Every article gets its own look.
Send Artycle a finished draft. It proposes a palette with a rule for what each colour means, then makes a set of illustrations in it: checked for stray lettering and miscounted details, captioned, described for screen readers, and ready to paste into Medium or Substack.
The colour carries the argument.
Each article gets a palette no other article has had, and one rule for it. In this set rose is only ever people, so following the pink means following the humans, which is the essay's point: the work moves, and people stay at the centre of it.

The Stair That Builds Itself
What comes back with every image
- Caption
- What the Hand Keeps
- The title readers see under the image. Part of the story, like a title on a gallery wall.
- Alt text
- Linocut of an open tool roll of chisels, mallet, plane, square and saw; two robot claws reach in from above, one pink human hand below.
- What a screen reader says: what is actually there, plainly.
- Checked before you see it. Every image is inspected for invented lettering, wrong counts and colour that breaks the rule, and remade if it fails.
- Your own diagrams, in the same look. Charts and tables you already have are rebuilt in the set's palette, with your exact words.
- A page that pastes it all in. The article with every image in place, plus copy buttons for the SEO title, description and tags.
