Submission guidelines for the template library

Thanks for wanting to share your designs with the margheritaAI community! For a template to be accepted into our public library, it should meet a few simple rules. Here is what we look for.

It has to be about hospitality

margheritaAI is the design tool for the hospitality trade. Your template must have a clear gastro context — usable for restaurants, cafés, bars, delivery services, food trucks and similar businesses. Menus, flyers, posters, vouchers, table tents or social-media posts are exactly right.

Images and rights

The easiest route is to use images, graphics and icons from our in-house library. Then the rights question is settled from the start and your template can be accepted right away.

If you want to upload your own images, this applies: you must own all rights to them, and you assign those rights to us without restriction. This is necessary because we make your template — and the images in it — available to all users under our licence and add them to our central library. Only with a full, perpetual and transferable assignment of rights may we do this on a legally sound basis. Images you do not fully own must not be part of a submission.

Allowed: placeholder text and example content

A template thrives on being easy for others to adapt. That is why placeholder text (for example “Lorem ipsum” or “Your dish here”), example prices and made-up pseudo logos are explicitly allowed and even welcome. Prefer generic placeholders over the real details of a specific venue — so anyone can make the template their own straight away.

What is not allowed

Credit and Featured Designer

As soon as a design is accepted, it goes into the library with your name on it (“Design by you”). Once you have set a public designer handle, your name appears on each of your templates.

After three accepted designs you automatically become a Featured Designer. That unlocks your public profile with a bio and backlinks to your own channels (for example Instagram, Etsy or your website) and highlights you in the library.

No entitlement

Submitting does not create any entitlement — neither to acceptance, to payment, to Featured-Designer status, nor to a design staying in the library permanently. We decide on acceptance and highlighting at our own discretion and may remove templates at any time. A licence or assignment of rights once granted remains unaffected by this.

How the review works

You submit a design from the editor and actively confirm that you hold the rights. We freeze a snapshot — you can keep editing your original. Our team reviews the submission and either accepts it or rejects it with a reason. As long as a submission has not been reviewed yet, you can withdraw it.

Thank you for helping shape margheritaAI — we look forward to your design!
