FAQ & troubleshooting

My image isn't updating

Social platforms cache OG images hard. After changing a template or title, force a re-fetch with the platform's debugger (X Card Validator, LinkedIn Post Inspector, Facebook Sharing Debugger). OGKit also caches by template + parameters, so a brand-new parameter combination always renders fresh.

What's the watermark and how do I remove it?

Free-plan renders carry a small “Made with OGKit” mark. Upgrading to Pro ($7.99/mo) removes it and lifts the caps.

What are the free limits?

Live renders are never capped — your og:images always work. The free plan covers 1 template (one domain) with up to 3 curated pages, plus the watermark. Pro is unlimited on templates and pages, drops the watermark, and unblurs your usage analytics.

What size are the images?

Always 1200×630 PNG — the ratio X, LinkedIn, Slack, Facebook, and iMessage expect.

Which crawlers are supported?

Any crawler that reads standard og:image / twitter:image tags — which is all of the major ones. OGKit just serves a normal image URL.

Can I use my own domain?

Custom render domains (serving images from your own subdomain) are coming soon for Pro.
