R² Concierge Brochure Generator

Generate professional, on-brand brochures for R² Concierge experiences, events, and trips.

⚠️ CRITICAL: Discovery Conversation First

NEVER generate a brochure immediately. Always have a discovery conversation first to fully understand the requirements. Only proceed with generation after the user confirms all details.

Step 1: Discovery Questions (MANDATORY)

Before creating ANY brochure, ask the following questions. Use the AskUserQuestion tool or ask conversationally:

1. Purpose & Audience

• Who is this brochure for? (potential client, existing client, partner, internal use)
• What's the goal? (sell a package, confirm a booking, showcase capabilities, proposal)
• Will this be sent directly or presented in person?

2. Content & Tone

• What tone should it have? (luxury/exclusive, adventure/relaxed, cultural/educational, informational)
• What should be emphasized? (specific activities, accommodation quality, unique experiences)
• Anything to exclude or downplay?

3. Pricing & Details

• Should pricing be included? (yes with breakdown, yes total only, no - available on request)
• How specific should accommodation details be? (exact hotels, star rating only, or flexible)
• Any disclaimers or terms needed?

4. Visual & Format

• Do you have images to include? (client photos, stock images, or leave placeholder spaces)
• Output format needed? (PPTX only, PDF only, or both)
• Approximate length? (quick overview 3-4 slides, standard 5-7 slides, detailed 8+ slides)

5. Source Material

• Where is the itinerary coming from? (email, document, verbal description)
• Is all the information final, or are some details TBC?
• Any specific wording or descriptions that must be used verbatim?

Step 2: Confirm Understanding

After gathering answers, summarize back to the user:

"Let me confirm before I create the brochure:

- **Purpose**: [Client proposal for X]
- **Audience**: [Potential client / Corporate group / etc.]
- **Tone**: [Luxury & exclusive / Adventure-focused / etc.]
- **Pricing**: [Include total / Exclude / etc.]
- **Format**: [PPTX + PDF / X slides]
- **Key emphasis**: [specific highlights]

Does this look correct? Any changes before I proceed?"

Step 3: Only Then Generate

Once the user confirms, proceed with brochure generation following the design system below.

// Last item to next day header: 0.6"

slide.addText("Day 1: Arrival", { x: 0.65, y: 1.3, ... });   // Day header
slide.addText("Line item 1", { x: 0.65, y: 1.75, ... });     // +0.45
slide.addText("Line item 2", { x: 0.65, y: 2.1, ... });      // +0.35
slide.addText("Line item 3", { x: 0.65, y: 2.45, ... });     // +0.35

slide.addText("Day 2: Explore", { x: 0.65, y: 3.05, ... });  // +0.6 from last item

AI Image Generation (Nano Banana Pro)

When images are needed, integrate Google's Gemini API with brand-aligned prompts.

Image Style Guidelines

All generated images should evoke the R² brand:

• Luxury & exclusivity — not touristy or crowded
• Warm, golden tones — sunrise/sunset lighting preferred
• Editorial quality — could appear in Condé Nast Traveler
• Human connection — local culture, authentic moments
• Aspirational but authentic — exclusive without being sterile

Master Style Prefix (use for all images)

const IMAGE_STYLE_PREFIX = `
Luxury travel editorial photography for high-end travel brochure.
Style: Condé Nast Traveler, National Geographic Traveler aesthetic.
Mood: Warm, aspirational, exclusive, authentic.
Technical: Golden hour lighting, shallow depth of field, rich colors,
professional composition with rule of thirds.
NO: tourists, crowds, selfies, phones, modern signage, trash, vehicles.
`;

Prompt Structure

Each image prompt should include:

1. Location/Subject — specific landmark or scene
2. Time of day — golden hour, sunrise, dusk (warm light)
3. Atmosphere — misty, serene, dramatic, intimate
4. Human element — local in traditional dress, lone traveler (scale/connection)
5. Color palette — warm earth tones, brand greens, golden accents
6. Exclusions — no tourists, modern elements, crowds

Example Prompts

Cover (Hero Image):

Borobudur temple at dawn, Indonesia. Ancient stone stupas silhouetted against
dramatic orange and gold sunrise sky. Layers of misty volcanic mountains in
background. Morning mist rising through jungle. Single contemplative figure
in traditional dress adds scale. Ethereal, spiritual atmosphere.

Beach/Surf Scene:

Pristine Kuta Beach, Lombok at sunset. Turquoise water meeting white sand
cove surrounded by dramatic green headlands. Traditional wooden outrigger
boat on sand. Lone surfer silhouette walking with board. Palm trees framing
shot. Golden hour, warm coral and teal tones. Untouched paradise feeling.

Cultural/Heritage:

Old Batavia Jakarta at golden hour. Historic Dutch colonial architecture -
white buildings with green shutters reflecting in cobblestone plaza. Local
vendor with traditional bicycle cart. Vintage charm, heritage atmosphere.
Rich warm tones - amber, cream, forest green. No modern elements.

API Integration

const { GoogleGenerativeAI } = await import("@google/generative-ai");
const genAI = new GoogleGenerativeAI(API_KEY);
const model = genAI.getGenerativeModel({
  model: "gemini-2.0-flash-exp-image-generation"
});

// Combine style prefix with specific scene prompt
const brandedPrompt = `${IMAGE_STYLE_PREFIX}\n\nScene: ${scenePrompt}`;

const response = await model.generateContent({
  contents: [{ role: "user", parts: [{ text: brandedPrompt }] }],
  generationConfig: { responseModalities: ["image", "text"] }
});

When to Use Premium Mode

Ask during discovery: "Would you like the standard professional look or a premium editorial magazine style?"

Use premium for:

• High-value destination trips (golf tours, luxury resorts)
• Corporate incentive packages
• Special occasion experiences
• Proposals to new high-net-worth clients
