Thumbnail search finds images for a piece of content by describing what you need rather than guessing at keywords. You describe the subject, mood or composition, and it searches high-quality image sources and returns options suited to video thumbnails, article headers and social cards.
It is aimed at the point in publishing where the writing is done and you need a visual that fits, without spending twenty minutes scrolling stock libraries for something that is nearly right.
Say what you want to see. Describing the mood and composition — "wide shot, muted colours, single figure" — works better than a single noun.
Scan the returned images at thumbnail size, which is how most of them will actually be seen.
Confirm the usage terms at the source before publishing, particularly for commercial use.
