primary-color blocks, four accent choices
- Risograph: sans type, two-color overlay, three palette choices
Each template ships in 1:1 (cover art / IG feed), 3:4 (portrait), and 9:16 (Stories / Reels / TikTok).
What's the difference vs Canva?
Canva is general-purpose; tastegraph is playlist-specific. The typography choices, color palettes, and layout are all tuned to music metadata — your playlist title and a 5-dimension radar chart are baked in. Canva templates for "playlist cover" are fine but generic; tastegraph's output feels like an editorial print piece.
