Taste as Method

Our images aren't prompted — they're taught, by a roomful of artists.

Three reusable assets behind every image

Click Reader doesn't generate images from a single prompt. It composes them out of three reusable assets — visual, knowledge, and mechanism — each callable by the pipeline.

01 · Visual asset

405

Art reference library

Hundreds of curated photographs, paintings, and film stills. Each tagged with an 11-dimension visual signature (light, composition, medium, era, culture, mood…) and recombined into the picture this book deserves.

02 · Knowledge asset

691

Photography / painting RAG

We break visual language into entries an LLM can search: light direction, compositional rhythm, lens grammar, color psychology. Agents reach for these when writing prompts.

03 · Mechanism asset

Workflow + agent design

Seven pipeline steps + five agent decisions. Assets aren't piled up — they're scheduled by a system where every step is observable, replayable, tunable.

Still growing — tell us what is missing.

Art reference library

Wall arrangement, density first. Every image here makes an aesthetic claim before Click Reader translates books into pictures.

Photography / painting RAG

Visual language broken into entries an LLM can retrieve. Agents don't lean on general knowledge when writing prompts — they pull from here. So every choice has a why.
