Free is intended for design and SVG export. Laser output and G-code export start with Standard. Professional adds the advanced tools listed above. Commercial use is proposed for every edition; you remain responsible for rights to imported content.
A licence that keeps working.
The last eligible paid version remains usable after the included update year. An optional additional year costs $20 for Standard or $40 for Professional; it extends your existing update cutoff when still current, or starts on purchase when the previous entitlement has lapsed. Renewal is not automatic. Device limits cover one user's computers, not separate staff seats. These are suggested launch terms. View an existing licence and manage devices ↗
OPTIONAL AI · PAY AS YOU GO
A little help for your next idea.
Keep the desktop licence separate from AI usage. Suggested one-time welcome credits: Free 20, Standard 100 and Professional 250.
Welcome credits are per verified account, not per device or reinstall. On upgrade, top up to the new edition's allowance; don't add the allowances together. There is no monthly free-credit refill.

Suggested policy: purchased credits do not expire while the service operates; welcome credits expire after 90 days. Show the exact credit charge before confirmation. Charge only for a delivered result; release reservations when generation fails or is blocked. A new variation or user-requested regeneration is a new action. Local drawing, tracing, nesting and SVG export do not consume AI credits.
AI credits require an online account and are separate from a ChatGPT or Google subscription. AI images are artwork starting points, not guaranteed cut-ready vectors. Review and prepare them before machine use. This website currently presents suggested pricing only; credit purchases, balances and AI generation are not enabled.
